  1. It's very difficult to ascertain just how much money Trump has. Certainly he has property assets, such as buildings and golf courses. However, it's not known how many of these are encumbered with mortgages. They are also illiquid, selling them would take months or years, unless the process was sped up by a fire sale. Apparently Trump has told all his lawyers the maximum they will get paid is $750/hr. That's possibly a sign of being cash-strapped. It's also not conducive to getting the best legal representation, but that deficiency in quality was obvious already.
  2. IMO the poster you refer to even gets oxygen when we use his initials, or refer to him indirectly, even though we are not responding to his posts. Shunning, social control mechanism used most commonly in small tight-knit social groups to punish those who violate the most serious group rules. It is related to exile and banishment, although shunning is based on social rather than physical isolation or separation.
  3. I used to write scientific reports, and papers for peer-reviewed journals. The process involved assembling data obtained by experiment, and drawing conclusions from it in a logical sequence. Probably not journalism, but close. It's probably why I find the garbled non-sequitur posts of Trumpers so ridiculous.
  4. I find it interesting when I referred to a trolling sack of sh!t, KH automatically assumed I was posting about him. Oops.
  5. It would be done through an intermediary.
  6. Fact: E Jean Carroll was awarded $83.3 million in damages in her second defamation case. Fact: Judge Engoron ordered Trump to disgorge $355 million in fraudulently obtained profits. Fact: Maddow has multiple awards for journalism. AFAIK you have none. You can post your conspiracy theories here for eternity, you can't change said facts.
  7. Agree, it is of critical importance to know what the source of the problem is. That will require the services of someone further up the skill set than a general practitioner. Any pills your GP gives you are masking the pain, not necessarily fixing the cause. Bear in mind also that prolonged use of anti-inflammatories comes at a cost to the kidneys.
  8. Putin has all Russia's gold mining output to call on, how do you think he is paying the Iranians and North Koreans?
  9. Mar a Lago has been the subject of dozens of lawsuits, ranging from suing a nearby airport, to food safety violations. Like everything else Trump touches, it's a clusterf$$K
  10. The thread was closed at my request, due to another hijack by the resident d!ckhead.
  11. I think it would only be hijacked again by a trolling sack of sh!t. If no-one responds to his posts, he has no oxygen. Responding to him only leads to a series of baiting posts.
  12. I have never been in a courtroom. It was drummed into me by my father ( who was defrauded himself by an older brother ) the only people who got rich in them were lawyers. In keeping with that axiom, I have always had as little to do with the legal profession If Trump is so smart, and a stable genius, why does he need platoons of lawyers, and has more courtroom appearances than The Phantom of the Opera has had performances? If he was really smart, he would be avoiding both.
  13. That's as likely to happen as me winning Tattslotto. KH posts breed like maggots.
  14. First there were RINO's, Republicans In Name Only. Now there are the people who support him, but at least have the sense to not send him money. They are TINO's, Trumpers In Name Only.
  15. It's a fact. If Trump wants to appeal either the NY case or the E Jean Carroll case, he has to post cash or a bond equivalent to the amount of the judgment. If he doesn't appeal, he has to pay. If he does not pay, the plaintiffs can get court orders to seize his assets, and sell them to satisfy the awards.
  16. Trump and his father avoided gift taxes for years with sham transactions. IIRC, the NY Times called out the IRS for its failure to prosecute.
  17. It certainly is not, and it is only going to get worse for Trump. His only hope is to get re-elected. He will go to jail if he is not. The odds against him being acquitted in ALL criminal trials are insurmountable. A campaign for the Presidency takes money, lots of it. Trump has raided the RNC's campaign kitty and PAC's to pay his legal bills, $55 million and counting. He's got more appeals going than a butcher has pork chops, and all of the lawyers are billing him in advance for services. It would take a truly dumb or desperate lawyer to trust him to pay. They have Rudy Giuliani as an example. The large donors have all walked away, they can see the writing on the wall, and where their money is going. The remaining small donor rubes are not enough, and are probably exhausted by his constant dunning. I don't understand your mindset. I do understand it is only a matter of time.
  18. A good friend once told me " It doesn't matter how good you think you are, there is always someone out there who is going to be faster, stronger and more skillful than you". Trump has just experienced that, in a courtroom. He thought he was better than the law. When you're in a hole, it's best to stop digging.
  19. Prior to 2016, Trump was involved in over 4000 lawsuits, either as a plaintiff or defendant. A normal businessman would be unfortunate to have five.
  20. IMO no mob boss would want to back him. He's giving them a bad name. IIRC Trump said only mob bosses take the Fifth, then proceeded to invoke it 500 times in one of his depositions.
  21. I didn't hear any Trumper complaining when Trump stacked the Supreme Court with conservatives. What about them? AFAIK none were called a rapist by a judge, were prosecuted for massive fraud, or willfully exposed national secrets. None paid off a porn star, or tried to overturn an election. Look over there is a pathetic defense, come up with something remotely resembling fact. You are only embarrassing yourself.
  22. IIRC Trump started the ball rolling in that respect. The grand juries that have indicted Trump on 91 charges are not all Democrats. That is stretching probabilities further than the Brooklyn Bridge. Ironic you should be talking about contravening the democratic process, when Trump himself is posting and speechifying about how he wants to discard it. If a jury convicts Trump in the case before Aileen Cannon, obviously that jury is all pinkos too.
  23. I love it when guys like you start frothing at the mouth about liberal lefty pinko commies. Please continue.......
  24. One with more brain cells than you, obviously.
  25. When I was younger, I was in a few fights. Won some, lost some. My last fight was with a trained boxer, I was lucky he was drunk. After that, I decided I needed some training myself. I was working in a place which was like the Wild West. I asked a jiu-jutsu champion there to teach me. He taught me a lot about fighting, and pushing through pain. I never had another fight. H also taught me to walk away. I never looked for trouble. Too old nowadays to even think of fighting, although in extremis I do know some of the dirtiest tricks around.
