Marty_d Posted January 21 Posted January 21 De Santis has dropped out, the orange clown is pretty much guaranteed to take the Republican nomination 2
onetrack Posted January 21 Posted January 21 There's little hope for America while they retain that idiotic voting system that the true political power holders have gerrymandered. And then the best their system can offer the voters, is two bumbling geriatrics for Presidential offerings, with one a consummate liar and reality manipulator, and the other one not showing great leadership ability, either. 2
Marty_d Posted January 21 Posted January 21 The sad thing is that De Santis was no better an option than the other lying sack of shit. With his actions on abortion and sex ed he's arguably further to the crackpot right than Dump. 3 1
old man emu Posted January 22 Posted January 22 I see that Nikki Haley, who is running for the same party as Trump, has pointed out that Orange Man might be showing signs of cognitive degeneration (he's getting senile). As she campaigned in Keene, in the US state of New Hampshire on Saturday, Ms Haley referenced Mr Trump's speech the night before, in which he mistakenly asserted that Ms Haley was in charge of US Capitol security on January 6, 2021. That person was the US House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi, from the other mob. 1

rgmwa Posted January 22 Posted January 22 James Dimon (/ˈdaɪmən/; born March 13, 1956) is an American billionaire business executive and banker, who has been the chairman and chief executive officer of JPMorgan Chase since 2005. He has also been on the board of directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.[1][2] Dimon was included in Time magazine's 2006, 2008, 2009, and 2011 lists of the world's 100 most influential people.[3] Forbes estimated his net worth at $1.6 billion as of June 2023.[4] He serves on the board of directors of institutions such as the Business Roundtable, the Bank Policy Institute, and the Harvard Business School.[5][6] During his time heading JPMorgan Chase, the bank was fined $38 billion by the U.S. government for legal and regulatory infractions, including a then-record $13 billion fine in 2013 for defrauding investors.[7][8] No surprise he'd be fine with Trump back in the White House. 2
onetrack Posted January 26 Posted January 26 More troubles for Donald Trump: Donald Trump's own niece, Mary Trump, is going after him, following reports that the former president set up a "legal fund" that didn't actually pay legal bills. Raw Story reported on Tuesday that a legal defense fund set up to assist Trump through his numerous criminal indictments hasn't actually spent any money on legal fees, and that the largest thing it actually spent money on, was a huge party at Trump's Mar-a-Lago country club. Mary Trump, a psychologist who recently said Republicans are in for a "reckoning" with the next major election, has reported; "The stated purpose of the fund, started by long-time Trump advisor Michael Glassner, is to help Donald with his enormous legal fees. However, it has spent ZERO dollars on legal fees. Instead, the fund’s largest expense was $18,136 for a party at Mar-a-Lago - while the rest of the money is NOT being used for its intended purpose," she wrote. "Why would a fund created to supposedly cover legal fees, instead put money directly into Donald’s pocket? What does Donald know about it?" Mary Trump on her Substack site presented the information to an attorney, Joe Gallina, and Gallina said he saw "red flags" in Trump's IRS filings. “Non-profits like the Patriot Legal Defense Fund have a fiduciary duty to their donors to use their resources for their stated purpose," Gallina said. "This is a fundamental principle of non-profit law. If a non-profit misuses funds, it is FRAUD.” Mary Trump noted that, "The last time a Donald-related fund faced scrutiny, people went to prison. "WE BUILD THE WALL co-founder Brian Kolfage was sentenced to four years in prison for pocketing money raised to build a wall on the US-Mexico border, after falsely promising donors all funds would go to the project," CNBC reported Wednesday. "Two other co-defendants, Andrew Badolato and Timothy Shea, were sentenced to three and five years in prison respectively. Steve Bannon was also charged in the scheme but received a last-minute pardon from Donald at the end of his term. He’ll face NY State-related charges in 2024 - and Donald can’t pardon him on State charges." https://www.cnbc.com/2023/04/26/we-build-the-wall-founder-sentenced-to-4-years-in-prison.html#:~:text=The co-founder of a,thousands of dollars from donors. 2 2
nomadpete Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Question... Do chooks really come home to roost (for the entitled wealthy)? 1 1
facthunter Posted January 26 Posted January 26 "Fowl Play" should not go unpunished. Neice Mary Trump has been exposing the DON for a long time now. She published an easy to read book about the Family years ago. It's a Pity some of his "BLIND" followers don't read it. Steve Bannon has been ordered by a Judge to pay about 300 million dollars owed to Lawyers. His response?? I'M NOT going to gaol. .Nev 1
red750 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Get a load of Barron Trump. He is 6ft 8in, towering over his 6ft 3 father and 5 ft 11 mother Melania.
rgmwa Posted January 27 Posted January 27 He’s just been hit with an $83.3m fine so he may be buying fewer Big Macs for a while. 1
old man emu Posted January 27 Posted January 27 If the Trump family paid their fines, they'd have to go begging from church mice. The American "justice" system is delusional in the way it sets monetary penalties. 1

facthunter Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Most of his supporters say" GOD told me to vote for him". I dunno what religion Trump is. but even dog would have to make an appointment to see him.. . Any mistake Trump makes is someone else's doing. IF you don't do what he orders you are Trumped and dumped. Look at Cohen. Nev
onetrack Posted January 27 Posted January 27 The thing with Donald Trump is, he'll never personally pay any penalty to Jean Carroll. He'll just set up a "fraudulent trial" fund, and get all his imbecilic followers to contribute to it, and he'll soon have enough to pay all his legal fees, plus any court-imposed penalty. He's a master at working the crowd, and sucking the dollars off the idiots by the million. 1 1
Litespeed Posted January 27 Posted January 27 I reckon the Dumf will end up paying. The ruling is in New York where he is been slammed for fraud. I expect his local assets will be frozen to pay his fraud fines and pay the new libel penalties. He has no real comeback in New York and will eventually get his due but it will take time. All these fighting funds are just shams that will also come back to bite. 1 1
pmccarthy Posted January 27 Posted January 27 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horatio_Bottomley I think he is a reincarnation of Horatio Bottomley, who was tipped to be Prime Minister of England. Each time he was prosecuted he claimed it was a conspiracy. 1
red750 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 I saw a report today that there are rumours that Biden may withdraw from the presidential race before mid year, and Michelle Obama will throw her hat in the ring. 1
rgmwa Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Michelle Obama has said she’s not interested in the job. She wouldn’t be a bad choice though. 1
red750 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 In the video of a speech she made, she didn't disclose the plan, but was very concerned about who might win in November, and if Joe is a bit cncerned whether he can handle it, she might be convinced to try and knock off the Don. https://nypost.com/2024/01/17/opinion/dont-be-shocked-if-michelle-obama-sneaks-her-way-into-2024-race/
