[W: #341] Trump is almost $2 billion in debt and the amount is growing

OpportunityCost said:
None of which addresses what I posted. We have tons of CT horseshit in this thread, and you think doubling down interests me?

I think he knows how to make money. I think he will make more. This is exactly what the lawfare was all about. Sick Democrat bastards didn't think they could beat him at the ballot box and decided to try to ruin him in the courts.

All that happened was Americans realized what was going on and they don't like progressive shithead tactics. Trying to ruin a man because of his politics is low, even for your allies.

That's the problem though.
He doesn't seem to know how to make money which is why so many of his businesses end in bankruptcy.
Those bankruptcies all happened before he got into politics so you can't blame the filthy dems or politics.
He's a terrible businessman who just happened to host a show about a rich guy hiring people.

The fact that no bank will now lend him money should be a big red herring but nope, fans like you will vote for him anyway.

That wasn't my point at all. What is happening right now, is you support using government power to ruin an individual. Its wrong. Everything you folks complain about in Trump you are embodying by use the courts instead of the ballot box. Your ire and hatred undermined your own party.

Im not offended. Your post wasn't funny. It was an example of disinformation.

Or if we deflate away our debt?

Deflate away debt? :ROFLMAO:

So you increase the purchasing power of future repayments and it makes debt go away? That's my point. Many people have no business behaving like their opinions or beliefs have any real value to these discussions.
Cope said:
Or how about if we just walk away from it altogether and say we ain't paying?
Click to expand...
That's called default.
Cope said:
You'd think those would be common knowledge as well, right?

Huh? You used the incorrect terminology because you don't have a basic understanding of the subject matter. Common knowledge is above your level.

The courts should prosecute criminals and not give them a pass just because they are a political candidate. I know you want Trump to be above the law because he's a Republican, but that's not how America works.

That isn't what is going on. Some honesty from you on this would be nice.

Trump was indicted by four Grand Juries in four municipalities for a multitude of criminal offences. One of those cases that made it to trial, he was found guilty unanimously ob all counts.
His sole motivation for running for the presidency is to stay out of jail , end of story
Trump is a career criminal and the fact remains that he’s just about $2 billion in debt

The NY appeals court hated almost every single thing about that verdict and appear poised to reverse it. If he hadn't run the miserable bastards you call allies never would have filed. Its political and it's past time you admitted it.

Four grand juries, 64 citizens, regular people like you and me indicted Trump.
The evidence of his criminal activity is in the indictments. The only thing ‘political’ is how Trump successfully used politics to manuever the legal system to avoid accountability and skirt justice.
Roy Cohen taught him well. Trump has avoided accountability his whole adult life.
You’re defending a man that was found guilty of stealing millions from a children’s cancer charity. His businesses were found guilty on multiple felonies of criminal tax fraud. That is the essence of who Trump is.
And if he hadn’t run for the presidency, he’d still be grifting and scamming in the world of NY real estate.

Not if he loses the election. His value drops to zero on November 6th.

Even if he loses Trump still could be useful to Putin.. He's shown to be a traitor.. He's very useful in dividing the country... And Putin loves that..

If he wins he'll be more of a national security threat than he already is. He'll trade favors to hostile governments.

BINGO! Someone in debt is always a red flag when vetting someone for a security clearance. But if he becomes president again he'll just blow that off as rules don't apply to him.
 
HenryChinaski said:
He has about 550 million cash, his properties are underwater, he has huge loans coming due in the summer and there’s not a bank on the planet that will refinance him..
Just another reason why this asshole shouldn’t be given the keys to the candy store.

I wonder if Trump could smuggle a few B2 bombers to them as they're worth a ton of money.

It would be easier to just send them the schematics.

There's a reason financially unstable people are often denied security clearance. They are often susceptible to bribery or blackmail by foreign governments.

Try explaining that to some of our friends here on the far right. Trump has convinced them that a president's personal financials are unimportant.

Does anyone really doubt that Elon is basically buying a US president?

Essentially he is. It is the America in which we currently live. The situation did not happen overnight and American citizens are partially to blame. We allowed it to reach the point where a bloviating, mentally unstable con man with inherited wealth appeals to a significant portion of the nation. Up stumbles Donald Trump.

When the true religion of the nation is greed, the accumulation of things new, bright and shiny, a Trump like person was inevitable.

When money is God, God is money. Money in and of itself has no morals, no ethics, no compassion, no common sense, no loyalty. Unfortunately many Americans are fine with that. And the rest of us have done sweet feck all to change it.

This election may be the last good fight we have for decades. Donald Trump, Elon and other mega wealthy are going to continue to use their money and power to attempt to control America and the world... unless we stop them through laws and education. It won't come easy.
