The real question is, will you : (a)get your pardon, (b) run out the statute of limitations, or (c) buy off a politician with part of the proceeds?

(d) become a political target

It's being perpetrated right in front of us by this administration. They have been embezzling billions in so many schemes:

- Crypto scams by DJT

- Trump Phone

- The whole Tariff Refund Scheme by Lutnick's firm Cantor Fitzgerald

- The billions stolen from Venezuela just recently

- the J-6 "Slush Fund"

- The guy who got the Reflection Pool contract is mysteriously a Mar a Lago regular

And probably many many more we don't even know about.

Gives new meaning to "as above, so below."

Not so new: the legend of the Fisher king (the source of Parsifal), the implicit theology of the Deuteronomistic history, the substitute king ritual in Assyria all speak to a conception of a connection between a rulers moral and physical health and the realm.

Sweet! Anyone wanna buy a boat?
