Shouldn't that be considered a proceed of crime?

But since he's not directly profiting they probably won't investigate

That's great news for E Jean Caroll.

How much of that came from Saudi Arabia?

And we are supposed to just believe that number. Like 105,000 people that he gathered for his rally in New Jersey at a venue that couldn’t hold more than 20,000

Everything is a lie with these republicans

If they say 52 million, it's probably closer to 2.5 million

Sure they did.

Their whole existence and raison d'etre is a lie.

Let's see the "pledges" become real, and the subsequent filings....

So much this.

Indeed!

That 100,000 crowd in NJ a few weeks back was FEWER THAN 15,000 (maybe smaller!)

It never ends,

Wonder how much of that goes towards his monthly payments for lawsuits he's lost.

Said it in another thread but I’ll say it here too:

[1] Without external confirmation, I don’t buy it. [2] I’ll never understand why it isn’t a major talking point to tell these mark-ass tricks that the man is playing them for the trick-ass marks they are and fleecing them for all they have, but I guess if even Jesus is too weak they’ll just have to tithe to a different, properly sadistic megachurch.

Even if that is true.. it seems small. Dude just had to sell a jet.

I watched a sbs video on his "response"

It's very obvious from the video that he knows he's fucked and saying shit in hopes it'll save him which it wont

I’m getting texts about every 12 seconds saying TRUMP IS GUILTY SO YOU SHOULD GIVE MONEY TO THIS PROGRESSIVE CANDIDATE. I can only imagine the campaigning that is happening for people that actually like him.

As expected.

Putin is investing in a weaker US. If Trump is not able to deliver that, Putin ain't investing av anymore...

Trump's only chance is if a majority of the members of SCOTUS really are as corrupt as we all fear...
