1. It is an all out heist from the taxpayer.

And an all desecration of the institutions of government.

2. And every voter that has recently cast an (R) vote is part of the scam.

Since the (r)epuglicon party has become a monolith under the thumb of trump (and his handlers), any support for someone in that party steals from the American people.

3. Trump doesn't spend his own money on anything.
