The Truman Show: The Fraudulent Origins Of The Former Presidents Act, Paul F. Campos
Publications
When President Donald Trump was impeached for a second time, many commenters pointed out that, if Trump were to be convicted by the Senate, he would likely lose millions of dollars in future taxpayer-funded benefits.
