Every single president in modern history has increased their net worth after leaving office except for one— Donald Trump.

Obama: $1.3m vs. $70m
George Bush: $20m vs. $40m
Clinton: $1.3m vs. $241.5m
George W. Bush: $4m vs. $23m
Carter: $2.3m vs. $10m
Nixon: $2m vs. $10m
Reagan: $10.6m vs. $15.4m
Trump: $3b vs. $2.3b

Trump is also the only one being criminally charged for supposedly overstating his net worth, yet other politicians use their office to increase theirs.

Will the DOJ investigate the others?

Did you know that there is already a plan set for DeSantis “influencers” to become RFK Jr boosters once DeSantis drops out?

DeSantis doesn’t care about winning in 2024, all he and his donors want to do is sabotage Trump.

Fortunately, DeSantis’ “influencers” have proven to be not influential whatsoever.

Trump 2024.

That is true of course, with the exception of President Harry Truman.

He received no gold-plated goodbye, no government pension or inflated living allowance when he left the white house as modern presidents do.

Nor was there multi-million dollar book deals waiting as a way to launder pay-off money for Presidential favorites previously granted.

Upon expiration of his term as president he and Mrs. Truman (Bess) drove themselves home in their own car and were so out-of-funds that they had to move in with her mother.

Although he was a democrat things were quite a bit different back in those days.

He was inarguably much more conservative (and patriotic) than a great number of our elected republicans in Washington today.
