    Mr. Trump, whose assets make him a billionaire, has not funded his own campaign since 2016, nor has he reported giving any money to a political action committee affiliated with him, Save America, which has paid legal fees related to his indictments and one criminal trial that resulted in felony convictions.

    (Emphasis added) See what the NYT did there? Whatcha trying to say there, NYT? Hm? Could it be that he’s not a billionaire exceptin debt? Now why would they soft-pedal around that I wonder.

    It’s a goddamn mystery!

    When is he not lashing out about something? It’s truly a wonder that he hasn’t had a stroke or heart attack at this point.

      “You do it to yourself, you do. And that’s why it really hurts. Is that you do it to yourself, just you. You and no one else. You do it to yourself.” - Radiohead, predicting Trump being unable to golf.

      I don’t like the guy either, but I don’t like that situation has devolved to the point that he can no longer step outside due to assassination attempts. That level of political violence should not be normalized. (And yes, we all know who was stoking the flames here, this is mostly his own doing.)

        Mostly? Conservatives are entirely responsible for this. He deserves to live in fear. You reap what you sow.

    The craziest thing is that if Donnie had any guts at all he’d have demanded $50 billion from the Saudis on Inauguration Day 2017. Instead, he’s nickel and diming his supporters
