      But since he’s not directly profiting they probably won’t investigate

    And we are supposed to just believe that number. Like 105,000 people that he gathered for his rally in New Jersey at a venue that couldn’t hold more than 20,000

    Everything is a lie with these republicans

      If they say 52 million, it’s probably closer to 2.5 million

    Sure they did.

    Their whole existence and raison d’etre is a lie.

    Let’s see the “pledges” become real, and the subsequent filings…

        Indeed!

        That 100,000 crowd in NJ a few weeks back was FEWER THAN 15,000 (maybe smaller!)

        It never ends,

    Said it in another thread but I’ll say it here too:

    [1] Without external confirmation, I don’t buy it. [2] I’ll never understand why it isn’t a major talking point to tell these mark-ass tricks that the man is playing them for the trick-ass marks they are and fleecing them for all they have, but I guess if even Jesus is too weak they’ll just have to tithe to a different, properly sadistic megachurch.

    I watched a sbs video on his “response”

    It’s very obvious from the video that he knows he’s fucked and saying shit in hopes it’ll save him which it wont

    I’m getting texts about every 12 seconds saying TRUMP IS GUILTY SO YOU SHOULD GIVE MONEY TO THIS PROGRESSIVE CANDIDATE. I can only imagine the campaigning that is happening for people that actually like him.

      Putin is investing in a weaker US. If Trump is not able to deliver that, Putin ain’t investing av anymore…

      Trump’s only chance is if a majority of the members of SCOTUS really are as corrupt as we all fear…
