Presidency for sale. All you need is $175M to buy out the democracy
It’s always been, but how much is it to buy a president who doesn’t support genocide? Are any of those available?
Shut up
Are we not allowed to say the ‘G’ word here too? Or is it more upsetting that the American democracy goes to the highest bidders?
Here comes the BoTh SiDeR. I’d take Genocide Joe over Traitor Trump any day.
No, Biden is the president right NOW. The election is over half a year away. This has nothing if to do with Trump..this is about an active genocide. Biden has the power to stop support; this is on him, not on the people speaking up against genocide
Edit: I mean we could have 6+ months of not supporting a state engaging in genocide no matter how the election goes, and I think that’s ok. Hell, Biden might even gain supporters if he stop aid to Israel…but that’s not brought up.
Please explain how trump would have been better and not worse in the Isreal situation?
He would/will be so much goddamn worse.
And all these fucking trolls who suddenly care about the plight of the Palestinian people (really guys they do), insofar as they can use it to criticize the president of the United States, will be nowhere to be found.
Those that are actually real will crawl back into their holes, and never admit they were wrong to push people to not vote.
Unfortunately no we're all out of those. Try back in I dunno, 28 years maybe.
Go back to your cave troll.
To think that Trump is still a running president candidate and endorsing by republican is crazy.
Or am I too sensitive? Maybe I'm just an outsider (not American) and doesn't know what I'm talking about.
No, you reflect how a lot of Americans feel. For me it's not just Trump himself that's crazy, but the politics around Trump. A decent chunk of population wants an autocrat running the show.
Lol it won't though.
The headline seems a bit inaccurate. It stipulates that the bond will be accepted as long as Trump's collateral for the bond -- $175M held in an account with Charles Schwab -- is not invested in securities. So as long as it sits there liquid. Essentially it makes all the wishy washy language in the deal and the debate about the bond issuer's cash on hand kind of moot and almost as if Trump had put up $175M in escrow.
Seems like cash in escrow is how bonds should work.
I think the only way it gets paid is if he finds a way to get someone else to pay it. Or 30 million someone elses.
Why doesn't New York just hand him several million dollars and a court ordered professional wanking? He's defied court orders, threatened staff and family of the court, missed deadlines, provided fraudulent agreements. He has done all sorts of misconduct. If it were one of us, we'd be in jail with our assets seized.
I think Trump's buddy Vince McMahon has liquidated all his stock and is sitting on like 2 billion cash, I thought he was gonna bail Trump out honestly. These rapists like to stick together.
Vince is way too selfish for that if theirs no guarantee ROI
I heard they've always had a competitive thing going, like "my plane is nicer than yours!" Type thing. It's crazy that the last time I watched wrestling like 20 years ago, Vince was a low millionaire, now he's a billionaire and way richer than Trump and can prove it. He's probably waving his money in Donald's face and laughing.
Its crazy that they're both rapists that still have money and freedom.
Rape isn’t so bad
It’s skipping rent and stealing food that you have to look out for
People who can't see the sarcasm in your statement need to go back to reddit.
So, Trump will lose the appeal, KISC will be left with the bill they can't pay, they'll fight it on the grounds that they're not based in NY and delay the judgement by tieing it up in the courts. If Trump wins, he uses his influence to either get them off the hook, or he'll funnel dirty Russian money into KISC to pay it off for them.
Or Trump will tell Knight Specialty Insurance to pound sand like he does with all his other bills
they'll fight it on the grounds that they're not based in NY
No, they will add that this will be subject to NY law. Plus some other bits. It was discussed here: https://youtu.be/wEOuLQ_x8yY
Video has an ex-judge that was in the courtroom.
The judge was just using a metaphor, but I like to think that he was actually referring to a fictional TV show which was about a crafty politician, but that crafty politician was played by a guy who devoted his off-time to sexual assault and sexual harassment.
I wonder what the odds in Vegas are on Trump somehow getting that money out and stiffing the bonds company if he loses the appeal.
