Trump and family poised to financially benefit. Grifters one and all. His cult followers continue to laud his corruption.
Haaa Nemui
He’s broke?
Simon Foston
It's hard to imagine now that Peter Cook meant that as satire in 1979. Then again I'm not sure if he could have imagined anything quite as absurd and disturbing as Donald Trump.

Yes, @Haaa Nemui, he's broke. And he'll be even more broke when the civil courts get finished with him. I wouldn't give his carcass to a dog for breakfast; the poor animal would puke.
Bob Fosse
Bingo! Tee hee
Haaa Nemui
@TrevorPeace - yeah, outside of the office he’s done for. I’m quite sure there will be more who have sided with him too. They can protect him at the moment and in turn he can protect them but it won’t be long.

Custer had his last stand and this will be Trump's last scam (before they put the silver bracelets on his little hands and take the perp for a walk - I can dream, can't I?)

POTUS redefined: piece of truly unbelievable ....

Of course, he is broke! He has already been aggressively spamming people to donate to his lawsuits for the mail-in ballots. The fine print says that 50% of the donations will go campaign debt.
His scamming has already infected the rest of the Republican party. Dakota Governor Kristi Noem are asking people to donate to a trump fund that will go directly to her campaign.
Governor's pitch to aid Trump appears to benefit her own campaign fund

PREDICTION:
trump will make as many or stay as long as possible at his various resorts until January, so he can get paid off of the taxpayers dime for all that security staying at his place.
Mark my words!

You give his dummy supporters too much credit. They'll likely keep giving him money for this and all things after he's out of office, including lawsuits, etc.
If he were to open another fake Trump University or ask for money to buy an island for a golf course and create Trumpland, a dictatorship, they'd follow blindly, and give it to him.
Remember, this is a cult, they're pathetic in their devotion, and the weak minded will heed Trump's call.

I encourage every USA loving Trump fan to hand over their hard earned dollars to the billionaire. Serves them right.
Numan
@Superlib
Are you sure that he is really a billionaire?
jack o helen
Well, I wouldn't expect anything less (or more) than this from Trump. He is a grifter and always has been one. He'll con anyone out of as much money as he can before leaving office.

Its pretty clear that the main aim of all this drama he is inflicting on the country is to create a new way of monetizing his supporters. He is hundreds of millions in debt, he doesn’t have a TV show anymore and his hotels are probably losing money now due to Covid.
So keep sending him money you MAGA supporters out there, as soon as he has enough we’ll finally be rid of him.
Numan
His next move will be to start a Political PAC. I wonder when the go fund pages will start popping up to pay the legal fees for all those lawsuits against him as a private citizen will start coming.

His next move will be to start a Political PAC. = His next move will be to start a Go Fund Me pages.

If that was just that. Nothing wrong with being broke. The problem is Trump has never earned enough to cover his lifestyle, so he's lived decades spending millions he owed and never repaid.
He should get an Onlyfans channel and post videos where he'd do the Prez from a studio imitating the White House's decor.
lincolnman
No doubt some will find its way to the "someone" he personally owes $421 million too...
Or is it now over $880 million?
egads man!
Give all your money to Trump so he can fight for his rightful victory (and pay off his debt)!
I wonder if his supporters who comment on his site donated to his fund. If they didn't, then they must hate America and don't believe in their leader.
Bob Fosse
Maybe try a Kickstarter? Get some new hat designs.
Sneezy
Imagine sending your own food and rent money to Donald Trump because he's having a week-long diaper blast after losing the election. Couldn't be me.

This is a family which stole money from the children's cancer charity.
So they cannot fall any further.
Getting their stupid supporters to contribute to repaying trump's debts pales in comparison.
Pukey2
I could have seen that coming a mile away. Remember, this is a family who stole from a children's cancer charity. They have absolutely no shame. Tax payer money has flowed into the family business during the whole of the past four years. Every single meeting has had to take place in one of their resorts or hotels.
The whole family should be locked up in jail next year.

Filing new challenge in election results, bringing the election outcomes to court,..? What for?
Just look at the number of popular votes, most Americans want you to leave the Oval Office. So, let it be, never act like a 'bad and poor loser'..
Alfie Noakes
Trump's contempt for his supporters is bottomless, it seems. And they actually enjoy being ripped off, because it's what they'd do in his position.
