On MSNBC right now.
The administration and republican party are desperately raising money for their "legal defense fund". But they apparently have nearly no actual real lawyers at the ready beyond Ghouliani and Jay Fucking Sekulow.
It appears they were as unprepared/incompetent legally as they have been in every single other endeavor they have attempted.
But they're grabbing every dollar they can, all the way to the absolute bottom.
Theives to the core.
No opportunity to cash in left behind.
Hey Campaign Finance committee! - got a job for you starting as soon as a new AG is in place. Follow every one of these dollars, it's gonna be a fraud-fest.

(53,971 posts)thought they were when the economy he took credit for but really inherited from Obama was chugging along, creating jobs and reaching Dow Jones heights (he really did none of that).
Then covid hit, and he was warned about it but did nothing but downplay it, as it was a problem he would actually have to solve without suing then just paying lawyers for filing court delays to outlast opponents with his old man's mohey, or his last resort, filing bankruptcy which he did quite a bit of.
The result was/is typical of his handling things. Covid is raging way out of control now than it was at its height before in March and April.

(1,654 posts)At spending the HUUUGE campaign slush fund collected since his inauguration on personal spending of Trump family, first reelection campaign manager, spending at Trump properties for the past 4 years. They have to run this scam because they have NO money left. Now when they realize they may actually not have another 4+ (if Trump has his way). Some of them are realizing the gravy train really may be leaving the station without them and they are desperate for some cash. What better than to fleece the rubes for some more. They are so gullible believing Trump and his family and all the other grifters are being persecuted.
