This Is What 500 Days of Trump's Corruption Looks Like

Published | Video Starts at 06:28

You all know what is happening. The President is pardoning people based on their ability to pay either him and his political operation or pay people who are close to the president. On May 27, Donald Trump pardons a man called Paul Walzack. He stole millions of dollars from the nurses and health care aides at the nursing home he owned. And he used the cash that he stole from his employees to buy a two million dollar yacht. He got convicted. He went to jail for fraud. (06:28–06:43)
