What The Hell?
Okay, this is kinda weird.
The Trump 2020 reelection campaign paid $50,000 to Junior’s lawyer two weeks before the Russia meeting came out.
“It was not immediately clear whether the campaign expenditure was renumeration for Futerfas’s representation of Trump’s son, on Russia-related or other matters. But the payment sticks out on a presidential campaign’s expenditure list: Futerfas’s expertise is in white collar criminal defense, not political and election law.”
And that ain’t all.
The Trump re-election campaign also paid $89,561 to the Trump Corporation for legal services, just three days after the payment to Futerfas.
The records were released today so I imagine this is gonna get way worse. Have fun and conduct your own search – it’s 4,000 pages!
Thanks to SGray for the heads up.
So his stupid supporters are donating to his 2020 election and it’s going towards his lawyers?
1Surprise, surprise ! Traitor trump and his corrupt little band are scamming his clueless supporters for a reelection that probably never occur. But who’s counting? Traitor trump never met money he didn’t covet, especially someone else’s. But, lets see, money for lawyers before they appearantly needed. What did traitor trump know and more to the point when did he know?
2It’s like Sarah PACs – the better the fools spend their money on grifters than where it actually counts.
3Of course using campaign funds for personal gain is highly illegal. Should be a lot of lawsuits over that.
Which he will need to pay a lawyer for.
4How can the Trump Corporation invoice for legal fees? After all, they’re not a law firm – so they can’t provide legal services. Curiouser and curiouser.
5You get what you pay for.
6If contributers thought they’d get a swift kick in the hindquarters, they’re certainly getting their money’s worth.
I’m sure it’s Trump paying Trump; one thing he’s good at is getting people to game the system so he gets more money. What he needs more money for is anyone’s guess– I’d say to keep the big fans running to keep his ego inflated.
We’re househunting, and twice lately Zillow has burped and sent us a listing for a $10-15million mansion. Have a look at this one, just for a sick laugh– 9 BR, 13 BA, ballroom, “owner’s oasis” (camels may or may not be included), servant’s quarters…. Anybody who can walk up those brick terraces to the front door without giggling is taking themselves WAY too seriously.

7I love Rhea’s Zillow listing. It’s for sale at twice the Zillow estimate of value. Maybe to see if there’s a rick sucker out there?
8Who better than his supporters to pay for his & his family’s legal fees. Now, who’s paying for all the staff who have lawyers?
9Rhea: that’s about the ugliest house I’ve ever seen! Amazingly awful. Thanks for sharing the laugh.
10Rhea … you might have to set up a GoFundMe account to afford that place! LOL It’s gorgeous, but, my God!!!
11Hannah, you are right, that is ONE UGLY mansion: Any self-respecting French house would be barfing in every one of its bidets.
12Wow.
A Chateau, no less. Albeit on a pretty skimpy lot – seriously, barely over 2 acres? Not even a woodland, where peasant poachers could be apprehended and have their thieving hands amputated.
My main reaction, though, is the maintenance of all those floors. You’d need a rider mower, converted with a floor polishing attachment. Or maybe a Zamboni machine, though the corners look a little tight for that.
13O.M.G. Prescient on the need for lawyers? This is a crime family by definition. And none of them have the charm of the Borgias.
14I used to drive around on Long Island and look lovingly at big houses with lots of windows. The windows turned me off real quick.
15Tell the owners of that mansion that they could rent a herd of goats to trim the grass. Seriously. However, our goats just headed for the neighbors’ winter wheat on Thanksgiving Day. They knew how to get there but they had no idea of how to get back. Guess how we spent Thanksgiving? Yep. Dragging goats under, around and through fences.
Traitor Trump was always going to figure out a way to skim. The question is have The Respublikanskaya Partiya agreed to open up the US Treasury in exchange for Trump’s total support of their agenda to steal Social Security, slang the social safety net, and eliminating the American Dream.
16Rhea: My lady and I looked at that charming little cottage for use as a summer home, but didn’t like how cramped it felt.:-)
