Ten million dollars is all I need to show you how Infowhores works.
Bernie Sanders' wife, repeat WIFE, took out a loan of $10 million from a bank in order to expand the college she was running and educate the local population. Unfortunately the plan failed. But Infowhores ripped into her, claiming that this was an example of socialism and hinting that it was all Bernie Sanders' fault.
Now contrast that with what sleazy Donald Trump did.
In 1987 Donald Trump bought into a casino. That casino had been established as a front for a money laundering scheme for the CIA and the mob to provide funds for their anti-Communist activities in Latin America. Trump bought the stake of a CIA agent, and believed that his name would bring success to the scheme (but did Trump know who he was climbing into bed with in this casino operation?) But the casino and its sleazy strip club went tits up within a few years, owing over a billion dollars, and Trump faced personal bankruptcy owing hundreds of millions of dollars. But somehow Trump avoided personal bankruptcy, and the casino was somehow allowed to continue to run. However, last year that casino, called Trump Taj Mahal, was fined $10 million for...MONEY LAUNDERING!!
So:
1. Bernie Sanders' wife takes out a loan of $10 million to expand a college to help educate her local population, but the plan fails, and Infowhores cite this as an example of socialism and hint that it was actually The Bern's fault;
2. Trump's casino and sleazy strip club, which was a CIA/mob money laundering scheme, fails massively, but he is bailed out by Wall Street (avoiding personal bankruptcy owing hundreds of millions of dollars), and several decades later that casino is fined $10 million for...get this...money laundering(!!), but Inofwhores say fuck all about it?!
