“No, Mr Trump, you see we now know that none of these properties was ever in your name, thanks to the machinations of your erstwhile CFO, who has been telling us all sorts of things in return for favourable treatment in prison. Anyway, the Russian shell company who actually owned the controlling stakes in your holdings has sold all its shares to a second holding company, which has liquidated all its assets in vacant possession. We’ve tried to trace back the web of holding companies, but President for Life Putin has personally blocked any access to any details, for some reason.Which means, Mr Trump, that you are being evicted from their properties, effective immediately. Yes, that includes all Trump Towers, and Mar-a-lago. Do you have friends with whom you can stay? It seems that all of your family members were included in the same scheme, and they’re all homeless as well. Except for Melania and Barron, who are quite happy in a mansion in Paris.”

I wonder what their scam is? The serious hoteliers and bean-crunchers dropped out at ~$200M or so, I think.

Political favors after ‘24? Laundering does seem like the grift here. Hilton is involved which is odd on the surface. Window dressing.

I have to think that several schemes are involved. Finance the loan as a way to bring the money into the country. Rent back space to themselves at inflated rates to bring dirty money in. Run it like an intelligence gathering facility like overseas - the bar there is a huge right wing hangout- lots of info can be picked up - by people and mics. They can have cameras in the rooms and compromise people.

I’m sure there’s a thousand different scams they can run.

Isn’t this a crime?

or did they forget to make it illegal for a president to tell a vice-president to falsify an election result

I know technically there’s no law against fondling a live fish with lascivious intent in a school zone on a Tuesday while dressed as a clown, but only because nobody realised it was a thing we needed a law against.

Winner gets the presidency, and the runner up gets the vice presidency.

Setting “ambition against ambition” might have sounded like a great idea, but it really hasn’t worked out all that well.

Go back to the original system? Adams defeated Jefferson making Jefferson vice president, where he routinely undercut Adams.

“Vice President Trump” would be a fucking disaster. The 12th amendment, which lays out the Jan 6 procedure, ended that scheme. However, the writers of the constitution still believed that bad actors would find it difficult to maintain the coalitions that sustained their power.

Book teasers.

McCarthy, Karl writes, would alert the White House about McConnell’s plan to disinvite Trump. And before the letter could be drafted, “Trump sent out a tweet saying he wouldn’t be attending.”

Nothing you do as president is a crime if congress won’t impeach you and remove you from office.
