Hear me out: Mar-a-Lago reverse mortgage.

It's insane that this rapist is currently pillaging a formerly proud (and current corrupt shell) 200 year old political party because Republican voters are so wrapped up in identity politics that this man still has above a 50% chance of winning.

He is probably on Quicken Loans site right now filling out the forms.

Rhule presser at 10am this morning.

In a nutshell, Archy. Early in his Presidency, Donald Trump stood next to Vladimir Putin and told the world he trusted Putin over the unanimous conclusion of his 17 U.S. intelligence agencies. Republicans anxious to support Trump quickly began softening longstanding rhetoric around Putin and Russia. Fox News was already on board, its pundits having aired segments showing the shirtless Putin and wishing aloud Obama was this manly and commanding. Trump gets blustery about NATO not paying its bill, not quite understanding how the agreement works. Putin joins a list of other world leaders, including Viktor Orban, admired for their autocratic rule rather than democratic principals. Next thing you know, Fox pundits, farther right media, and elected Republicans are wondering if Russia is the real victim in the Ukraine war. Yada yada yada...Tucker Carlson goes to Moscow, declares it nicer than any American city, expresses his disgust for the United States, and gives Putin the hand-picked platform he wanted. Tucker is currently on a short list for either Vice-President or Secretary of State in a second Trump term. Bada-bing, bada boom. It's not just two douchebags in t-shirts.

There's no bad publicity because his voters are a hopeless horde of people who are dangerously disconnected from reality. These morons embrace Trump as their champion and believe he's just like they are... all while being used and abused. When he's done raping pillaging the Republican Party to pay his many legal fees - something he's been prone to do if you didn't know - I hope you can be proud as a two time Trump voter and Republican politics supporter at the monster you've created.

Bingo! And the media/Left falls for it every time. https://www.mediaite.com/tv/fox-host-says-trump-knows-theres-no-bad-publicity-and-drops-certain-words-to-ignite-media-firestorms/

We should get rid of the guy in charge...

Ahhhhh got it! Okay, that makes sense. Thanks! Ha! I am gonna get a vacation for being mean to me.

I can't believe that facility still isn't finished.

Mods? Isn't this a TOS violation?

The bond is to get immediate cash to pay the fine. It will take some time to sell any assets, since necessarily they will have to be quite large (like a golf resort) to cover that kind of fine. It's understandable that a billionaire wouldn't have that kind of liquid cash on hand. That would all be invested, in his case likely in property. The interesting question is how much of the assets that bear his name are actually owned by him, and how much are just leased or borrowed. I'm guessing his "empire" is a house of cards propped up by paperwork rather than actual ownership. He's basically playing Three Card Monte with banks.

Like I said, it's more of a softening rather than blatant pro-Putin agenda, although that softening has consequences, including a changing rhetoric on Ukraine that is increasingly dividing Republican lawmakers. (Trump himself has called Putin's invasion "smart" and "savvy" and said Putin could do whatever he wanted against any NATO ally caught slacking, and he's the leading candidate to be President fwiw). https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/how-stalled-u-s-aid-for-ukraine-exemplifies-gops-softening-stance-on-russia I do think foreign aid is the hot potato it's always been, asking U.S. taxpayers to simply accept the expenditure of billions to fight murky and often unresolvable wars. If Congress were to open the books on our commitment to Ukraine and Israel at the same time, things could get interesting. Demanding that the U.S. no longer serve as the world's policeman creates an odd coalition of the Left and Right, and would likely signal the end of the American empire. I doubt that we're going there, myself.

I am dumb but, what is the bond for? Don't you just pay the fine and/or start selling stuff?

It's important to point out that Trump had alienated a huge swath of banks, lawyers, and investors long before his Presidency. His reputation for dishonesty and non-payment was not a political hit job, it's just who he is and always has been.

Maybe the other kids weren't trying to find you because you have cooties.

it won't stop with Ukraine if putin wins

Then sell your assets if you don't have the cash on hand. That's what any of the rest of us would have to do if we lost a judgment like this. You don't get special treatment because you claim to be a billionaire.

First, I've never argued anything different. Second:

Have whatever opinion you want. Mine is f#&% Trev. He took a lateral move for lateral money, away from his alma mater because things weren’t absolutely perfect with the leadership. Boo frikken hoo.

Trev just needs to shut his dirty whore mouth. Does he actually think his comments are cute?

Agree that a bit of what you said is relevant to the point. Others might think the rest doesn’t pertain to the discussion at hand or is kinda false. Trump was falsely accused by people Democrats and Never Trumpers working within those 17 IC agencies of conspiring with Russia to win 2016 election. Which has been proven to be absurdly false which we all know now and agree to. I do agree that’s it’s strange to politically flex on another party by saying some foreign leader is so much tougher than what we have. We know why they do it, (for the partisan media likes and social media hits and fanfare) but it’s ridiculous none the less. Whether or not Trump knows how NATO works, it was common knowledge many countries were getting an almost free security ride paid for by the good ol USA. As you know, NATO funding stepped up after Trumps pressure campaign. I don’t know what Fox pundits say unless Buster posts it here, I don’t watch cable news of any kind anymore. I would have to see a relevant political pundit say Russia is the victim before acknowledging your statement as true. Tucker is a buffoon for his statements about Moscow and he is getting roundly mocked for them. As he should. And yes, two dolts in a HAHA shirt does not equate to GOP lawmakers actively trying to set policy for Russia instead of our interests which was the original thesis by someone

Anybody else care to explain to me how that a$$h@!e is the victim here? I'd really love it explained in greater detail. I really didn't think the "Donald J. Trump, perpetual victim" movement needed more steam, but it chugs along.

Good god man. It's way easier to be upset about the complete weirdo spouting fascist incitement than the damn headlines.

I’m not a fan of what the selection committees did here. This should be about the players and coaches. Not an AD.

They also play Friday but it doesn't look like game times have been announced yet.

I believe the online feedback really isn't as much...or due to Trump for a good percentage...it's because of the hypocrisy.

Well the real best team in the conference wins the tourney...and they get in the bracket with what, 5 Kenpom top 20 teams? Classic! Oh well...

No, that's not what he said. He said "contact happens on one [end] and they call it a foul. Go the other way and they don't call a foul." That doesn't make it inconsistent. That means that the contact on one end was a foul and while the other contact wasn't. Just because there is contact doesn't mean there is a foul. Not all contact is equal.

She’s a complete moron, we all agree. But why post fake videos passing them off as real?

Obviously not. There are many issues with the NET, but using name recognition isn't one of them.

No...no you don't. That is sort of the point.

No ones asking you cry crocodile tears, or elephant tears, or human tears. No ones asking you to defend Trump. All @DevoHusker pointed out was why defend the misinformation and the hypocrisy of many on the Left or certain people on the board not caring about sharing misinformation as long as it’s pointed at Trump or Republicans. There are many things to drag Trump over one could share in posts that are quite true. Why support the posts that are disinformation?

I hate Trump, so really don't care...but all the D headlines over this are misinformation. Thought you guys didn't like that.

They do. Or, it would already be passed.

If the Top 1% was paying 70% of taxes and now they’re paying 80% of taxes, with a lower tax rate now than before, that means their piece of the pie increased by a lot. That isn’t a reason to lower their rate further. They are making more money than before. And I don’t think BRB is suggesting we increase minimum wage further to address the wealth gap.
