Shouldn't that be considered a proceed of crime?

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

But since he's not directly profiting they probably won't investigate

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 52 points 5 months ago

“Trump campaign says (insert bullshit here)”

[–] Jaysyn@kbin.social 50 points 5 months ago

That's great news for E Jean Caroll.

[–] Pistcow@lemm.ee 48 points 5 months ago

How much of that came from Saudi Arabia?

[–] LEDZeppelin@lemmy.world 40 points 5 months ago (1 children)

And we are supposed to just believe that number. Like 105,000 people that he gathered for his rally in New Jersey at a venue that couldn’t hold more than 20,000

Everything is a lie with these republicans

[–] baldingpudenda@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

If they say 52 million, it's probably closer to 2.5 million

[–] dogsnest@lemmy.world 32 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Sure they did.

Their whole existence and raison d'etre is a lie.

Let's see the "pledges" become real, and the subsequent filings....

Indeed!

That 100,000 crowd in NJ a few weeks back was FEWER THAN 15,000 (maybe smaller!)

It never ends,

[–] dezmd@lemmy.world 22 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Wonder how much of that goes towards his monthly payments for lawsuits he's lost.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 5 months ago

$52,799,999.99

[–] root_beer@midwest.social 11 points 5 months ago

Said it in another thread but I’ll say it here too:

[1] Without external confirmation, I don’t buy it. [2] I’ll never understand why it isn’t a major talking point to tell these mark-ass tricks that the man is playing them for the trick-ass marks they are and fleecing them for all they have, but I guess if even Jesus is too weak they’ll just have to tithe to a different, properly sadistic megachurch.

[–] awake01@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago

Even if that is true.. it seems small. Dude just had to sell a jet.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

I watched a sbs video on his "response"

It's very obvious from the video that he knows he's fucked and saying shit in hopes it'll save him which it wont

The greatest of people

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

I’m getting texts about every 12 seconds saying TRUMP IS GUILTY SO YOU SHOULD GIVE MONEY TO THIS PROGRESSIVE CANDIDATE. I can only imagine the campaigning that is happening for people that actually like him.

[–] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

As expected.

[–] eran_morad@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Putin’s paying his legal bills.

[–] mindlight@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

Putin is investing in a weaker US. If Trump is not able to deliver that, Putin ain't investing av anymore...

Trump's only chance is if a majority of the members of SCOTUS really are as corrupt as we all fear...
