Few things better expose the fanaticism of the Trump Derangement Syndrome crowd than a porn king offering $10 million for the goods on President Donald Trump.
Larry Flynt, the 74-year-old creator of Hustler Magazine, appears to be offering a $10 million reward “for information leading to the impeachment and removal from office of Donald J. Trump.”
…with a staggering $500 million net worth, the offer is little more than pocket change for him.
The hefty reward was announced in a statement from Flynt that was tweeted by Fox Business News reporter Liz Claman:

The statement denounced the Electoral College, suggesting Republicans stole the 2016 election while declaring Trump’s presidency to be “illegitimate.”
…an interesting word coming from a porn magnate.
Looking past high crimes and misdemeanors needed to impeach, Flynt points to the firing of former FBI director James Comey and Trump’s response to the violence seen earlier this year in Charlottesville, Va., as reasons to remove the president.
Setting a low bar that would have Barack Obama sweating bullets, other reasons that Flynt detailed were “telling hundreds of bald-faced lies” and a “complete ignorance of world affairs.”

Flynt upped the ante considerable from a meager $1 million reward he offered back in October 2016 in a desperate ploy to derail the Trump train speeding toward victory.
That failed effort was after “scandalous” evidence of “verifiable video footage or audio recordings for use prior to the November 8 election clearly showing Donald Trump engaging in illegal activity or acting in a sexually demeaning or derogatory manner,” according to the New York Post.
The reaction on social media suggests not many are taking the smut peddler serious in what is seen as little more than a “publicity stunt.”
Here’s a sampling of responses from Twitter:
Lol, a billion in taxpayer dollars with Mueller and 5 billion in anti Trump "investigative" reporting couldn't do it, now he's done. ???? https://t.co/7wOuTwEiIJ
