    I mean, as much as I hate Trump, I do also like the idea of him weakening the GOP by draining their coffers to pay an army of lawyers, though I’m guessing he ends up stiffing at least some of his lawyers and pocketing a good portion of the proceeds. Grifters gonna grift.

      I won’t be surprised when we find out those ‘allies’ who want to pay his bills are getting a cut of the grift.
