All in all, it’s therapeutic sometimes. Makes me feel better about a cousin who believes in conspiracy theories. He has a good heart and is absolutely brilliant when compared to some people who are...not.

Not that I disagree that he was guilty--
He was way more guilty than 25MM penalty IMO

But I don't think Trump DOES not his way around a courtroom
I don't think he has ever been IN a courtroom and given actual testimony in either a case he brought against someone or a case someone brought against Trump

He ALWAYS settles---and often time withdraws the case early in the process
He is certainly going to settle that Daniels case before it goes to trial

defamation case against trump

you really think they have a case?
daniels:

A): yes.
B): yes ( defense )
C): no

zervos:

yes

but that doesn't change the fact that these are all active civil cases, which you claimed the POTUS must settle.

He gave his name to that business and had nothing to do with the day to day operations. Who in their right mind thinks trump or anyone has the energy to oversee the plethora of businesses he has? That's why you hire people to run them. Ever wonder why trump always says he has good people?

How about people quit deflecting towards this nonsense and making it about the failed occupation of the Middle East or how a plethora of Americans are on government assitance? You know things he has some control over. Especially the Middle East since he can bring the troops home at anytime. Granted then people would have to face the fact that the same thing happened in the last administration and why didn't they speak up then?

Heartening to see a criminal and a con get some comeuppance. Score 1 for the good guys and let's keep 'em coming. SO MUCH MORE Trump malfeasance needing redress. Trump swims in a whirlpool of chaos, scamming and skulduggery. Just gotta reach in and pull out something slimy. He's bought his way out of much of it but still lots remaining.

When you're a guy without a conscience and only an ego like Trump, you don't lose any sleep about the meanness, large and small, done to others. Just concerned about himself and his tee off time (for both golf and Twitter).

Imagine Trump one day playing checkers out in the yard during rec time with Bernie Madoff. What tales they could tell about whose was bigger back in the day. Ah, good times! Wonder how many times Melania would visit him before she stopped?

Trumps has indeed given testimony under oath and lied, which is why his attorneys crap their pants at the thought of him giving testimony.

so why hasn't anybody charge Trump for lying under oath? is not like New York is a pro-Republican state. Can't you find an attorney general from New York to charge Trump? Democrats run that state.

if he didn't settle and was spending time in court, you liberals would complain about that also. That he is using tax payer's money while President defending his civil case.

this is how silly you libs are.
Why he spends 1/2 his time watching Fox and Friends and on twitter and the other half playing golf.

He claimed he never " settled" lawsuits. Yet the facts historically contradict that statement.
