With things like the sale of Trump mem coin special dinners with the President for highest volume purchasers, deals done with White House trips to foreign nations for Trump real estate and partnerships with his personal business, do you think Trump is using the Presidency to personally profit his private business ventures?

I voted yes.
 
Every time Trumps wants to raid another piggy bank, the GOP buy him a new hammer. What is truly sickening is not just that Trump gets away with this stuff, but that the gormless maga cult actually celebrate his immorality.
 
YES.
 
No more than Biden enriched his family over the time of office holding.
 
Considering what gets resolved by those who serve in government positions, I would say personal profit is the primary objective.

Of course he is. I teach HS math for personal profit.

A better question is whether Trump is enriching himself more than is normal for Presidents.

Bill Clinton rented the White House guest rooms to donors.

Show me a President who sold BILLIONS in mem coin, fees for which will but hundreds of millions in Trump’s pockets or closed real estate deals while in the White House for even more money directly in Trump’s pocket. BOTH with foreign leaders and others who make no bones about their found it to purchase favor with POTUS.

ALL in DIRECT VIOLATION of the Emoluments Clause

Again, you folks have a problem DISCERNING EQUIVALENTS.

It’s always< “What about this.”, where the “this” is no where near as deceitful and/or deeply corrupt.

Bad is bad, but worse is worse. Your guy can’t go about doing 8’s and you justify it by pointing to twos.

You don’t fix the swamp by making it swampier.
 
Yes.
Trump himself said he got elected because of the "Brand".
 
Modern, I don't know how you are asking that, but watch this.

He is emulating the Southern Man trope.
 
His crypto meeting should have sealed any doubt. He's laughing, milking it, knows he won't live forever, but enjoying it while it lasts.

The conman sure is getting a kick out of fleecing everyone.
