SCANDAL #1: Trump hired his daughter and son-in-law to work in the White House, and gave them serious policy responsibility for which they were unqualified

translated: (in skyscream voice) trump didn't hire inside the beltway like biden did. RREEEEEEE

The whole point of the Trump administration, the reason why his supporters voted for him was to do exactly what you are criticizing him of - break the precedent of political establishment. Get outside of the beltway. Get people who were not financially obligated and beholden to anyone. You apparently missed that whole dynamic.

You're off to a rousing start with your "list." I think we can cross #1 off

Be honest: you would have blown a gasket had, say, Hillary Clinton hired Chelsea to oversee COVID. Also, you can hire outside the beltway without hiring your unqualified kids, right?

You're also going to get tired of doing this.

SCANDAL #2: Trump pardoned Charles Kushner https://www.foxnews.com/politics/who-is-charles-kushner-trump-pardon, Jared Kushner's father. Charles Kushner was convicted of making false statements to the FEC regarding his campaign contributions to Democratic candidates in New Jersey, tax evasion, and witness tampering. The witness tampering part of it was fun: he hired a private detective to hire prostitute to sleep with the witness, and to videotape the proceedings. He then tried to blackmail the witness with the tape. https://www.justice.gov/archive/tax/usaopress/2004/txdv04kush0818_r.htm

SCANDAL #3: Trump has played golf 298 times since taking office, or just under 1/4 of his entire presidency (10 months of only golf, every day). Estimates vary on how much this cost taxpayers between tens of millions and close to 150 Million dollars. https://trumpgolfcount.com/. Most of these trips are to his own properties, where the Secret Services pays his businesses full freight for things like renting rooms and golf carts.

This is made all the worse because he repeatedly promised he would not play golf. Youtube link to Trump promising not to play golf because he would be working too hard
