NY AG files civil fraud suit against Trump

[Darat]

I think one thing that is very clear is that the state is completely justified in barring these guys from owning any companies in the state. They have established that they pay no attention to anything that is going on and let accountants deal with it, and just blindly sign things.

That's if we take their testimony at face value. They have no business running a company.

Don’t forget they’ve already been banned from running any charity in the state and had to pay two million back to several charities that he admitted he had misused their funds for his political campaign. https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/201...ed-2-million-illegally-using-trump-foundation

(Aside: How can a man deemed unfit to run a charity and who admitted he misused charities funds, or as most of us would say, stole money from charities he was involved with be a candidate to become the US president is beyond me.)

I do wonder if in this trial they will bring up his admissions? It would show he has “form” in regard to fraud.

Better?

Yeah.

Answer: Have you seen his rallies? Seen interviews with them? My senile dog has a higher IQ than you'll find at an entire Trump rally combined.

Oh. Sure. Can your dog spell U S eh?

You stupid ****. If you are going to sign a document you have the responsibility to know what you are signing. What do you think you are being paid for?

For being daddy's special boy?

They also really need to be told to change hairstyles. Not slicking the hair back won't make them not be douchebags, but slicking it back definitely makes it more obvious.

It might be necessary, imagine being born with Trumps head of unruly, misshapen hair, and how they must have to deal with it, outside of shaving it off completely.

Looks like Ivanka Trump failed in her attempt to delay the trial...

From: The Guardian
Ivanka Trump’s argument that she should be spared giving midweek testimony in her father Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial in New York because she is a busy mother of school-aged children in Florida was given short shrift by an appeals court...“Application for interim stay pending decision on the motion is denied,” the judges wrote..

Must be really hard for her, being a single mother struggling to get by. Too bad she didn't have a husband to look after the kids for an evening, or the money to hire a babysitter for a day.

I'm sure she gets up early to make them each a brown-bagged lunch. Cuts a smiley face into the bologna, and writes messages on the paper napkins.

Exactly how stupid do these people think we are? Oh. Wait . . . .

Anyone who thinks Ivanka doesn't have a live-in nanny for her kids, raise your hand.

A nanny? I bet there's a whole team!

I bet she Facetimes the kids to bed either from her hotel room in Beijing, or from her office on Lexington, or from the pool cabana downstairs.

"“Since the commencement of this bench trial, my chambers have been inundated with hundreds of harassing and threatening phone calls, voicemails, emails, letters and packages."

Wow.

Trump's lawyers are whining because the judge is ... consulting with his law clerk?

They know what legal clerks do. This is just total theatre.

(Remember, 90% of conservative outrage is learning how things actually work)

Theater timed to distract from Eric's most damaging testimony most likely. I can't remember if that was about paying Weisselberg hush money or that the appraisals were "perfect" or some other such whoops. There are mixed stories in the different new accounts.

From the back of the local shíbín most likely.

Trump family on trial: five takeaways from a week in the New York fraud case

Both of Trump’s adult sons denied ever working on the statements of financial condition. Eric Trump went so far as to imply that he only ever learned about the statement when the attorney general opened the case against the family. But multiple documents show both brothers signed off on deals that involved the use of the financial statements to confirm their father’s net worth.
