Can't immediately find the link, but one of Trump's long time nemesis authors said that they raised $107 million but only spent something like $26 million on the inauguration. He was saying it was not physically possible to spend $107 million on an inauguration. The thesis is that a lot of moola went bye-bye and who knows where it went.

Some wag said that war was God's way of teaching Americans geography. I think the Trump Administration is God's way of teaching Americans finance law, specifically related to money laundering.

The folks don't care. And by golly, if the folks don't care it don't matter.

It depends on what they find, where all the money came from and where it went.

The folks care about 3-4 things. Unspent inauguration funds ain’t one of them. Not even close.

Prosecutors in the US Dept of Justice seem to care, the same office that Guiliani and Christie were part of!

I am sure that everyone would care when they found out that >$75 million from Russian oligarchs and Saudi royal family was laundered and funneled through the inauguration committee to the Trump crime family

ZSN just beat me to it.
I was about to post - Perhaps you should ask Trump's 4th Attorney General if it's payback time.
You're right dolo, it is a joke. A bad one. Just as this entire Trump presidency has been.

How many felonies does the Trump syndicate have to commit to shake the faithful?

The American people have a right to know if their president is a crook.
