Washington Mafia 2.0: Don Trump has Returned

All heads of mob organizations demand absolute loyalty. If this sounds familiar, it’s because you have read at least one story about how Trump demands fealty from all of his “people” although he never offers loyalty in return. Trump’s cabinet and other close advisers share two things in common: none of them are qualified for their positions, and all of them are loyal to Trump for a variety reasons, including criminal activity. He is protecting them from prosecution. In return, each of them continues to kiss his humongous derriere on a regular basis.

It is fair to compare Trump’s entire life to those of infamous mobsters Al Capone, and John Gotti. From his early days Trump committed crimes big and small. These were desperate efforts to maintain the lifestyle of a real billionaire. He has now become the unquestionable leader of the Washington Mafia 2.0 in 2025.

Long before Putin decided to make Trump your president, he was committing tax fraud by inflating the value of his properties when seeking a loan from institutions like Deutsche Bank, and deflating their value during tax season. Al Capone was finally placed in prison, not for his many violent crimes, but for tax evasion.

John Gotti left a trail of bloodshed as a major crime boss. Pandemic experts claim that Trump is responsible for the deaths of about 10 percent of the one million Americans who lost their lives related to complications from Covid-19.

Still doubt that he used his illegitimate presidency to increase his personal wealth? Here’s a fact. Trump Corp made a profit of 1.7 billion dollars between 2017 and 2021. Trump continued to be involved in personal, foreign business interests in violation of the Emoluments Clause.

Richard Nixon said: “your president is not a crook.” He lied and Trump lied every day as he violated the Constitution.
