From the article - Trump was also forced to admit to misusing charitable funds as part of the settlement.

“Forced”? Did I miss him saying that publicly on camera???

Mine too, I’m just trying to get people to take action that might actually do something to help this situation.

My vote is Russia.

However, Ukrainian oligarch or Saudi Royal would also be pretty good guesses.

He vows a lot of things. He is all vow, no wow.

He settles because he has no choice. He committed the act of fraud. Like everything he does.

Remind me again why ANYONE supports him?

Trump: I just made a total of two million dollars in charitable contributions. I don’t think any other president even comes close.

Trump obeyed a court order?

Typical silliness.

(They won’t win elections by voting down the obstruction article. This kind of appeasement tactic never works. To get any mileage out of opposing the Democratic Party, they need to go Full Manchin.)

BTW, the obstruction article is stronger than the Abuse of Power article. Not that either is remotely weak. But if you won’t impeach a President for refusing to cooperate with a Congressional investigation of actual crimes, you shouldn’t be in Congress.

$50 says he skirted the precise mandate of the court’s order.

I’m fairly certain it is coming from the inauguration fund or campaign donations. No way is it coming out of his own pocket.

Of course that was a crap accusation. Pelosi wasn’t saying she didn’t know the content of the legislation, she was saying that she didn’t know what, exactly, the result would be when it was implemented. So…“you have to pass it to see what’s in it.” Just like you have to give the QB the ball to see what’s in him.

Wondering if Trump uses grift gleaned from having USAF pilots stay at his 5-Star Turnberry Hotel in Scotland?

Also he settles because he wants no discovery to take place. That would show that he is a con artist, grifter, liar, scam artist.
