Edit to to add: it appears someone erased a post so this won’t make much sense where it is. I’ll leave it up anyways though.
20 million for Taylor swift to shoot a photo op with Kamala was likely a bigger waste. The security detail alone would have had to be enormous. One thing to think about is that with Trump that money would have went to a wide swath of people other than Trump to make that happen. In Swifts case it is likely quite safe to say that the vast majority of the money went straight to Swift.
From what the Big Balls team is finding it looks like a lot of spending of tax dollars had gone unchecked for a long time and a lot of it was a transfer of wealth from the taxpayers into the hands of those in government positions. That likely falls somewhere on the constitutional crisis spectrum also.
