More grift
It makes sense. Good possibility Trump is going to have to pay some heavy fines for Ny and federal tax evasion. Trump's brand is tarnished at least in the US. It's certainly possible that Trump will have to sell off his assets especially with loans coming due.
Politcal grifting is essentially legal and it's easy money. Worse case senario for Trump he can stick a few million into a Russian Bank and while Putin's still the boss can be granted politcal asylum.

Here the end of the GOP... Idolism... Golden Statue to Trump... Cult of personality...




It captures his inner self, "All that glitters is not Gold."

methinks i recall a story like that (there was probably a calf involved) in an otherwise rather strange book
I betting it was made with pyrite.

What Is Fool's Gold?

"Fool's gold" is a common nickname for pyrite. Pyrite received that nickname because it is worth virtually nothing, but has an appearance that "fools" people into believing that it is gold.

When rendered into sulfuric acid, which seems apropos.
nope - smash it with a good flint to get really small pieces. they will start to burn in midair. fred flintstone put that to good use.

... i bet fred preferred it to the real stuff - vilma on the other hand

That too, but also...

Pyrite contains sulfur and iron. During World War II it was mined to produce sulfuric acid, an industrial chemical. Today, it is used in car batteries, appliances, jewelry, and machinery.
