I'm sincerely hopeful that Don Jr and the other "kids" cost him everything including his freedom.

On another note, will all the NDAs all Trump employees had to sign prior to working at a Trump property become invalid if the properties go into receivership?

That’s an interesting question

I heard a recent ruling where "all" the NDAs were determined to be null and void. Where, i.e., what jurisdiction, I'm at a loss. Sorry. Worth a search if you're so driven 😉

Jessica Denson was that brave staffer. You can read story at Protect Democracy.

Jessica’s podcast, “Lights On,” is worth watching (youtube) She’s made so much progress against Donald’s NDAs!

Exactly!

Good point - There was a class action for all 2016 tRUmp campaign staff - this was recently settled and released all NDAs for that particular group. The NDA was used to punish a staffer, who had it thrown out in 2021. This looks like a class action then followed and was thrown out for all.

For his tRUmp Inc. employees and ex-employees under NDA: I would think, the fraud conviction for BOTH the company AND tRUmp would put those NDA up for another class action lawsuit. Can't keep people under NDA contract when the company and owner are both proven 100% frauds. AFAIK, an NDA is voided for purposes of any trial, but should be formally lifted by a judge to protect other employees.

The derriere, along with several other evolutionary innovations, including the achilles tendon, hairlessness, and the nuchal ligament made it possible for our ancestors to run many miles at a time, which they did in order to catch prey animals. (No other primate runs.) At some more recent point, probably after we (H.sapiens) evolved, it became a secondary sex characteristic. Please do not conflate this body part, which is often attractive on both genders, with the worst ever president of the United States, who is also a thoroughly vile human being.

Fair enough - but if you squint, you'll also see the RUssian connection in this spelling of tRUmp's name.

Well I'll be damned. I did not think of that. I see people writing "tRump" frequently, I find it quite annoying, and it didn't occur to me to look for any different significance. My apologies.

The NDAs have been ruled invalid 2 weeks ago, as he was sued in a class action suit by members of his 2016 campaign! All of Trump's NDAs are void!

Mary, I just want to know the answer to the obvious question: how is Donny's testimony going to devastate Donald?

And, unrelated to the testimony, I've seen a couple of videos that make it appear that Donald is losing his marbles. Among other things, he said something about having beaten Obama in an election. Extrapolating from how bad he looks in these videos to how much worse he's going to look in six months, and in a year suggests to me that the GOP will decide not to nominate him. I'd be very interested in your thoughts, and those of Ms. Jong-Fast.

Was the 2016 election investigated for fraud? Isn’t it curious Trump/Magas beat the drum of “election fraud/the big lie” for the 2020 election... because maybe they pulled it off themselves in 2016? Is their unwillingness to accept 2020 results stemming from what worked in 2016? I mean let’s face it, everyone was shocked Trump won in 2016!!!!

He always projects. Always.

I agree. I’ve always wondered that. It was SO few votes in the swing states.

I should have thought of that. Well done!

Why is Don, Jr's testimony so critical? Because he can confirm Sr is the only one who allowed to make final decisions! All shenanigans are of his own doing and kids just had to go along to get along, correct?

Isn't it more probable that each of them will plead the 5th amendment? Alvin Bragg still has the option to pursue criminal charges for the fraud they have committed. Thanks!

Which kid will do the most damage?

I think Ivanka is the one he loves. Likely the deepest pain (I hope).

Junior

Looking forward to watching! Do you think Jared and Ivanka will ever be questioned on how they benefited monetarily during their time in the WH and post WH?

Expand full comment

What happens if all the kids plead the 5th?

Expand full comment

That's my concern too.

Expand full comment

The real question on my mind is which judge is going to have the balls to put Donald behind bars? He has run afoul of all the gag orders he has had imposed on him. Which one will take the lead and finally hold him accountable?

Any testimony likely worthy of perjury charge?

Will the children have to sell tbeir real estate assets illegally gained by fraudulently obtained mortgages? Will they have to raise actual cash to pay off the NY tax debts?

Also, what happened to the $250M that was raised from donors for Trump legal battles?

And is Kimberly Guilfoyle really as scary as she looks? Cause that girl needs help.

Have a great show! I'll be tuning in from beautiful but chilly Cape Cod.

Expand full comment

She sure does look scary! I don't understand how Newsome got involved with her.

Expand full comment

I believe she had less plastic, silicone and Botox at that time. So, there might have been some vestiges of humanity there. Who knows?

Expand full comment

I've seen her on television, and it's more her personality that I strongly disliked. It's certainly possible that she was a more likeable person when she went out with Newsom, although I wouldn't bet on it.

Have not been here for awhile, see that we all are watching the Donald as we all are. Nothing seem to change with him, from one day to another. Donald has made a mess of things as he always will. His children has turned out to be just like he is. They all are a royal mess, no good to themselves or anyone else. If old Donald Duck loose his home in Florida, what the hell will he do? He already have a cup out for the people to put money into, maybe, he will turn into a bag man on the corner for awhile.

Why do you think Senior didn’t show up at Junior’s testimony- his own son?

Expand full comment

Because Sr would likely throw any of his children under the bus to save his own skin?
