Lol. This guy has the audacity to try and claim he’s stepping down because that was his plan all along. Has nothing to do with his cartoonish level of greed and the billion dollar crime he helped commit.
I’ve been thinking about how it’s a good thing we don’t follow ancient systems of justice anymore, you know the whole drawn and quartered, iron bull type justice. Totally barbaric and inhumane, glad it doesn’t exist anymore (well, in this country anyway). But you know what? Those systems of justice were especially designed for shitdicks like this. We used to get real creative with how we handled people that just abused the shit out of large groups of people. And when your co conspirator ends up with half of his torso on a stake in the public square, you think fucking twice about committing a billion dollars worth of fraud.
I’m joking of course, but these over the top crimes simply go unanswered and these ghouls more often than not just walk free and get to pretend like nothing happened. It’s why we have the entire trump crime family walking around like they did nothing wrong. Yeah, when it’s that level of greed and arrogance, forgive me for wanting to see the people step in and handle it old world style.
I really wish crimes like these were punished proportionately. Forcing poverty on people is violence and it shouldn’t be possible to duck responsibility. So often they just go somewhere else and run another scam.
And that’s the thing. Yeah on paper this guy only committed you know, a few hundred million dollars worth of crime. No biggie. But what’s the downstream effect of that? A single mother couldn’t afford a house that should have been affordable so had to move to a poverty stricken area. She no longer had access to a safe and reliable grocery store so her kids get sick more often. Her son missed a lot of school from illness so he fell behind. With poor grades he lost his chance of higher education and eventually due to proximity got in with a gang. He dies at 17 in gang violence. Can you directly tie the two together? Not in a court of law, but that’s the reality with shit like this.

Violent punishment is less effective in deterring actions than a certainty of being caught and nonviolently punished. We need less bronze bulls and more fines exceeding gains by significant factors and rehabilitation periods that land every single time someone burns some of the commons for personal profits.
I thought it was for the Catholics/Protestants/Other-type-of-Protestants?
Well pick your time in history. The muslim nations had their version, Christian nations had theirs. And so on. Again it’s good we don’t adhere to the old ways anymore (which if we are being honest we just rebranded all of that and made it more palatable). But at least back then if you were just a massively unpopular dickbag who fucked over lots of people you got a little street justice. Hell the Romans would erase you from history. We don’t even know all of the people that got this treatment since again, they were erased from history.
I’d love nothing more than to scrub the trump name from history and we all pretend they never existed.
Ah yes psychotic bloodlust. Always nice to have.
Far better than unabatable, rampant greed. Fucking losers clutching your pearls forget what kind of pain and misery these people inflict on others.
You want a monster? Look in the mirror. You overlook the suffering OF MILLIONS just to spare the feelings of the asshole responsible for the misery.
You are beyond pathetic. You are beyond useless. Your ability for empathy is BROKEN when you overlook so much suffering to spare a few. Truly despicable.
All of those assumptions and accusations simply from being told that bloodlust isn’t healthy. Unironically you should look in the mirror. And so should the people upvoting your ignorant hatred
You are literally incapable of understanding the Paradox of Tolerance. The filthy rich are already in an intolerant condition. You should treat them the same as gangs roving the streets opening fire, because they ARE WORSE for society than that.
The filthy rich have ALREADY violated the public trust. I’m sorry you’re too stupid to understand how people harm you when the harm isn’t physical.
You know nothing about me, or apparently, anyone else
