Resignation Deal 

Trump’s settlement of his billion-dollar suit for compensation from the I.R.S. for its release of supposedly confidential information on Trump tax returns shows how, in his view, government is all a game. He and his acting Attorney General have concocted a trade-off that withdraws his threat of an unlikely award of $10 billion to him in exchange for creation of a slush fund of “only” 20% of that amount to fund thank-you gifts for the insurrectionists who stormed the Capitol at his request on January 6th, 2021.

It should lead us to realize that Trump’s ultimate objective in getting elected president has been to enrich himself with as much of the country’s treasure as possible. The next step in that caper will likely be an offer that he will resign the Presidency if the Congress transfers a sufficient quantity of taxpayer funds ($ X billions) to his offshore account. Even a Democratic Congress might be willing to entertain such a deal just to get rid of him.
