It's incredible how little people are paying attention to this. He is telegraphing exactly what he wants to do. He wants to get this immunity, arrest the democrats, Republicans, DOJ and other officials for treason. Claim that his powers allow for it and then the congress could "impeach him if they think he's broken the law". It's crazy this man is being taken as a legitimate politician.
It's crazy that he was back in 2015!
It's quite incredible now given what's happened in the interim.

Obviously I'm not advocating for this, but I'm surprised nobody has assassinated him yet.

He’d only become a martyr to the ‘deep state conspiracy’ bollocks if that happened.

Though it’s almost be worth it

That sounds like when someone says "allegedly"
I wouldn't be sad at all but I don't wish actual death on people no matter how much they deserved it e.g. Putin.

With one exception who may well already be dead. But that one would involve slow torture first as they damaged a very good friend of mine when she was a child.

Probably. WTF is wrong with people? Why do people keep falling for right wing charlatans who obviously hate and laugh at the fools who vote for them?

God knows.

When we had Boris & Co people talked about it speaking to socially conservative cultural identity and such….and I could make a bit of sense of it, as crazy as it was. Trump is just something else though, it’s a cult beyond reason. How he’s got so many people to double down instead of saying, “actually, I used to rate him but think he’s a bit of a prick now”, it’ll be studied for years and years to come.

It will be interesting to see what happens with him being unable to post a bond to appeal his case.

If the reduce the bond requirements and he still can't get one would be amusing.

If he couldn't appeal and stuff starts getting seized funnier still.

Didn't Kushner do a 2bn Saudi deal? I can't believe Trump let's his Kronies/family do deals without his fat fingers in the pie. Isn't he just hiding wealth he doesn't want people to connect to where ge got it

The bond has to be secured somehow by the 25th. And this will allow him to appeal. But, he has to secure the bond/ or cash in order to appeal.
Not exactly. He can appeal with or without the bond. But the bond would prevent the AG from enforcing the judgement while the appeal played out. Without the bond the AG can move to seize assets even though there's a pending appeal.

If you hear a knock on the door, don't worry it's just the FBI
Not here :smirk:

Especially as I'm not advocating for it, just surprised nobody has had a pop in a country with so many loons with free access to guns. If you get an FBI visit on the basis of not being sad if it happened then you would need to arrest the majority of people in the world.

I like the sound of that.

That is why pundits are talking about Trump Tower, Trump Park Avenue, 40 Wall Street and Seven Springs Estate being among the primary targets if Trump fails to meet the deadline.

In your case it would be the CIA not the FBI :D

Mar-a-lago would be the number 1 target, I'm sure the NY AG would love to kick him out of his home

The main problem with that is the high probablity of a legal dispute between separate jurisdictions (NY vs. Florida) if Tish James goes after Mar-a-Lago instead of bleeding Trump dry straight from NYC.

Aren't the New York ones more profitable too? I thought I read the business would probably collapse without them and hence Mar-a-Lago would be at risk anyway.

They aren't going to run them, they will sell them to the highest bidder

There's going to be a legal dispute anyway + De Santis might see it as an opportunity

...who would presumably pay more for a more profitable asset?good licking
Depends who's bidding, there's plenty of very rich liberal leaning people who would love to give Trump a kick in the balls

You don't get rich by spunking hundreds of millions on an unprofitable asset just to piss someone off.

Well SJR might disagree, but sometimes rich folks just want revenge, I bet Bezos would jump at the chance, Soros and Bloomberg as well probably

Nobody will be surprised, if a fat 77 year old junk food addict dies from a heart attack.
Well yeah, but we were talking about him being assassinated. I don’t think death by bacon cheeseburger qualifies

The CIA tried poisoning Fidel Castro's milkshake, so if there's a will there's a way.

They failed, mind. They also failed at putting explosives in his cigar.
And he then went on to nick their first ever trillion dollar bill. Epic fail.

Didn't the CIA also consider giving him something that would make his beard fall out ?
