"I've been dead for thirty years, and I'm still ashamed of you"
Fred Trump has the last laugh; no one needs to give a shit about Donald Trump
I have heard that we are spirits having a human experience. Perhaps those of us who have no conscience are dark spirits having a human experience.
P.A. Speers, Type 1 Sociopath - When Difficult People Are More Than Just Difficult People
Man, it’s got to suck to be Donald J. Diaperload these days. Not only is his dementia becoming increasingly difficult to ignore, but his decades of lies, manipulation, and financial shenanigans are finally catching up with him.
At this point, you need an accountant to keep up with the amount of money Orange Jesus is in the hole. It’s like he can feel the circle beginning to close around him…because it is, and it’s a beautiful thing.
Karma is a real bitch, and it’s made even better when it’s served with a cold, sparkling bottle of Schadenfreude as you sit in front of your television, tally up the damages, and watch the crazy old man rant about the unfairness of it all.
“ERECTION…er, ELECTION INTERFERENCE!!!”
“WITCH HUNT!!!”
“ I WANT MY MOMMY!!!”
OK, I made the last one up, but if you listen to him, whether in videos for Truth Social or at campaign stops, his whining is incessant…and SO tiresome.
WATERFORD TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — Former President Donald Trump railed against the judge who slapped him with a $355 million fine in his New York civil fraud trial and went after the long list of prosecutors with cases against him as he campaigned in Michigan Saturday night while facing penalties that, with interest, could exceed half-a-billion dollars….
On Friday, a judge in New York ordered Trump to pay $355 million after concluding he had lied about his wealth for years, scheming to dupe banks, insurers and others by inflating his wealth on financial statements. Trump has vowed to appeal.
Maybe instead of wasting yet more millions on appeal, which he’s destined to lose, perhaps he should come up with a strategy for paying the judgments against him. We’re talking somewhere in excess of half a BILLION dollars…and the interest is racking up daily.
I don’t know about you, but I have a difficult time imagining a sum that large, yet now the man who claimed his brand won him the Presidency in 2016 is facing more than $500 million in judgments against him because his brand is for shit.
But while Trump might be best advised to try a little kindness in search of some relief and perhaps some hope of leniency, he knows only one strategy- ATTACK, ATTACK, ATTACK!!!
Indeed, scorched Earth, showing no mercy, and taking no prisoners are inferior strategies when you’re not operating from a position of strength. And Donald Trump is not holding anything near a winning hand now.
That penalty came days after Trump was ordered to pay $83.3 million to the writer E. Jean Carroll for damaging her reputation after she accused him of sexual assault.
With interest payments, Trump’s legal debts might now exceed a half-billion dollars — an amount it is unclear whether or not Trump can afford to pay.
Trump cast Friday’s decision as “a lawless and unconstitutional atrocity that sets fire to our laws like no one has ever seen in this country before.”
Isn’t it curious that a man who fancies himself a billionaire is asking “the uneducated” for donations? How stupid does one have to be to fall for this grift?
Wait…you mean to tell me that millions of Americans fall for this shit? Shut the front door….
By this time in the game, you’d think that Trump might be beginning to understand that cheap personal insults might not be a winning strategy, right? Well, that’s about as subtle as he ever gets, so it may be time to recognize that he has no other strategy.
The miracle is that he can still find lawyers willing to debase themselves sufficiently to represent Cult 45.
Everything Trump touches turns to shit…including legal careers.
He called the judge in the case, Arthur Engoron, “crooked,” and New York Attorney General Letitia James, who brought the case, a “lunatic.” He called special counsel Jack Smith, who brought two federal indictments against him an “animal,” while mocking the pronunciation of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ name.
Yes, honey may be sweeter, but Donald Trump has always assumed he can bury his adversaries in tons upon tons of horse shit. In this case, his “foolproof” strategy failed him.
Who’s the fool now, eh?
Trump has succeeded in the GOP primary by casting the charges — which include state and federal criminal indictments across four separate jurisdictions — as part of a coordinated effort by Biden and other Democrats to damage his electoral prosects. He has also repeatedly cast them as an attack on his supporters.
“These repulsive abuses of power are not just an attack on me, they’re really an attack on you and all Americans,” Trump said Saturday. “We’re all in this mess together!”
No, I don’t think Joe and Ethel Sixpack from East Bumfuck, Nebraska, are in this mess with Orange Jesus. They’re still three months behind on payments for their John Deere combine and probably want no part of Donny Diaperload’s half-billion-dollar judgments.
At some point, Donald Trump is going to have to stop blaming everyone but himself and accept responsibility for the mess his stupidity, dishonesty, and lack of native intelligence have visited upon him. To put it in layperson’s terms, Cult 45 is royally fucked. Before long, he won’t be able to get a loan in the state of New York (or anywhere else) to buy a Happy Meal.
Within a few months, he may find himself behind bars, and no matter how much he rails against the fates and the unfairness of it all, he will still come face to face with the truth that no man, not even someone as godlike as himself, is above the law.
For those of us who believe in karma, Donald Trump’s very public takedown is a shitshow well worth waiting for. This is only the beginning, of course, and who knows what the end product will look like, but I’d settle for him being someone’s “girlfriend” in a federal Supermax lockup.
If the asshole dies a poor, broken, bitter old man, that may not be enough for some considering the damage he’s done, but for me it will do. To see him in an orange prison jumpsuit will be a joyous occasion for many of us on the Left who still believe in justice and that no one, not even an orange-hued, adult-diapered, demented sociopath, is above the law.
May he die in a pool of his own bitter tears.
As I said, I don’t know what the denouement of all this legal masturbation will be, but to see Trump scrambling to save his house of cards AND stay out of prison is delicious. What he doesn’t lose to judgments against him, he may well lose to lawyers fees and legal costs.
If trans fats don’t claim his pitiful life first, he may end up penniless down to his adult diapers…and wouldn’t that be a wonderful thing for those of us who’d offer him no mercy? He can spend his final days wallowing in his own filth and mumbling to himself about the injustice of it all.
That might restore my faith in America.
