      Humiliation is usually the price to pay to get off scot-free. All of them (Powell, Cheseboro and Ellis) walked away without a blemish. They had charges completely dismissed and new peripheral charges inserted (Powell) or plead to something peripheral to the main case (Cheseboro and Ellis) and in fact it was not even a true plea. It was a traffic court plea. Take a traffic school course, no admission of guilt or guilty judgment, expunged from record, walk way looking like nothing ever happened. They entered plea proceedings where the disposition was GA first offender status which holds in abeyance any guilty judgment until the terms of the program are fulfilled and then it all goes completely away like a traffic ticket plea!

      @@CommonSense1776US I don't think it's quite scot-free. They were unindicted co-conspirators in Jack Smith's DC indictment, and pleading guilty even to these counts does not make it less likely that they'll be indicted eventually, and if they ARE indicted it makes it harder to mount a defense. That is probably why they insisted on those counts, which I think makes legal sense--it's not just this trial that matters for them.

      I feel like there is a chance for Rudy to avoid going to prison. It's small, but he did used to be a federal prosecutor, pioneered the use of the same laws he's charged with breaking, and Fani Willis has already been pretty generous with Trump's other henchcreatures. Anything Rudy says or does will be handed to Jack Smith on a silver platter as well, so if Rudy were to make some kind of plea deal (a process he's been on the other end of many times before) and sell out his traitor of a boss, then his advanced age and previous service as a prosecutor could cause him to evade prison. If he does go that route though, I think there's an even chance of him avoiding prison as he does of ending up in some sort of retirement home or state hospital after his depositions revealed signs of dementia.

I knew that I bore a personal liability if they were not. I also made it clear to all new board members that accepting a position on such a board meant that one was liable "separately and severally" for the actions of those organizations. These were organizations with budgets less than $1 million annually, not the multi-million dollar businesses that the Trumps are signing off on.

      @@Lv-nq9qz keep riding the NO FACTS DEMOCRAT DONKEY = = = An analysis of documents, some of which only became public in recent weeks, shows just how much Trump’s businesses raked in while he was in office. Dig through everything-including property records, ethics disclosures, debt documents and securities filings-and you’ll find about $2.4 billion of revenue from January 2017 to December 2020. If not for the pandemic, there would have been even more. Trump’s business was hauling in about $650 million annually during the first three years of his presidency. But in 2020, revenues plunged to an estimated $450 million as Covid infected the business. “It’s hurting me, and it’s hurting Hilton, and it’s hurting all of the great hotel chains all over the world,” Trump said in a March 2020 press conference at the White House. “It’s hurting everybody. I mean, there are very few businesses that are doing well now.” The biggest portion of Trump’s revenue flowed through his clubs and golf properties, which generated approximately $940 million over four years. Trump National Doral, the golf resort in Miami, contributed roughly $270 million to that total. Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s club in Palm Beach, brought in about $90 million. A New Jersey golf club, where the former president has been spending time this summer, took in $60 million or so. Those top-line figures didn’t all end up in Trump’s pocket, however. Golf clubs and resorts are expensive to manage, with operating profit margins running at 20% in good times. During the pandemic, Trump’s traditional courses fared reasonably well, but his golf resorts had to contend with long shutdowns, causing his overall golf and club revenues to drop 27% to an estimated $190 million in 2020.

    As for Mar-a-Lago, it was built in the mid 1920s by Marjorie Post, daughter to the owner of General Foods Corp., as her winter home. When she passed away in 1973, she left it to the US government to be used as a winter home for the president, only none had any interest in using it. She left money to maintain it but it wasn't enough, so the government returned it to the Post family who decided to sell it. Trouble was no one wanted it & it sat vacant for years untl Trump bought it in 1985. He offered $15 million, but they rejected it so he bought the land next to it for $2 million to build a home which would block the beach view. The Post family ended up selling it to him for $7 million. The problems with the condition of the property along with it being zoned as commercial & the fact it was designated a historical landmark in 1980 are more than likely the reasons its property value is low. If it was a home like the others in the area, it probably would be worth more but it would never be worth $1 billion. The man's delusional to believe that.

      Examples of Democrat racism
      1857: Democrat Supreme Court justices ruled that slaves are not citizens and could not expect protection from the federal government. The final tally was 7-2, the only votes in favor of the slave were Republicans, all of the the votes against the slave were Democrats.
      1863: Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation stated that all slaves were now to be free. Lincoln was assassinated 6 days after the Civil War by a Democrat named John Wilkes Booth.
      1864-1869: Amendments 13-15; outlawed slavery (Amendment 1), made citizens of people who were born in the US, protected all citizens from unfair treatment by the states (Amendment 2) and protected citizens right to vote regardless of race and color (Amendment 3). All of the votes, House and Senate, including revisions, were split down party lines- Republicans in favor of, Democrats against.
      1865: The Black Codes, created by the Democrats, these codes prevented blacks from things like owning businesses, owning property and voting.
      1866: The KKK, another Democrat creation, formed as a "military like" presence to combat radical Republicans, enforce black codes and terrorize anyone who opposed their ideology (sound familiar).
      1870's-1965: Jim Crow Laws, created by progressive Democrats, basically a continuation of the Black Codes. Included segregation and played a part in restricting jobs and education.
      1860s-1930s: Lynchings, used by the KKK in the South and the working-class Irish in the North as a way to strike fear into the hearts and minds of mainly black Americans and others who opposed their ideology.
      1871: The Enforcement Act, not one Democrat voted for this bill that would punish violence perpetrated by the KKK. The bill did pass, however President Cleveland (another Democrat) repealed most of the bill roughly 15 years later.
      1918-22: Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill did eventually pass but was filibustered by Democrats.
      1938: New Deal FHA housing discrimination laws.
      1938: Democrat President Franklin Roosevelt appointment and the Democrat Senate's approval of Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard Hugo Black to the Supreme Court.
      1941: Democrat President Franklin Roosevelt appointment and the Democrat Senate's approval of segregationist James F. Byrnes to the Supreme Court.
      1960: Civil Rights Act, set forth for voter protection, disapproved mostly by Democrats.
      1964: Civil Rights Act, would end discrimination regardless of race, sex and religion, also provided more voter protection. Roughly 33% of Democrats voted against compared to roughly 19% of Republicans who voted against. Democrats also filibustered for 60 days.
      1963-69: Lyndon Johnson, he was quoted as saying "I'll have them n*ggers voting Democrat for 200 years" around the same time that he passed his infamous "Great Society" bills, which consisted of welfare, assisted housing and other programs of that nature. We'll discuss the "Great Society" and it's harm to mainly black Americans but also to poor folks of every color a little later.
      1996: Hillary Clinton made a comment that inner-city blacks are super-predators and should be brought to heel.
      2017: In the wake of a white supremacist march organized by Biden operative Richard Spencer in Charlottesville, Virginia on August 12, 2017, Wes Bellamy, the Democrat vice-mayor of Charlottesville under mayor Mike Signer and a local educator, was forced to resign his post in the Virginia Board of Education after he was exposed as a racist via his social media comments, which exposed his racist and sexist views.
      2017: Despite pushing to take down Confederate statues,[18] left-wing activists did not voice any objections to the numerous monuments named after racist Democrat leaders, such as Andrew Johnson, Woodrow Wilson, Lyndon Johnson, and Robert Byrd.
      2018: Many Democrat talking heads made derogatory remarks about Kanye West after he visited the White House to talk with President Trump. One labeled Kanye West as a "token negro" and another said "Kanye West is what happens when negroes don't read."
      2020: Democrat Presidential nominee Joe Biden's comment of "you ain't black" to African American freethinkers wanting to escape the Democrat plantation

      That's the thing, that is what is getting him in trouble. And I honestly don't think Trump understands what is happening. The Judge isn't going out and appraising the value of Mar-a-Lago himself, the 18 million number he used is what Trump has claimed the property was worth when it came time to pay his taxes, he then turned around and claimed it was worth a billion when he needed a loan. That is the crime he is accused of here both undervaluing it for tax purposes and then overvaluing it to the bank. And he is basically admitting he is guilty to half of it, on national TV. While this trial doesn't actually cover the undervaluing on his taxes, if he wins the IRS is then going to want a word with him.
