Let's not dismiss this as another diploma, steak, etc. This is more clever and more evil, judging from the way it can be purchased. Trump says he knows more than anybody else about epidemiology and diplomacy and China and everything else under the sun--and it's all lies--but one thing he really does know that well is weird money transactions. This has to be a washing operation. And being surrounded as he is by a Praetorian Guard of Republicans, who are themselves targeted by Trump voters, well...he'll get away with this one too.

There's one hope here. The man is 78 years old. It's inevitable that however rancid his remaining time is, it's short. After this, we'll see what always happens when the Don passes and his soldiers fight among themselves to be Capo di Tutti Capi: the Trump offspring will be at each other's throats; their subordinates will look for openings; the GOP will crack into factions. There's much too much money available to the Right, and they're already beating each other up for the right to trade on the Trump brand. Trump's going to take it all down with him.

Watch what happens.
