I don't. Think how much it would cost for maintenance, and employing the people to run it.

 

Much easier to fly first class. As the old saying goes, if it flies, floats, or f###s, it's always cheaper to rent.

ER - no. The bond was secured with a dubious loan from a California company with less NTA than the bond amount. I understand the legal eagles are still arguing about it.

 

That was after Trump's lawyers said he could not come up with the $450 million in cash originally required.

And he fancies himself an expert on bargirls, has a whole thread on this forum dedicated to documenting his criminal activity, and gets all worked up about Trump calling a payment to his lawyer a legal expense, how funny is that? 

Trump was compensating a lawyer who paid off Stormy Daniels, and called it a legal expense. Basic fraud.

So, the media is now saying that illegal border crossings have plummeted to about what they were under Trump, which they claim proves that Biden/Harris are tough on the border. 

But does it also shows that:

1, Illegal crossings were much lower under Trump, and

2, that the Biden Administration has been lying for three years saying the border was closed, and

3, the that the Biden Administration has been lying for three years saying that they could do nothing without legislation, and

4, that the Biden Administration has been lying by claiming the border issue is Republicans fault for stopping the ridiculous bill. 

Biden and Harris are both liars, they could have stopped the flood of illegals flooding across the border any time they liked, but the left wants open borders, so they left it open until the election. 

 

Elizabeth Warren was on CNN’s “State of the Union” saying what we need is “comprehensive immigration reform” which included more funding to support migrants (illegal aliens), and a pathway to citizenship (so that they can vote) and that Harris will work with congress to get that done. 
 

Context matters. The last time illegal border crossings  really peaked was in 2020 during the last year of the Clinton term. it was a period of civil unrest and economic problems in Central America. The numbers started to increase again with the Trump administration. This increase accompanied civil unrest in migrant nations. Had it not been for Covid, which allowed the legal closing of US borders, the USA would have seen a massive influx of migrants.  Once the border closing was lifted, the pent up migrations came back and surged. Border walls could not stop these migrants. What was needed was increased personnel and processing potential to legally remove the migrants quickly. That was why there was a bipartisan effort to fund the border.

 

Everyone knows that the border is screwed up. President Bush (the son) had a decent border  agreement ready to go, but extremist Republicans blocked it. It was a progressive, effective  piece of legislation and would have prevented the problems we see today. the only way to  address the border problem is a combined bipartisan approach. The Trump faction trying to impose its solution that can be challenged in the courts isn't going to work. nor will the "pathway to citizenship" free for all for illegal migrants work. Go back and reconsider the Bush era legislation. it will require give and take from all interested parties.

Perhaps you imagined. The bond is $175 million and is underwritten by Knight Specialty Insurance, which only holds a B++  A.M. Best rating.  As reported by Forbes, Trump secured his bond with his Schwab brokerage investment account as collateral. The Schwab investment account "allows you to buy and sell a variety of investments, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and ETFs. "

I mention the B++ rating because it reinforces the refusal of bond issuers to underwrite the trump bond because of underwriting concerns.  Almost all lending covenants with well financed  financial institutions require insurance to be placed with insurers who have no less than an A or A- rating.

Don't be so sure of that. Trump claims he knew nothing about it despite it being steered by close confidants who served in his administration. When MAGA talks about a deep state, this is an example, except it is the Trump faction acting as a state within a state.

The money that Trump's lawyer was paid was for the lawyer paying off Stormy Daniels, not legal fees.

 

This way established in a court of law.

 

You continue to make noise about this, despite Trump being convicted 34 times.

If you add up Project 2025, the associated writings of the manifesto's authors, and Trump's statements, it adds up to Fascism.
