it seems likely that the states of new york and new jersey have money laundering files on him a mile tall, since the 90's

I mean

The Trump Taj Mahal casino broke anti-money laundering rules 106 times in its first year and a half of operation in the early 1990s, according to the IRS in a 1998 settlement agreement.

Trump's casino ended up paying the Treasury Department a $477,000 fine in 1998 without admitting any liability under the Bank Secrecy Act.


not to mention his 80's real estate mafia connections

I'm hoping for a real prison, not one of those fancy country club rich people prisons. And they feed him only healthy food with lots of vegetables. And his only reading and television material is criticism of him. And every time he lies he gets the hose.

Also, since the dude only hurt himself and not a single other person....I don't have a problem with the dude who ran into the subway pole at all.
If this happens, there is no chance for impeachment cause republicans will just say ehhh he was only trying to protect himself firing comey. He was new at the job! It would take smoking gun collusion with russia to influence the election for him to be outta here.

So what happens if the smallest of these are true? It is a crisis the likes of which we've never seen, but then what is the actual resolution? What are the odds of a president going to prison? I guess the odds of a black president seemed unobtainable once upon a time in a not too distant past election, so maybe.

The U.S. dollar dropped to a three-year low on Wednesday after Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin praised the declining value of the currency in remarks at the World Economic Forum in Davos.


The driver is that it is good for US exports, on the basic level praising your weakening currency as the Treasury Secretary seems like a lousy idea. Immediately after this praise, the dollar fell some more.

it will be a good time for Kushner selling citizenships for investment.

Slowhand claims to have some "dark web" sources that something is going to happen soon. Or something like that.

Mar-a-Lago, the commander-in-chief’s private-club-turned-southern-White-House in Palm Beach, was the backdrop for Epstein’s introduction to one of his dozens of teenage victims, according to court records.
...
In a short-lived lawsuit that Trump decried as “categorically false,” a California woman last year sued Trump and Epstein in federal court in New York City, claiming the two business tycoons raped her when she was 13 years old.
...
While Trump has recently distanced himself from Epstein, a 64-year-old financier, it wasn’t always that way.
...
“I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump said of Epstein during a 2002 interview with New York magazine. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”

The NYT article was behind a pay wall but it appears that Meehan is going the "they asked for it" route? That oughta score big.

This Nunez memo thing is crazy. Sounds like it's a conspiracy theory wrapped up in ideas that you can't see it, or the document it's founded on, because it is classified. So you just have to trust it. And by trusting it that means that you need to sign on to the idea that everybody is out to get Trump

I think Trump admitted to obstruction of justice during a press conference
