The World's Oldest Grifter would rather grift than offer condolences

 That, of course, is Donald Trump.

Five days after he was shot in the ear by a 20 year old registered Republican, Trump is now hawking a new set of sneakers with a photo of himself, bloodied and defiant, raising a fist in the air, attached to the shoes. 

Asking price? $300.

A 50 year old Republican family man, Corey Comperatore, died protecting his family at the rally in Butler, PA on Saturday, but while his widow declined to speak with President Biden, Comperatore is probably seething in his grave if he knew that Trump, as of press time, hadn't taken the time to call long distance from Milwaukee to the Comperatores' home in Pennsylvania.

No, the only thing on Trump's mind, other than the convention, which wraps tonight, is how much more he can grift off his supporters.

Farron Cousins explains.


While Trump's detractors are clutching their pearls over the selection of Ohio junior senator JD Vance as Trump's running mate this year, the former president proves yet again that a man's sacrifice, a civilian's in this case, mind you, means nothing to him. He'd rather profit off the incident than offer condolences to a man he probably never really got to know.

As a Christian, I notice that other Christians are doing crazy things to support him like using Bible verses that have nothing to do with Trump, and they think that he is the best president ever (with Reagan the second best, lol).

It's like they know there are verses that would condemn men like Trump, and will avoid those passages.
