Politics: How Much Money did Trump and His Administration Waste?

I have no idea just how much to put into this blog post. I can tell you that Trump has wasted a whole lot of money throughout his time as president and even now. He is one of the biggest grifters in world history. People are still giving this already rich person even more money which can be spent however he wants.

 

Trump is the biggest loser of a presidency in US history. You’d think the fact that Biden got more people voting for him than any other president in the history of this country would be the main reason why. Maybe the fact that he won only one of the dozens of election lawsuits would be another fact too.

 

Here is the proof that Trump is the biggest loser of a presidency in US history: from The Week issue dated 2-19-2021 page 16 quoting The Washington Post: “[The Insurrectionist’s] insistence that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him has cost taxpayers at least $519 million. That tally includes the costs of sending National Guard troops to Washington, D.C., defending against lawsuits, security for poll workers who faced death threats, and repairing damage to the Capitol after the January 6 insurrection.”

 

But that’s not all the money that he has wasted. While I don’t have the final totals, I remember reading that Trump was on track to spend more on vacations in just his first year in office than Obama did in 8. He continues to make money on the false belief that the election was stolen despite no poll showing him beating either generic Democrat or Biden in the poll (save 1 in 4 years’ time) or ever having a majority of the country approve of him while not even trying to win the state of Arizonia then constantly bitching that he didn’t win that state.

 

He is likely wasting that money on his many lawyers that he constantly shuffles through or his many rallies that caused at least 70 covid deaths. He spent a lot on the convention that violated many laws. There are many things that his administration wasted money on as well. But I think that I talked about this enough for this post.
