In March 2018, Trump addressed the cases in a campaign video where he said he is ā€œnot a settler.ā€

Ms. Cribb, I believe you mean 2016.

To the topic, I wish the litigants hadnā€™t agree to settle where PeePee admits no wrong doing. . I understand why, I just donā€™t agree.

On Saturday the check, stamped NSF, will be hand delivered back to the Tower, whereupon Mr. Micturition will act suitably surprised.

ā€œIā€™m as pissed about this as everybody else,ā€ heā€™ll say, with a smirk.

Did he pay out of his charity or his campaign fund or did a SuperPAC just pay it for him?

'Cuz you know itā€™s going to wind up one of those.

Donā€™t forget the ubiquitous gag order. No one triumphs over Golden Boy, after all.

Oh, yeah, I forgot all about those stupid gag orders. Someone should create a tally of all the non-disclosure agreements heā€™s forced people to sign (and that he was forced to sign). Thousands, Iā€™m sure.

OMG, thatā€™s EXACTLY what I was thinking.

"But ā€” and I donā€™t settle cases. You know what happens? When you start settling lawsuits, everybody sues you. I donā€™t get sued too often, because I donā€™t settle cases, I win cases in court.ā€

Will he cut us all a check when heā€™s outed as a fraud as president?

"If I had to guess, however, Iā€™d say that the failure to get his administration up and running on time isnā€™t a deliberate choice by Trump; he just has no idea what heā€™s doing, and hasnā€™t surrounded himself with people well-equipped to translate his impulses and his campaign commitments into a full-fledged government. This isnā€™t exactly a surprise. Recall that the Trump Organization has never had a large bureaucracy and that his campaign didnā€™t staff up the way campaigns normally do, so he doesnā€™t really have any relevant management experience. And, of course, heā€™s never demonstrated any significant knowledge in how the government actually works. The results are likely to be damaging to his presidency, and to the nation. "

Not so much a loan. More likely an advance payment for Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania next year.

Setting new standards for high office!

Now, this is something that should make us all proud. Two days before his inauguration, the next President of the United States has paid out $25 Million to settle multiple fraud claims. Also, the 45th President - Donald J. Trump - is a fraud.

Clearly this will be blamed on someone else. Expect a tweet if it is mocked on SNL.

His acolytes will never accept this.

Follow the money!
