Deutsche Bank will not do any more business with Trump and Signature bank which Trump has personal accounts with is closing those accounts with him. https://edition.cnn.com/2021/01/12/investing/deutsche-bank-trump/index.html That's a big one. Few, if any banks will touch him with a barge pole. He's getting his comeuppance now. Good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good. I’m sure I read somewhere recently that he has huge loans from Deutsche Bank that need repaid not long after his term in office ends. Good luck renegotiating those payments Donnie.

Like attempting to sue Deutsche Bank for $3bn just before a $340m loan is due to them. Interestingly it looks like they were trying to cut their ties to him long before last weeks events. https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2020/12/02/trumps-deutsche-bank-loans-appear-to-be-in-trouble/?sh=26a3b2301e1f Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gonna get impeached again. 100%. This time with Republicans voting for it too. Business has turned against them and they are now trying to save their legacies and one of their faces. But... do not doubt for one second that if they (Republicans') managed to win these challenges in the courts that they all supported, would have been against Trump now, as they wouldn't be. No ****ing chance. They know the game is now up and power has tilted. The riots last week are mainly an excuse. Most of the Republicans still came out against the voting. After the riots. Not sure exactly what happens if the impeachment goes ahead, but it is pushed back so that the new Democratic led senate then votes on it.

RobboM Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Article in the Washington Post The acting U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Georgia, whose predecessor abruptly resigned one week ago after President Trump complained officials were not doing enough to find election fraud in the state, declared on a call with his staff Monday that “there’s just nothing to” the few claims of fraud the office was examining, according to an audio recording obtained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution." https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/us-attorney-georgia-fraud/2021/01/12/45a527c6-5526-11eb-a817-e5e7f8a406d6_story.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox are so desperate now that they are spending more of their time criticising other stations particularly CNN and MSNBC. I could never be bothered much with Carlson and Hannitay, now I revel in watching them struggle to have something positive to say. Carlson at one time appeared at least to have one reasonable bone in his body, Hannitay was so far in to Trump he hardly makes sense, ylou wonder where their future lies when this all settles.

Resorting to whataboutism is disgraceful. Trump will be impeached, so what Republicans say in the House means nothing. It's when it gets to the Senate is where it counts. McConnell is supposedly in favour of impeachment, which is important if true, but 17 Republicans in the Senate have to vote for impeachment, and that's a tall order.

Jambo-Jimbo Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Just let this little stat sink in, this is Trump's America. There are, as I write, more American troops in Washington D.C. than there is in Iraq & Afghanistan combined. That's right, there are more American soldiers guarding America's capital from Trump supporters than there is fighting the Taliban, IS, Al Qaeda etc etc. There are currently 6,200 in DC, with around 5,000 in Iraq & Afghanistan, by the inauguration there could be 15,000 - 20,000 troops on duty. https://www.businessinsider.com/more-us-troops-be-in-dc-biden-inauguration-iraq-afghanistan-2021-1?r=US&IR=T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
