Could Donny be smuggling drugs?

[struggle4progress]

Alice Marie Johnson ... appointed "pardon czar" by President Trump ... was convicted of multiple offenses, including money laundering, conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute cocaine, attempted possession of cocaine with intent to distribute and deliver structuring a monetary transaction, and conspiracy to commit money laundering ....

He put a one-time pusher and addict in charge of Americans' health. He set DOGE's ketamine freaks loose on hard-working public servants.

A habit of making pardons for drug lords.

1. Every accusation is a confession.

I also get an impression of money laundering (his specialty) and blackmail.

Among other innumerable crimes.

2. The assumption is they dont care about drugs

But they do care about putting a Trump puppet government in several countites in South America.

3. yep

at least one druggie kid flying around the world making deals. how closely do they inspect jr's plane?

4. One thing I know about Trump, it's all about conning people out of a buck.

He's been a crook his entire life. Smuggling drugs is not beneath his character.

6. When he was running the sex ring with Epstein, there were drugs involved most certainly.

The rich are used to sex and drug parties.
You cannot have one without the other.

8. He likes acting like a NY Mafia Godfather. He could be demanding cartels for a payoff,

or he'll blow up their boats. Nothing is beneath this criminal.

9. Yes this is half of what is going on. Trump wants a piece of the drug cartel.

And will keep blowing up their drug mules until he gets it.

And he wants the Venezuelan oil as well.

[Irish_Dem]

5. Maybe Trump is pardoning them so they can run his drug operation.

He looks at the profits and wants some of the action.

7. Wouldn't doubt it

Just as the Reagan Administration was involved with drug running. Only difference I could see would be this Administration would demand a cut and wouldn't care if they had plausible deniability or not.
