Additionally, Trumpā€™s lawyers informed the New York Attorneyā€™s General Office Monday that it would not use the foundation Monday to pay for the $25 million settlement it had reached with the Attorney General in a seperate case concerning Trump University. That assurance came in a letter from Trump Organization general counsel Alan Garten, according to a Washington Post report Monday evening.

Yeah, that money will be paid out of the Army Corps of Engineers dredging and levee budget.

When asked how he will pay for the $25 million settlement, Chisleinā€™ Trump responded, ā€œIā€™m going to pay for it from the US Treasury. Hey, Iā€™m president, so thatā€™s my money.ā€

Trump: There are just too many rules and regulations. If we have no income tax at any level, we wont need all these foundations to save tax, will we?

OT (rant):
So itā€™s mostly unavoidable, I figure, but the current TPM front page is mostly full of HOā€™s creepy pictures along with a couple of his fascist followersā€™. The ugliness is utterly hard to handleā€¦

Apparently there are already several pledged faithless electors who will go against Trump. If the trickle of stories turns into a flood, Trump losing the electoral college vote becomes conceivable.

Off topic, but the NC GOP is trying something truly awful. If there are sufficient allegations of problems with the gubernatorial election, the state legislature can declare Pat McCrory the winner of the majority of ā€œlegitimate votesā€, an action which cannot be reviewed by state courts*. Along with their court-packing scheme (which they deny plotting), one branch of state government can effectively conquer the other two. And given how gerrymandered the districts areā€¦I canā€™t even.

Federal courts could review, but it would be headed to Trumpā€™s Supreme Court.

When youā€™re up to your neck in alligators, itā€™s easy to forget you came to drain the swamp. Trump just seems to keep throwing in more alligators.

  1. According to the 990, the net worth of the Foundation is only around $1 Million. 2. Then scan down to page 14 to see who he donates money TO - Project Veritas, hmmmm. 3. Then down to page 21 - who is the largest donor besides Trump Corporation? Victor Pinchuk - a Ukrainian business personā€¦who also has some connection to HRCā€¦

For the RW - they are no better than Dems is they arenā€™t complaining about foreign involvement with Trump.

He can present a tax return showing how he was bilking orphans and widows and then claiming tax credits and his supporters will be fine with itā€¦ Trump was elected to make ā€œlibrulsā€ mad, no economy, no inmigration, no emails, no bullshit, whatever he does that that angers the left the better, Trump does not have to deliver on any of his campaigns promises, all he has to do is keep angering the ā€œbi-coastal eliteā€, the moment he stops doing that then the ā€œReal Americansā€. are going to start questioning him.

Between Trump and his sons and ratso Kutchner are going to loot the country in a way the would embarrass African Strongmen, and red america will be cheering on.
