Here's a list of just SOME of the obvious quid pro quos (both foreign and domestic) from just the first year of his second term:

*Qatar luxury jet & U.S. air base (May 2025): Qatar gifts Trump a $400M Boeing 747; weeks later U.S. hands Qatar control of an Idaho Air Force base.

*UAE $2B crypto investment & AI chips (May 2025): UAE pours money into Trump crypto project; Trump lifts export ban on advanced AI chips to UAE.

*Crypto firms donate → SEC cases dropped (Mar 2025): Consensys, Crypto.com, Gemini donate to inaugural; their multi-year SEC probes quietly ended.

*Saudi billions in Trump crypto & new arms deals (Feb 2025): Saudi funds Trump family crypto; Trump expands $110B arms package and military aid.

*Paul Walczak pardon (May 2025): Mother donates $1M to MAGA Inc.; convicted tax cheat son pardoned one month later.

*Tariff exemptions for companies that donated to Trump's 2024 campaign, super PACs like America PAC, the Republican National Committee, and his inaugural committee. (Apr 2025): These include: ExxonMobil, Chevron, Tesla, Apple, Ford, General Motors, Stellantis, and Reyes Holdings. These companies got personal tariff waivers and/or merger approvals after they made payments.

*Companies pay millions in Trump settlements & book Trump properties; DOJ/FTC suddenly green-light blocked mergers. This includes T-Mobile (merger with UScellular), Hewlett Packard Enterprise (acquisition of Juniper Networks), Microsoft (completed merger with Activision Blizzard), Capital One (merger with Discover), and Union Pacific (proposed $85 billion acquisition of Norfolk Southern). Paramount Global, Union Pacific, Capital One, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Microsoft, and T-Mobile all booked events and stays totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars at Mar-a-Lago and Trump National Doral in 2025, shortly before or during fast-tracked approvals of their major mergers.

*From February to July 2025, Trump froze $8 billion in congressionally approved foreign aid with no evidence of fraud, then quietly redirected portions to Qatar and the UAE shortly after those nations invested billions in Trump family crypto and real estate ventures.

Trump choosing soccer ⚽ over football 🏈 at be what finally ends this traitor.

Now that Indiana has rejected the full gerrymander (rather than the partial one that currently exists) I will be curious to see if/how Trump follows through on his promise.

It would be ironic if Trump's actions push Indiana voters to reject trumpism all together.

Trump is threatening to withhold ALL federal funds to the state of Indiana unless the GOP there passes the Gerrymandering bill.

Things the media would write about if Republicans claimed that Dems did it, even if there is no proof.

Yes as I posted on the other thread. The most corrupt sports org is honoring the most corrupt president. How befitting. I wasn’t kidding. It’s gross. Eeeewwww.

This is the worst corruption in over a 100 years and it will only get worst. Thanks republicans!

They’ve convinced themselves the Dems have done it, so it’s perfectly fine when Trump engages in breathtaking corruption. Not that corruption is bad and we should root it out in all forms. Gives you insight into the corrupt brain of the average MAGA - they’d do the exact same thing if they had the chance. No morals, no sense of right and wrong or public good. Just greed and self interest. Antisocial trash.

Trump is all corruption, all the time. Most of us knew this. MAGA is dumb as rocks or criminals themselves.

Some call it quid pro quo, others call it corruption.

America the beautiful, the land of the free, is f*cked 😥. Trump keeps shitting on it and no one is stopping him.

We see this with pardons, with broadcast networks, with Qatari jets that will serve as AF1 (maybe) before becoming Trump's personal property laundered through his presidential library - if corruption is out in the open he thinks it's fine.

This is every day now across multiple topics and issues.
