The Trump Infrastructure Program

The following is not a comment on a real program. It is simply me taking a lot of President Trump’s actions and motivations to creating a fantasy – one that isn’t all that farfetched.

I came up with a list of 47 people associated with Trump who are certainly candidates for federal prison.
