No wonder Trump keeps winning!

CBS and Paramount settles lawsuit with awarding Trump millions.

He is not a president, he’s an exorcist. He sues everyone and to save those who are being sued, they settle just to save them from ruined by Trump & his goons at the DOJ.

Can you imagine if Biden, Obama, the Bushes or any other president anyone does this like Trump does? I can’t imagine the backlash from the American people? And the GOBers just stamped their approval by saying or doing nothing to stop this.

I hope one day that a convicted felon goes to jail and not into the presidency so that this nonsense stops!

It goes to his Pres Library.
I’d guess for books he will never read. I don’t see this as much of a victory for him.

At least with Gotti, he made ZERO pretense in letting you know he was an Arch Criminal.

The Convicted Felon is ALSO an Arch Criminal whom most of the media keeps portraying as just another RepubliCANT politician.

I doubt if he or his "top" lawyers can figure out how to get those funds in his or his family pockets without some government oversight.

When he goes, all the resources go to his family in perpetuity.
Nice family grift at US taxpayer expense.

Yes. This is how he rolls. Lawsuit threats and lawsuit reality. And of course now that he has the power to arrest he is threatening with that.
Keith Oblermann's latest pod cast "TRUMP'S RUNNING A PROTECTION RACKET PRESIDENCY" is, as usual, spot on.
