Ultra-rich psychopaths only do philanthropy for two reasons:

1/ Tax evasion
2/ Currying favors from left-leaning governments and improving their image

The Trump regime eliminated the need for 2/. The Billionnaires now feel free and empowered to be themselves openly and without shame.

skip past pay your taxes

Needs to be - to what ransome are you willing to pay.
