Are you confusing the "Washington establishment" with rich people?

Do you know who was funding the Trump?  
 

They are not by any means all in Washington and some where not even Americans.

The day of reckoning is fast approaching. He's not just "against the establishment". He wants to BE the establishment. Dictator trump. And BTW, "my lot" are anxious to break out the champaign. Hmm, 91 justified indictments.

What charges have been vacated?

None. Trump claimed that and skip here treated that as accurate information. 

The judge has already refuted this claim.

 

“Statutes of limitations bar claims, not evidence,” Engoron said Tuesday when debunking Trump’s claim, as quoted by the AP. “I want to emphasize: This trial is not an opportunity to relitigate what I have already decided,” he added, referring to his earlier order that allowed pre-2014 evidence.

Perhaps, but that does not change that when I refer to the Establishment I am referring to Washington.

 

I thought that was self evident, but I appear to be mistaken about that with certain posters.

With respect, I would suggest you are mistaken about the majority of posters.

 

From your previous posts, what is in your head would not be self-evident to the average critical thinker, as your head is likely a place where one would not voluntarily choose to venture.

 

Though to hazard a guess of what could be self-evident, in your case it would be the opposite to any logical consensus.

 

The Establishment is a word that does not exclusively mean Washington.

 

'The Establishment usually is a self-selecting, closed élite entrenched within specific institutions — hence, a relatively small social class can exercise all socio-political control.'

Guess that skippy is missing responding because he is totally WRONG! Typical M O where if you say it. it is true in Trump world.

 

Earlier in the morning, Engoron contradicted Trump’s claim to reporters that the judge “overruled” himself and about 80% of the AG’s case would soon disappear.

The truth is not an insult. You must have the same traits as your thin skinned cult hero, who is a lying, cry baby, the world is against me, pathetic narcissistic conman.

 

You really should google Dunning Kruger and move yourself pass point 1.

Are you sure they're not mortified to realize that they could have simply ticked a box on the form and had a jury trial instead of putting it in the hands of the Judge?

But but Trump said he only hired the best people. LOL.

Oh yeah, he opted out of a jury trial.  Wow, new standards of idiocy.

Well, to be fair, it was his dumb@ss lawyers who opted out of a jury trial. Now Trump is trying to pin this on the judge, screaming how unfair it is that he didn’t get a jury trial. His mindless base, of course, will eat it up and start threatening the judge, and Trump will milk it for all it’s worth. 

[spidermike007]

This man is so pathological, so caught up in his own delusion, that he likely believes his own false narrative. When someone has done nothing but lie for his entire lifetime, truth must seem very scary, and threatening. He would likely be more familiar with the great outdoors, or a national park, than any sort of truth or integrity. Hopefully, this is his downfall, and the law has finally caught up to him, after a lifetime devoted to swindles, grifting and crime.

The labor unions are a valid example, because the rich hate them, as does Trump. Because Trump lives in the Establishment.

Trump is the poster boy of the Establishment, an entitled, silver spoon, spoiled rich brat who has conned his way through life, brought ruin upon tens of thousands of small businesses and contractors by stiffing them with the bill, and he has never taken responsibility for anything. 

[herfiehandbag]

Is not sounding off about the judge like that, once the trial has started, contempt of court?

 

The look on the faces of his lawyer's when he opened his mouth was very funny! The lady in particular looked like a bulldog chewing a wasp!

Not so much of 'the poster boy of the Establishment now'.

 

Trump has been booted from the country’s most exclusive club

 

'Trump is now $300 million short to qualify for The Forbes 400 ranking of America’s richest people.

 

According to Forbes, Trump has "relentlessly" lied to reporters for decades in his attempts to boost himself higher in the list'.

Verbally abusing the judge doesn't get them on your side, ever. It does the opposite, as Trump did in saying he would make America great again while instead making the country a worldwide laughing stock.

Yes, they could lock him up, but I'm pretty sure they realise what the political fallout would be if they did so.

Seems they bit off a bit more than they can chew with this defendant.

 

Meanwhile Trump just keeps getting more support every time he appears in court.

Only die-hard Trump supporters are still following him. He won 1 election after that nothing. More and more people see him for the pathetic cheat he is. Most Trump supporters of a few years ago on this forum are gone too. 

Yet there are still a couple of willingly uninformed, not too bright people who just parrot all the nonsense Trump is screaming and think they know what is actually happening. They will get a rude awakening in the years to come.

Most of this trial is totally bogus - the fact a judge with no history of real estate has said that trumps home in Florida is worth 18 million dollars

Bogus comment, not uncommon in your case. A real estate valuator said it was worth between 18-27 million dollars. Comparing the value of an estate to art, it is worth what somebody could pay for it (a Suadi investor MIGHT pay a billion) is nonsense too. It would be worth that if he had an actual offer for a billion dollars but he hasn't, it is all in his mind. Dreams don't create value.

I’m expecting some seriously unhinged rants (as per usual) by Trump on his ‘truth social’, where he’s going to say the people at Forbes are stupid or deranged and  out to get him, and that he’s so vastly wealthy that he should at least be in the top 50. Anyone want to bet me?

Like a previous poster said already: telling the truth is not an insult. It may hurt your feelings because you think otherwise, but that’s your problem.

I, for one, have zero patience anymore with the blatant ignorance and stupidity that MAGA seems to have embraced. I see no reason not to keep calling out MAGA cult members when they claim something that is demonstrably untrue, or just plain ridiculous.

And finally: I see plenty of insults and degrading comments from ‘your side’, so if you’re man enough to dish it out, you also got to be man enough to suck it up and take a couple on the chin every now and then.

NextG posted this in another thread. (Sorry for stealing their words, but perfect).

 

You didn’t seem to fare too well in discussions with people who actually knew something about what was being discussed. Your reaction to being given information other than what you thought you knew, was not that of an intelligent person, but of someone whose character is based on thinking that they were the smartest in the room and being roundly disabused of that notion.

 

This hats fits you so well. Like all the fake cult hero worshippers in this thread.

How many millions he has paid to E. Rose Carroll for his sexual assault?

 

How about Trump being barred from operating a charity in New York because of the money he diverted?
