Surely not, not honest Donald?
President Donald Trump ordered to pay $US2 million over misusing charity funds

[Bogan]

Trump is not going to be impeached, and he is going to win in 2020.

Get over it, Brian.

[Nom De Plume]

"A New York state judge has ordered US President Donald Trump to pay $US2 million ($2.9 million) for misusing his namesake charitable foundation, resulting in funds being used to advance his 2016 presidential campaign."

Trump's legal team will keep this cycling through the legal system for years.

They may but it is just another nail in his coffin, Nom.

I wonder what his supporters think of him now? Afterall, this was always what he accused Hillary doing with the Clinton Foundation - all without proof of course.

I am sure that their silence will be deafening.

Wow, a Democrat judge from New York ruled against Trump ... imagine that!

Next I'll be hearing that Nancy Pelosi said something uncomplimentary about the president.

If you want to know what's really been going on in American politics, wait and see what happens when Attorney General Barr and U.S. Attorney Durham finish their investigation into the origins of the Russian collusion hoax. They're even interviewing Australian officials to get to the bottom of the failed coup, which has international tentacles.

We also have an Inspector General's report supposedly coming out soon.

Between the Barr and the I.G., we should have a better idea of what Democrats plot to do when they don't win presidential elections and retain what they crave most: power.

So, complete denial of any wrong doing, hey, 4E? I suppose this all "fake news"? Tsk, tsk, all written off 'cause the judge is a Democrat, right? Gee, I knew politicisation was bad but I never realise it had corrupted the judicial system so badly in the US. In reality, what we have is a judge passing a judgement detrimental to el Presidente' Trump and despite your attempts to write it off as being of no consequence, it is just another nail in his coffin.

OMG, T4E is saying, that under Trump's administration Justice has been waylaid! Surely that is reason enough to want him removed from office?

The case most likely isn't over yet. I suspect that Trump and his attorneys will appeal, so there's no reason to "admit" wrongdoing when the ruling could be reversed as others have been.

Check back with me when there's a final outcome.

Gee, I knew politicisation was bad but I never realise it had corrupted the judicial system so badly in the US.

Well, it is. Obama-appointed activist judges routinely rule against Trump executive orders, etc., only to be reversed by an Appeals Court or by the Supreme Court.

For instance, this decision about asylum: https://www.politico.com/story/2019/09/ ... on-1727124

You obviously haven't been paying attention.

There have been many court judgments that were detrimental to Trump, but quite a few of them have been reversed. That's why I, unlike you, don't get all worked up about one judge making one decision against Trump.

Really, if this decision is your notion of Trump's political coffin, I'd suggest you don't hold your breath waiting for the burial.

Nope, because Trump doesn't control the judicial branch of government. He's in charge of the executive branch.

Thus, he's not responsible for the way left-wing activist judges skew justice in America.
