Trump’s Unhidden Corruption: A Feature, Not a Bug
Donald Trump’s administration has increasingly shed any pretense of avoiding conflicts of interest, moving from public scrutiny to outright appropriation of public funds. Recent actions, such as the repurposing of taxpayer money for presidential projects and a questionable IRS settlement, highlight a disregard for established financial and legal norms. This pattern suggests a shift towards a more overt and unapologetic use of power, enabled by a growing public cynicism and a perceived lack of accountability mechanisms.
