I fuked up and mistook Trump for these guys, but he is selling bibles for $60, so there is that.

(And, I'm not entirely sure which is worse. One is taking very obvious bribes, another is grifting old people. Not really a fan of either)

That fundraiser is netting Biden $25 million though. Biden is crushing it in fundraising while Trump and the RNC are struggling badly

Trumps doesn't need it - he has Jack smith, James, and Willis doing it for free.





Op as far as the Bible goes - I don't see that grifting old people at all. For the types is families that use books like he's selling (family reading hour, etc) it's a fair price for a 1 stop shop family reading stuff - constitution, king James, bill of rights, etc.

He's mainly doing it as helping promote for Lee Greenwood.

One is a political fundraiser, and obvious overt corruption (nobody is paying $500K because they just want a picture) while blatantly circumventing donation laws...

https://www.fec.gov/updates/contribu...de,)(1)(B))%3B
The limits on contributions made by persons to candidates (increased to $3,300 per election, per candidate) (52 U.S.C. § 30116(a)(1)(A));
The limits on contributions made by persons to national party committees (increased to $41,300 per calendar year) (52 U.S.C. § 30116(a)(1)(B));
... and the other is selling overpriced goods to gullible, but willing, people -- probably old ones.

Not sure why it's always a game to play pretend when "your side" does things that are wrong and immoral.

$60 to save your soul from eternal damnation versus $500k for a express trip to the p3do section of Hell.

But I can see why you guys would want to stick together.

If Biden came into my ice cream shop to get a double dip I'd just walk out. I can't believe libs would pay 6 figures just to get their hair sniffed and nipples pinched.

But people will pay that. Nobody would pay that much to have their picture taken with Biden.

If Biden came out with shoes, nobody would buy them.

What do you mean "if" Trump did this?

Y'all have short memories when it comes to that dude and his $100k a plate dinners at Mar A Lago.

Entrance to an exclusive gathering, then. Probably serving a lot of Cheese Pizza with walnuts, amiright? Don't leave behind any handkerchiefs.

Unless I also get a coupon for two free nights in the Jungle Room then count me out.
Should a couple spend $100,000 at this event, they would receive “priority seating” and a picture with the former president. A sum of $250,000 gets a private dinner with Trump, a picture, and “VIP seating.” The first ten to purchase will also get a two-night stay at Mar-a-Lago.

Touche'

Trump appears to be worse in this, then. Not only has he also done the absurd $250K 'dinners', he's also peddling overpriced Bibles. So, until Biden strikes a deal with Blue Bell (or, more likely Ben and Jerry) to sell a carton of ice cream for $35, Trump is a bit worse off in this exchange.

I still agree with the premise of your OP tho. It's obscene how access to the political establishment is auctioned off to the highest bidder.

This one flew right over your head.. I didn't set this precedent, the left did by constantly crying about Trump's business/donations/etc. I dont and didnt care when anyone did this.

Perfect example of the problem with the left, they set loony precedents and then cry when their new standard is to be upheld for them as well.

It didn't fly over my head. We don't have to speculate how NYPat and Kingfabian would react if Trump did this, because it be like it do and Trump did do dis.

So if we want to criticize those two specific posters for some reason we can just pull up the thread when Trump did it and then compare it to their posts in this thread.

whatever man, my point stands. The left likes to set stupid precedents and shreek when they have to live by them.

it's in the OP.
Are you claiming no pictures allowed at the $500k tea party?
either way they are asking for $500k and you have your panties in a wad over Trumps $100k.
