Wrwest Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 4 hours ago, Fat is a type of crazy said: I don't disagree but, it's all been said before, but it's that equal justice and protections under the law principle. As an outsider I see a stirring need for Trump to be taken to account on things he has done. There's many reasons I don't like Trump - over valuing properties to get bigger loans where they were all paid back is at the lower end. I am playing devil's advocate to ask something - would have this and some other charges been pursued if it wasn't Trump. Not sure. I would personally focus criticism of Trump supporters on things like their acceptance of his support of dictators, trashing of democratic principles e.g. accepting outcome of elections etc etc. Though they should accept he did the wrong thing in this case I wouldn't consider it unreasonable for them to raise the issue of possible bias in the steps leading to todays findings. OK, but as to …” would have this and some other charges been pursued if it wasn't Trump. Not sure.” Might ask Bernie Madoff. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I switch channels now, I'm sick of listening to trump's lies and poor little me whining. Hopefully he will stop conning / begging when he lists Truth Social, but I doubt it. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of what they ask for is provided by Trump and Co. Even his accounting firm was duped!

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.

Popular Post HappyExpat57 Posted February 17 Popular Post Share Posted February 17 2 hours ago, Lacessit said: It was a civil case, criminal penalties don't apply. What with all the cases, and appeals, the cash drain to pay lawyers must be gargantuan by now. Remember the legal eagles are all demanding payment in advance. Only a desperate or incompetent lawyer would work for Trump in arrears. Be patient, the best is yet to come. INTEREST ALONE is $1 million USD PER WEEK whether or not he appeals. If he DOES appeal, he then has to post bond. In his current deleterious financial situation, no credible bank will front him THAT kind of cash, so he's looking for a Tony Soprano to back him. He's also quietly liquidating assets at a rapid pace to raise much needed capitol. The future is looking mighty grim for teflon Don and I could not be happier that the chickens are FINALLY coming home to roost! 3 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC Trump said only mob bosses take the Fifth, then proceeded to invoke it 500 times in one of his depositions. 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Party affiliation doesn't equate to bias, except in the minds of losers. How about the corrupt Clarence Thomas and his QAnon wife? Should Thomas be allowed to rule on anything trumpish? How about Gorsuch, the crazy Catholic woman and the Yale fratboy, all three of whom trump appointed? You know better than to allow someone to lead you away from the core issue.

Hang on a second, I have a penthouse condo for you. 400 sqm. and if that is paid off what exactly is the issue? if i said i wanted a loan on my property and said its worth 3mil, the bank would come and value it themselves 1 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post alanrchase Posted February 17 Popular Post Share Posted February 17 4 hours ago, kingstonkid said: Have you ever owned property. I can tellyou from experience that when you buy propetrty and are using a different property as collateral there is almost always a difference between what you think and the bank does. Also, no one holds a gun to the bank's head. The bank looks at what is provided and balances that with whether they want to agree and or do business with a person. As others have stated this is going to cause almost all commercial property owners to get the hell out of NY state. They all do it. THe banks all do it. I am willing to guarantee that a lot of business is going to leave NY state and that this is gong to go to the supreme court. This is a Dem gtovernor and DEM AG that wanted to make a name for themselves with a DEM judge. Hell the judge under valued the properties that he owns The judge didn't decide the value on any of the properties that Trump owns, he used the values given at the time by the local tax assessors. When Mar A Largo was valued at $26 million for tax assessment Trump sent his lawyers to court to argue it was worth less than that. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad things get punished, not always, but sometimes. Even if you do a bad thing and nothing bad happens, bad things are still bad. Like if I go into the bank and give the bank teller a stick-up note and then I DON'T actually rob the bank, I still did a bad thing. Like I said, bad things are bad. Your -and his- basic defense is: well, not that bad. How's that been working out for Ol' Stinky? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
