I’ve been watching events unfold in Trump’s America – rampant corruption, cruelty, disregard for the rule of law, etc. However, I live in Cambodia, reputed for years to be one of the most corrupt nations on the planet. In recent weeks, the ‘pig-butchering’ scandal has emerged. (look it up for details, or read my previous blog), with hundreds of thousands of ruined lives, kidnapped slaves, trafficking, torture, electrocution, extortion, fraud, billions and billions of illegal dollars scammed and laundered, etc. This is one of the most gruesome violations of human rights this century.
So when I look at Trump’s corruption, my first thought is that surely Cambodia is much worse. Pig-butchering on such a massive scale could never happen in America.
Or could it?
How might a huge scam like pig-butchering ever happen in the USA? Here are some tips from Cambodia that could help Trump pull it off.
- Naturally, the highest public officials must be bribed (or threatened) to turn a blind eye to torture and extortion. Just a few bribes to Trump and his rich friends, and you’re home free.
- Disable the financial regulation and justice systems so that criminals will not be investigated or caught. Or if somehow caught, then pardoned. Looks like this has happened in the USA already. The politician who accepted a $50,000 bribe on camera has had charges dropped by the Department of Justice.
- Build your cyberslave centers in remote areas, or else disguise them or attach them to casinos, so that ordinary Americans don’t see anything. I was quite surprised that educated Cambodians had not even heard of the massive pig-butchering scandal, amounting to an estimated 50-60% of the entire country’s GDP.
- Kidnap only foreigners into slavery. No Americans would disappear that way. Who cares about a bunch of unknown foreigners? But don’t make the mistake of actually torturing a slave to death. That happened to a Korean in Cambodia, and the international community, especially Korea, has jumped all over the Cambodian government and exposed the corruption.
- Intimidate the media into turning a blind eye. Let it be known that any investigation or reporting will be met with a Trump lawsuit for billions of dollars.
Now that Trump controls the media, the Supreme Court, the Department of Justice, and the financial system, he could actually get away with a huge pig butchering scam. Just wave some money in front of his eyes. The ringleader of just one of the many operations — the Prince Group scam — has had 15 billion dollars in illegal profits confiscated. That guy once bragged that his pig butchering brought in 30 million dollars per day. Could Trump resist that?
Finally, just for comparison, the US was the center of the Epstein operations, the biggest child-rape, sex-trafficking scandal in history, and Trump and his cronies have — so far – managed to cover it up. If Trump can cover up such a massive scandal, surely he could cover up any pig-butchering operation in the USA.
