    I am shocked. Shocked.

      Well… Not really that shocked.

        A little shocked, but so little, it can’t even be measured.

      I actually am pretty shocked, but mostly that he was able to get anyone to trust him with money.

        Not true. I just read his comment out loud, so at least one person has said it.

    It’d be hilarious if Trump wasn’t so terrifying. I think the man is a moron, but he could bring an end to our nation if reelected. People need to listen to things like this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DyWIhdg65wg

    You can find this episode outside of YouTube. It’s a very important recounting of history.

      I was hoping it was the Behind the Bastards podcast, way to deliver.

      He could bring an global society two decades ahead of the climate catastrophe.

      We’re in a great timeline.

      More like a serial kleptomaniac who can’t help but forever try to take what’s not his. “Thrill of the crime” or something.

      A lot of heist movies center around similar characters who are always tempted by “one last score”. Their penchant for crime is their defining characteristic, the only thing they’re comfortable doing because they’ve become so good at it.

    Trump voters don’t see an issue with this? Trump’s judgement wasn’t wrong or he wasn’t taking bribes for pardons?

      They won’t even hear about it. And if they do, they’ll figure out a way to make it not in any way Trump’s fault.

      The ones I know say his actions as President outweigh his personal problems.

        Even that is unrealistic. Unemployment skyrocketed under Trump and the economy tumbled, all because Trump thought he could save money by cutting pandemic response preparedness, and undercutting public health all because his ego wouldn’t allow a doctor to get more media time than him.

    An investor and his money are soon parted. All this guy needed was a fake name.

    Given that this is the third time he’s been charged with defrauding people, I’m just kinda wondering what he thought was going to happen. I mean, he stole 200 million the first time around, so I can’t imagine he was short on cash unless he didn’t even bother to evade taxes and stash everything offshore. Which would be shocking.

    The second thing that blows my mind is that he somehow squeezed 35 million out of 150 people. That’s an average commitment of 230k per person. Giant Ponzi schemes I get, but this is like a high school field trip’s worth of investors and he collected 35 million of off them. Wild.
