Related: About this forumTrump Could Get Hit With Wire Fraud Charges Over Bogus Fundraising Scheme - Ring of Fire
According to new reports, Donald Trump's fundraising schemes following the 2020 election look a lot like wire fraud, since the entity that they were raising money for didn't actually exist. Trump began sending out fundraising emails calling for donations to take the fight over the election to court, promising that the money would go to the "Election Defense Task Force," which didn't actually exist. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains how this scam worked.

And that goes way back. But I dont know the specifics, just seems what they always end up getting slippery operators and mobsters with. There are a great many other charges he should face.
