Donald Trump wants the American people to thank him for suing the Internal Revenue Service and accepting a mere $1.8 billon in damages because he had initially asked for $10 billion.
Trump made his remarks via the failing social media site he is a part-owner of, Truth Social, writing, “I gave up a lot of money in allowing the just announced Anti-Weaponization Fund to go forward. I could have settled my case, including the illegal release of my Tax Returns and the equally illegal BREAK IN of Mar-a-Lago, for an absolute fortune. Instead, I am helping others, who were so badly abused by an evil, corrupt, and weaponized Biden Administration, receive, at long last, JUSTICE! President DJT”
Really?! So now he’s a great humanitarian because he wants to take billions of dollars and throw them at domestic terrorists who attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021?
As you might expect, a lot of people cried “foul!” on the demented American head of state’s posting.

This is like the president of a bank robbing his own bank.

His dumbass lawsuit never had a chance and everyone knew it. The whole thing was a scam, just like everything Trump does. It’s all a grift to transfer American taxpayers money to himself.

Trump is a conman.
MAGA was his mark.
Americans are paying the price.

A spectacular forensic forgery.

You cannot “settle” a lawfully executed federal search warrant for cash. Synthesizing a phantom sacrifice to manufacture martyrdom is pure imaginary accounting.

He is stealing only 2B of our money when he could have had 10B. We are getting a discount. I suppose 👀🤪

If there’s any justice in the world, one day Donald Trump will be flat broke, eating out of dumpsters. I’d pay a billion bucks to see that!
