And somehow the frosting on the $#|+ cake is how many spineless republicans don’t like him, might even detest him, yet in the media get away with saying the absolute opposite. Mostly out of fear of reading heavily skewed or even paid-for falsified polling.
Soembody said that Trump is from New York but not of it.
Oh no! People who like to commit fraud won’t bring their business here?!
Businesses are leaving, and people are fleeing.
As much as I’d prefer to see him suffer the consequences of his actions, if he decides to flee the country to escape “persecution,” some other country is welcome to have him.
Christ, what a cretinous asshole. Did he “think” that crowd chanting “New York hates you!” outside von bankrupt tower was teasing?
That is a pretty major concern if you are trying to run a financial services sector. I suspect that smarter and less vulgar con men won’t be too intimidated, though.
I suspect you’re right - considering it took a lot of flagrant bullshit, and Trump putting himself and his dealings under a spotlight by running for President for serious consequences to start slowly heading his way.
Trump’s entire life story is explained by the fact that he has always been desperate to be accepted and admired by a NY social elite who hate and despise him all the more for his cringey attempts to gain their respect. Also, racism.
He’s the Ted Cruz of ex-presidents.
… “mobbed-up real-estate asshole” was always a standard New York City character class, but they have never been a majority
Yep, although Cancun (or anywhere in Mexico) would not be on Trump’s list when deciding where to escape to. He’d seek a different kind of ‘getaway adventure’.
… perhaps somewhere with plenty of vodka and rubles? /snark
And Slavic blondes.

Incidentally I got to see Rob Paulsen perform “Nations of the World” live back in March. Great performance, and an incredibly nice and friendly man.
These people fleeing, are they perchance affiliated with the Trump family and its various criminal enterprises?
What if the wall was a long con by Mexico to keep Trump in? They probably want the States to only send their best, which wouldn’t include convicted felons.
No. They started with the 4.6 million registered voters in NYC- and carefully researched the backgrounds of each of them, their associations, investments, social media, emails etc. And when that was completed, the sun had died.
