Thanks for another good MM.

Enjoyed scrolling the FEC Trump $.

I have approximately no doubt that Trump is, on paper at least, cash poor for tax dodging reasons. (Odds are that’s the way he qualified for a NYS handout to homeowners who earned less than $50,000/year.) Hence asking the little peoples for contributions. It’s a grift, of course, but also something of a necessity.

Too, I wonder: there was a lot of buzz around 2020 about all the loans coming due. I wonder whether the increased interest rates has been a problem. In addition, a lot those loans came out of Deutsche Bank’s private bank and... Trump’s person there who was always quick to OK loans to him got kicked out a few years ago.

Note: my god, no way is the preceding any defense of Trump at all.

I'm pretty sure that Trump is all debt, starting with the lien Satan has on his soul

Carlos De Oliveira has lived in Florida for at least 20 years and is having trouble finding local counsel? Could it be that local lawyers don't want to chance their fees being 'paid" by fee-dodger trump? Or recognize that there is a sharp conflict of interest since his testimony might well sink trump? Or is it just that the pool of local lawyers willing to get involved in this mess has dwindled to zero?

It seems the Reps need to start looking into Billy Carter before Jimmy passes. What a bad joke this party has become!

Always interesting even though your post arrives too late per ET. By then, I've read most in other places and scan.
