Life is neither laundering money nor is it a reality TV show. Trump was able to do both of the former, because he had peons doing it for him. He was a useful idiot for Russian oligarchs- who no doubt laundered lots of cash through his properties (though I'm sure the Trump laundry was available to the ME as well). And as for being a reality TV host...well...I can't think of any brain trusts doing the job- can you? They all seem like feckless morons. And although the US had a robust bureaucracy, Trump has been doing his utmost to destroy it, which further imperils the rest of us because it's a Good Thing to have food inspected, and water tested, and dumping watched and other really great watchdogs on duty. I'm sure food borne illnesses kill more people than illegal aliens- I don't even need to look it up- but I will. Want to be scared shitless? Worry about the shit (literally) in your food:

cdc.gov

3000 probably die a year- but in a "good" year, without food inspectors on the job, we can probably top that. Hold onto your barf bags.
