Scammer Donald Trump is back with another scam
Like Donald Trump dinner with the people he scammed with his NFT collection, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd released the following statement:
“Donald Trump is nothing more than a con man who has ripped off the American people time and time again, and this election is no different: Trump sold contraband sneakers, sold his own Bible, and promoted NFTs. While Trump continues to support a ridiculously out-of-touch MAGAnomics agenda that puts his ultra-wealthy friends ahead of working families, Americans are not falling for scam work. Voters see through Trump’s endless fraud and will reject his extreme and unpopular brand at the polls in November.”
