Text from article: The billionaire families gave an average total of $10 million each in 2024, an amount roughly equal to what 100,000 typical political donors gave, combined. And that does not count money that billionaires contributed through dark money groups that do not have to disclose their donors. Money at that scale can be game-changing in tight races. TV ads, targeted digital advertising, canvassing technology to aim door-knockers at the right voters — spending money wins elections. Many of those billionaires are not only hoping to reshape the federal government, as Elon Musk did in the early months of President Trump’s second term, but to win influence in state legislatures, City Councils, school boards and courthouses.

Trump making a strange hand gesture while his mouth is down turned.
I don't know about you guys, but I think the whole American exceptionalism thing might have been a bit over-hyped.

If Trump said.. anything.. I wouldn’t take his word for it.
I don’t think history has ever had a leader as globally mendacious and untrustworthy as Trump. Or at least, not one who has squandered so much wealth and power.
You can’t fool all of the people all of the time.
