The amount of Trump's corruption just now being exposed shows our law enforcement can't keep up

with the ocean of white collar crime in the US. It's taking millions of dollars and tens of thousands of man hours just to find a fraction of what Trump alone has done. Thoughts on some non-profit citizen organizations set up to investigate tips etc. into white collar crime? Think how much money it would save taxpayers.

On another note, this should be a big campaign issue for Democrats. It's not illegal immigrants that are costing taxpayers money and jobs, but all the white collar crime and Trump is one of the biggest offenders. Republicans are framing the issue and Dems are on the defensive. We need to be on the attack that it's not brown people but the fucking orange piece of shit in the White House and those like him that are fucking up the country with all their white collar crime.

Edit for this stat: White-Collar Crime Costs Between $300 To $600 Billion A Year
