Discussion: Trump Org Lawyers Appealed To Panama President Days Before Hotel Eviction

But this is typical for Panama, right? Anyone with business problems gets to petition the Panamanian president personally. /s

So now Trump wants to rely on a bilateral investment treaty — a trade agreement — when it suits his personal business?

And sorry to tell you this, Donny, but the fact that the Panamanian courts rejected your request to intervene and recognized the arbitration provisions in your management contract is not enough to trigger a denial of justice claim against Panama. Once again, it’s clear Trump’s lawyers (who have no presence in the small world of international investment arbitration) are lightweights who don’t know what they’re doing.

I got a parking ticket and the courts wouldn’t let me out of it. Here’s hoping a letter to the President of the United States, the Cabinet, and the Chief Justice of the Supreme court will get me so action…

Either Trump org lawyers are complete idiots (or frauds) in thinking a letter to all of these folks is how contract law and arbitrator work, or this is a clear attempt to muscle the “President Trump” name into a backhanded deal. Either way…incompetent or corrupt. Red pill or blue?

Any irony in emerging banana republic petitioning long standing banana republic for injunctive relief in court?There are reems of documentation of money laundering at this site and some explicitly involve the Trump organization.Its a miracle this has been recognized and action taken.The Don hates to part with any cash cow so naturally,conflicts of interest aside, he will have a personal stake in the outcome and whine when things dont go his way.

Irony and humor are two distinctly different things…

Of course not, but it’s just another day in the age of trump. And it IS ironic!

Police officers ordered the Trump management team out of the building.

Can they do the same with the Chiselin’ Trump White House?

I know there is so much going on and that’s becoming impossible to keep up with all the repugnant behavior from most republicans. However, This really should be prominent news for all news media.
