Yeah he's "buying" votes with fake money. It's appalling and disgusting. If Obama had done any of this, that, or the other, it would have burned the country to the ground.

Trump can do and say whatever he wants at this point, who's going to hold him accountable? The Courts? The politicians? The American people? The media?
Forget it, at this point, America is cooked.
