  1. His supporters are "weaklings" now. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna219078

  3. The order finalized a settlement between the New York Attorney General’s Office, Trump and the Donald J. Trump Foundation. Then-state Attorney General Barbara Underwood filed a lawsuit against the Trump and his foundation in June 2018. The state accused the organization of “a pattern of persistent illegal conduct, occurring over more than a decade, that includes extensive unlawful political coordination with the Trump presidential campaign, repeated and willful self-dealing transactions to benefit Mr. Trump’s personal and business interests, and violations of basic legal obligations for non-profit foundations.” One specific example cited was a “nationally televised fundraiser Mr. Trump held in lieu of participating in the presidential primary debate in Des Moines, Iowa, on January 28, 2016.” That Iowa fundraiser was billed as a special event for veterans; its website, donaldtrumpforvets.com, featured the name of the Trump Foundation and noted that it was a nonprofit.

  5. Kind of funny this happened under an administration led by somebody who bankrupted several casinos.

These are things that happened. He has already been found guilty. He was permanently barred from operating a charity again because of his misuse of funds.
  7. Trump just can't stand being told no. Probably why he's a rapist, felon, and stole from children and veterans.
  8. I think that if Biden has remained there would be a better chance of the list being released. How much better, I don't know, but definitely better than the Commander in Cheat.
  9. Trump seen pocketing FIFA medal as he walks on stage to hand Chelsea replica club championship trophy - Yahoo Sports https://share.google/xQlXVyfmc8kr2MRBG He's so desperate to look like he's winning at something
  10. It would appear based upon that vote and the actions of the current person in the White House, they are in the business of protecting sexual predators. What is the possible explanation for voting against this?
  11. Children get removed from parents who create an unsafe environment. So not vaccinating your child for bulls*** reasons and exposing them to getting sick and dying isn't exactly some outlying reason that's politically motivated. When I enrolled at a public university, I had to show proof I was vaccinated. I wasn't allowed to register for classes until that happened.
  12. Trump sez: There are no Epstein files.
  13. Maybe this is Trump's way of trying to show up the NFL, since they never let him buy a team, or join or force a merger when he owned a USFL team.
  14. Sounds familiar....... The incident occurred in 2005, when Kraft visited the Russian president in St. Petersburg not long after the Pats won their third Super Bowl title. "I took out the ring and showed it to (Putin), and he put it on and he goes, 'I can kill someone with this ring,' " Kraft told the crowd at a gala at the Waldorf-Astoria in 2013, according to the New York Post. "I put my hand out and he put it in his pocket, and three KGB guys got around him and walked out." The kicker to all this is that Kraft wanted to get the ring back but was strongly persuaded by the George W. Bush White House to let it go. "I really didn't (want to). I had an emotional tie to the ring, it has my name on it," Kraft said in 2013. "I don't want to see it on eBay. There was a pause on the other end of the line, and the voice repeated, 'It would really be in the best interest if you meant to give the ring as a present.'" So that's what Kraft did, releasing a statement describing the ring -- valued at $25,000 -- as a gift to the Russian president.
  15. He's the president so he has it. But to butt your way into a trophy presentation like that is just very tactless. I might understand if he was a big Chelsea fan and got carried away. Or if he had a stake in the team. But just to lurk around, and get presented a winner's medal and to take the original trophy that was supposed to be presented to the winners? How doesn't that sound like somebody who wants everything to be about him?
  16. I doubt it. Trump will just take it with him when he leaves. As to why they gave it to him? It was intended to be short term, just on display, until the tournament was over. Trump just decided to keep it and pulled a Putin where he just said thank you for the gift. If you're the head of FIFA what are you going to do? You don't want to bruise Trump's fragile ego, because if you do it'll make things much harder next year with the World Cup. So you let him keep it, get a replica, and apologize to Chelsea behind the scenes about it. It would be like if the commissioner of the NFL let him display the Lombardi trophy and then let him keep it after the Super Bowl so he wouldn't throw a tantrum and just have another one made to give to the players. This just shows how petty, childish and egotistical he is. The Chelsea players were not liking the fact he tried to steal the spotlight from them.
  17. It'd be hilarious if that thing ended up in a pawn shop somewhere after Trump is out of office.
  18. I'm looking at this from the perspective of somebody who has common sense. I'd understand if there was some kind of tradition of FIFA presenting the actual trophy to the head of state where the tournament was being held. But there isn't. I'm sure the President of FIFA isn't going to say Trump just decided to keep it. They definitely didn't make that trophy just to hand it to him. It sounds a lot like how Putin just stole a Super Bowl ring and Kraft had to save face later and say he gave it to him as a gift.
  19. For 5 minutes I want you to use common sense and rational thinking here. Why would FIFA give a trophy to him? He doesn't have a stake in any of the clubs participating. I can't find any instances of this having happened before. If he showed up at the Super Bowl and they gave him the Lombardi trophy and then gave a replica to the team that won it, I don't think people would like that. The article said that the head of FIFA let him borrow it for display. Then later said to keep it. This sounds like FIFA placating his ego because they have to hold the World Cup here next year, and if they somehow bruised his fragile ego or offended him, he would cause trouble. And we know that it doesn't matter whether it costs the country money or anything else, his ego and feelings matter above all. So they just let him keep it, let him hang around during the trophy ceremony, gave him a medal, and let him feel important. Because it's easier to do that then deal with him being a petty asshole.
  20. https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-kept-gold-club-world-cup-trophy-for-himself-so-fifa-had-to-give-the-winners-a-replica/ This reminds me of how Putin stole a Super Bowl ring from Robert Kraft. Also the players from Chelsea were confused why he was there and why he was presented with a winners medal. As usual he wants everything to be about him.
  21. Still weird how nobody's commented on the stunning lack of due process and evidence being fabricated.
  22. Glass House, a licensed California cannabis grower, said in a statement that immigration agents had valid warrants. The company said workers were detained, and it is helping provide them with legal representation. The farm also grows tomatoes and cucumbers. Nothing illegal about what they were doing.
  23. It's just something he made up.
  24. I think it's funny how these right wing trolls are trying to tell a guy in Iran how Iran/the middle East is.
  25. Jamill was an NJCAA All American though.
