Pablo Escobar's Brother Trying To Raise $50 Mil To Impeach Trump

Back in the '80s, he was the King of Cocaine. Netflix made a series about his life, Narcos. Roberto served as Pablo's bookkeeper, living a lavish life built upon misery and horrific violence, even if he was more personally removed from that devastation.

But he's been free and clear since 2003, and he says that his old life of crime is behind him. In a 2014 interview in VICE, he said "That's all behind me now, though; I do good now."

Apparently, he gave up crunching numbers for kingpins in favor of caring for horses, searching for a cure for HIV, and cryptocurrency. The interviewer called him "a pretty weird dude."

He set up a GoFundMe asking for a mere $50 million which, when you think about it, is peanuts compared to the kind of cash the Medellin cartel pulled in in its heyday. The reason? He wants to impeach President Trump.

The folks at GoFundMe had some serious questions about the campaign before they were willing to let it go forward — things like what would actually happen to the money people donate.

If those questions are answered satisfactorily, the page could go up again.

According to an interview Roberto did with Global News in Canada, he has a few reasons. "His discrimination of the Latino American people. We are some of the hardest-working people in the world. Trump is 100-per-cent corrupt and colluding with foreign governments. Trump is like a Chihuahua dog — small and cute but doesn’t know how to bite. I am good at biting."

"Pablo Escobar is a South American, also known as ‘Latino,’ legendary hero, who helped millions of people in his home country of Colombia and surrounding countries.

"With the strong leadership of his company Escobar Inc., founded by his brother Roberto Escobar, we will push hard to get Donald Trump impeached.

So far, everything Pablo and his family have done has become multi-billion-dollar successful ventures."

"I am going to eliminate Trump from power. I will do it. My brother Pablo killed hundreds of judges and thousands of policemen. But this time we will do it the legal way, peacefully," he said.

Nevertheless, he maintains that that's what it will cost.

"Once we raise the $50 million, we believe we have an incredibly high chance of getting Trump removed swiftly from being the president," he said. "He has done a lot of wrong and should be held accountable. But of course, it costs money to go against a powerful guy like Trump."

"I know there is enough dirt on this guy. If we pay the right connections, they will come forward and testify in Congress and co-operate with Robert Mueller," he said.

"He is the worst cockroach in history. Cockroaches don’t die easily but when they do, they do it on their backs with their feet up and intimate parts exposed. Remember that I said that."
