More background from Wikipedia

ACN, Inc. is a North American multi-level marketing (MLM) company. It provides telecommunications, energy, merchant services and other services, depending on the country, through a network of independent sellers who also can recruit other sellers. Based in Concord, North Carolina, United States, ACN began operations in the United States in 1993. As of 2019, the company reported that it operates in twenty-seven countries.

Donald Trump and three of his children had some involvement with ACN during his term as president of the United States. In 2018, a class action lawsuit was filed against them alleging fraud, false advertising, unfair competition, and a now-dismissed allegation of racketeering. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACN_Inc.#Doe_et_al._v._Trump_Corp._et_al.

Doe et al. v. Trump Corporation et al. is an ongoing case commenced in the U.S. District Court for Southern District of New York in October 2018, in which four anonymous plaintiffs filed a lawsuit against the Trump Corporation, Donald Trump and three of his adult children — Donald Jr., Eric, and Ivanka — alleging racketeering and of fraudulently encouraging unsophisticated investors to give large amounts of money to organizations connected to the Trumps. It is alleged that the defendants promoted ACN in exchange for millions of dollars in secret payments from 2005 to 2015. The lawsuit says that Trump "told investors that he had 'experienced the opportunity' and 'done a lot of research,' and that his endorsement was 'not for any money.'" However, it subsequently emerged that Trump was a paid spokesman for at least one of the companies whose products and services he was promoting to investors.

The Trumps have repeatedly sought to compel the case going to arbitration, which is held behind closed doors, based on contracts between ACN and each of the plaintiffs, which includes a clause mandating the resolution of all disputes via binding arbitration. However, the Trumps are not parties to the ACN contracts, nor is ACN a party to the lawsuit. The companies named in the lawsuit, but which are not parties, are: ACN, a seller of videophones; the Trump Network, a vitamin marketing company; and the Trump Institute, which ran real estate marketing seminars. Multiple judges in multiple courts have rejected the Trumps' motion for arbitration, saying it was unfair for the Trumps to demand arbitration. The plaintiffs' lawyer has repeatedly argued that the case was not based on the ACN contract, but on the Trumps' fraud. The Trumps' attempt to compel arbitration was again rejected on 28 July 2021, in a decision which also rejected ACN's effort to use the arbitration clause to refuse to turn over documents to the plaintiffs.

"Sent by God to save the Country." "Godlike." "Make America great again. Reelect President Trump in 2024." The cult chants their praise and adulation day in and day out for one of the most corrupt pieces of manure in present day times. We question those who followed Manson, Jim Jones, Hitler, etc. The human race is far from a perfect being when, so easily, they can be manipulated and victimized by such evident corruption.

"It is much easier to win an argument with an intelligent person than a stupid one."

The people who adore him are exactly like him. Before his name was all over the news he was a regular citizen just like them.

I'm sure there are future trumps in his crowd of followers. Isn't that good news?

Don't annoy old people. The older we get the less "life in prison" is a deterrent.
