Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Its really not my problem.
If you're not a US citizen, then I guess it's not your direct (financial) problem.
Otherwise, I think the point of the article is that, if re-elected, he's going to grift even harder than the first time by funneling even more taxpayer money into his businesses.
If re-elected we've all of a sudden got so many more problems, his grift falls way down the list. I'm would be more concerned about ever having an election again if Trump gets back into power than I am if he self-enriches while in office.
Him being further in debt, real debt that he actually has to put up money to deal with is absolutely fantastic. It puts him in a weaker, less flexible position for bullshit going into he election. His corruption will be on full display as he robs Peter to pay Paul.
This article is a bit of a gaslight. Its really not our problem. Him being elected again is a much bigger problem. Him having to pay up on these debts makes that harder.
He was trying to get a Trump Tower in Moscow and pretty much bowing down to Putin and trying to break up NATO to help Russia. He'll do anything for money, it's a big problem
Seriously! If I’m broke and owe people money is Trump gonna come and help me out? If not, that fucker can lie in the bed he’s made. If he can’t afford to pay, garnish his wages. At the end of the day, Trump is a regular citizen. Whether he accepts it or not is irrelevant to the facts. He might be rich (or once was) and is used to the silver spoon lifestyle, but why should that matter to me? The closest I’ll get to “silver spoon” is stainless steel. The closest this dude should get to compassion is the warm embrace of a guillotine.
How's that hole in the sand treating you?
