45th president used one tactic, over and over again, to try and get what he wanted, bullying. Sometimes, it came in the form of want cruelty and bigotry directed towards everyone from war heroes, to disabled reporters, to judges of mexican heritage. Hes a war hero because he was captured. I like people that werent captured. Youve gotta see this guy, oh, i dont know what i said. I dont remember. We are building a wall, hes a mexican, we are building a wall between here and mexico. Sometimes it came in the form of hostile exchanges with the press. You know you are a fake, you know that. Its okay, i know youre not thinking. You never do. Im sorry . No, go ahead. You are a rude terrible person. Sometimes trump recruited other people to aid in the bullying, like encouraging crowds to beat up protesters, or getting fox news to pressure republican senators to oppose his impeachment.

Its of course impossible to tell whether its authentic, just independently. Its nothing that remarks it is obviously false. Where the idf says yes, this was recovered from hamas property that was recovered in israeli territory after the raid of the 7th Of October. But im so im pretty confident that its accurate and true, not forgery. Its explosive reporting, and even more devastating, more devastating situation that we then we could have fathom for these hostages.

But okay. Thats the way i want to put it, though. Its just more fun that way. And you are still crazy and you have to find a way to show in court today they were still crazy. She found a way to do that when it was very clear that for her a single most embarrassing thing that happened in the courtroom today was not admitting her crimes, which she did, was not saying the word guilty, which she did. It was when she had to see how old she is. Oh, lawrence. And thats the reason donald trump is never going to plead guilty. Because you have to say how old you are. I feel that particular pain.

Thank you. Not sinc
Thanks to you at home for joining us this hour. For most of his life donald trump has sold o himself as a successful businessman. He tid it first as a minor new york celebrity and then as a new york tv host and then as probably as a candidate as a president of the United States. Trumps mainni asset, his selli point, if, you will, the reaso we were all supposed to take him seriously and he was a successful leadery of the Real Estate Sfempire that bears his name. But today a judge in new york found that trumps Business Empire has been built in part onrampant fraud. And the judge ordered the disillusion of trumps businesses in the state of new york.
