…But tonight I say, we must move forward, not backward; upward, not forward; and always pivoting, pivoting, pivoting…
*twirling.
At this rate, the Trump campaign will be developing motion sickness.
“Amnesty for all!”
“Boo!”
“Very well, no amnesty for anyone”
“Boo!”
“Hmm… Amnesty for some, miniature American flags for others.”
“Yay!”
Isn’t that the Konami Code?
No, the Cheat code for the Trump video game is:
Flip UP, flip UP, flip DOWN, flip DOWN, flip LEFT, flip RIGHT, flip LEFT, flip RIGHT, and no $ to the V A.
Gives you 30 lives, then the player can go up Trump tower and it will make it easy to drop Don the Con to the ground.
What was the guy doing when he climbed Trump Tower?
Playing Donkey Con
… yeah, I’ll keep the day job… 
He wanted his ration of play doh.
His behavior is anything but focused; and the articles are talking about abuse of diet pills prescribed by a quack, not responsibly used psychiatric medication.
Question:
If Donald Trump uses campaign funds to legally buy advertising from companies that themselves will pay Donald Trump tens of millions of dollars after the election… is this actionable/illegal?
I’m not quite clear on what you mean by companies that will pay Trump after the election. If Trump is, say, a stockholder in a company and will receive dividends on the same basis as similar, other stockholders, then I’m not aware of anything wrong with that.
If you mean a kickback, which is when a company receives a contract with the expectation that a certain amount would go back to to the candidate as graft, that would most certainly be illegal.
Hard to prove though.
Hypothetical: In September, Trump buys $10 million in services from company A, using campaign donations. Company A delivers some services which it claims are worth $10 million. In January of the following year, company A hires Trump as an executive adviser for the sum of $5 million. Trump does some “advising”.
How do you prove this was a quid pro quo?
It is being openly speculated that Bannon and Trump will form a media group after the election, possibly with Roger Ailes. TV, internet… an alt-right network with Trump at the center.
So if he does forms this Media Group, and it is constituted with the very same people and companies that he has spent the largest amount of campaign dollars on… is this illegal?
While hiring Trump to do anything is an inherently unexplainable action, I would think that there would simply have to be an investigation of the facts to determine whether there was any misconduct. The obvious questions to ask are: did the company perform $10 million worth of work? And is Trump doing $5 million worth of work?
True.
I ask because there’s a company here in San Antonio which was paid $10,000,000 by Donald Trump in June and July, during a period in which he ran no advertising. They built his website, but it’s not a ten-million-dollar website, and there is some local speculation as to what this company exactly did for that 10 million dollars.
But, yes, of course TrumpBart would actually have to happen for anything actionable to then occur. This company could just be taking Trump for a ten-million-dollar ride.
Well, *that’s *reassuring. :rolleyes:
She’s going to head his rapture transition team.
Given a job by his ma, that kind of bootstrapping independence is evocative of Trump’s own story.
