- Trump is soliciting bribes and offering protection to businesses as long as they pay him. Just like the mafia.

- Donald trump is turning america into a mafia state the pattern is inescapable – with just one caveat: organised crime bosses occasionally display more honour .
- Trump’s regime is straight-up mafia: loyalty oaths, foreign prison deals, secret payments. How do you fight a mob state? rico charges, cut the money, expose the enablers, flip insiders, and never let it feel normal. It’s not politics. It’s organized crime.
- Call it what it is. Trump is openly taking bribes from everywhere on earth. Elect a criminal, expect a mafia state.
- The us is now a mafia state. Congratulations to trump voters, who, apparently, wanted this.

- Trump is a thinly disguised mafia boss. Only mafia bosses are usually smart and successful.
- Comparing trump to the mafia is an insult—to the mafia. At least they had a code.
