Former President Donald Trump’s youngest son, Barron Trump, was denied a new bank account because of a political “cancel mob,” his mother, Melania, claimed of “serious concerns about civil rights violations.”

“I was shocked and dismayed to learn that my long-time bank decided to terminate my account and deny my son the opportunity to open a new one,” Melania wrote in her new memoir, “Melania.”

“This decision appeared to be rooted in political discrimination, raising serious concerns about civil rights violations.”

I don’t think so if it wasn’t one of the protected classes.

‘Political’ is still fair game..............

At least they and their friend$ know where not to put their money before the bank decides to steal it.

The best thing you could do to such a bank would actually be at first opening accounts from as many like-minded people as possible.

Then wait about 30 days for the bank to loan out the cash.

Then everyone go back and close their accounts.

A bank doesn’t want business from the son of a billionaire?
