DJT and his entourage will get out of this presidency with more money than any other president has made during their presidency. The rest is just a show to misdirect attention, just like

What is it that there are so many antivaxxers in the US? Ok, we have parents, too, who think a measles party (literally what it's called) is better than a shot, but these are a minority, definitely not in politics, and in general are more silent about it.

The US has along history people with strange ideas getting into political power.
Anti-establishment tendencies and free speech together can have some weird results (9from a rational point of view).

I know a variety of American politicians for whom it is not only a rational point of view. People like RFK are measurably nuts.

Now as we know on this side of the pond nepotism and "filling one's pockets" while being POTUS are the foremost goals.
So noone is surprised when that's the case with DJT:

Might not work if someone wants to come in and hang him though.
Of course that has its own win-win aspect too.

Hasn't that already been done with someone else to cover up a scandal? I forgot the details. An Austrian comedian recently said, "That's the beauty about Trump. You never know what's the scandal and what's the cover-up." I have also read on FB: "I agree with Trump. Every American elementary school should get its ballroom."

This is exactly what was on yesterday's Tom the Dancing Bug comic. Ballrooms solve everything!
