1. That's some small comfort.

[Volaris]

38. Possibly..wouldn't it depend on what the presidency ends up being worth to him and the kids?

[dchill]

60. Plenty more guilty pleas coming.

I just hope the presidency doesn't end up worthless.

[leftieNanner]

2. You're goin' down in FLAMES, Donnie Boy!

You will be forced to live in abject poverty for the rest of your life. We're gonna reposess the tacky gold plated stuff and send you to bed (lumpy, stinky mattress) without any dinner. HA! So there!

And take your creepy kids with you.

[PJMcK]

5. And no ice cream, either (n/t)

[leftieNanner]

6. No scoops

No cake

[47of74]

35. The bed will be precast with a joke of a mattress

[GopherGal]

59. Not so fast...

send you to bed (lumpy, stinky mattress) without any dinner. HA! So there!

And take your creepy kids with you.

Don't entice him with the idea of being sent to bed with Ivanka.

Make her bed down with the Kushner syndicate she married into. Donnie can share with Bannon.

[leftieNanner]

65. HAHAHAHAHA

That is so good - so "eeeeeeew" - but good!

[Iliyah]

3. Well that explains "nearly".

[Raven]

4. Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy! n/t

[Buns_of_Fire]

7. Take heart, comrade. There's always fertilizer.

[FSogol]

8. LOL, there is still the Abestos Market!

[mysteryowl]

12. Ha!

Apparently, there is trump brand asbestos. How awful.

[lagomorph777]

22. How appropriate!

Donald and Mesothelioma will live on Russian toxins for their retirement.

[mysteryowl]

26. Here it is...

[lagomorph777]

27. Sorry - can't see whatever it is on my Victorian-era browser

(worthless IT-department steampunk crap)

So...what's the content?

[mysteryowl]

28. Have you tried using a TOR browser?

You can search the internet using various IP addresses and the country restrictions can be bypassed.

www.torproject.org

[lagomorph777]

30. Sure, IT would love that.

Didn't realize your content was secret.

[mysteryowl]

31. Its a clip showing packages of Asbetos, made in Russia! with Trumps face stamped on it

It is an ink stamp with trumps face and the endorsement written in Russian. The clip is a media organization that fact checked it. They found on the company's website verifying it was truth. Well, that could very well have been made-up. It is a Russian product.

[lagomorph777]

32. Oh, this?

Thanks!

[Farmer-Rick]

33. So the Trump name brand is still successful in Russia

Figures

[mysteryowl]

42. Yes. This is it.

For all we know the company made this up. But, we don't know for sure.

[progressoid]

47. Sorry, I don't mean to nitpick,

but the first lady's name is Melanoma, not Mesothelioma.

[lagomorph777]

62. I'd been using "Melanoma" but the opportunity was too tempting.

[whopis01]

40. Not just a Trump brand asbestos - A Russian company with Trump brand asbestos

You couldn't write this shit.

[Totally Tunsie]

9. Seeking the presidency was probably the worst decision tRumphole has ever made.

He really had no idea what would be required of him nor what the rules/regulations/constrictions of the position would be. Typically of one who learns only from massive amounts of TV watching, he gives the impression he expected it to be all ceremonial, entailing posing for the camera, holding cursory meetings with staff and leaders, and boldly signing his name on proclamations. It must have been a surprise to him that actual work was involved. It was so easy for him to criticize from the outside, not so easy to accomplish on the inside.

Deservedly so, tRump will find his former empire exposed and shattered by his ego and greed in aspiring for a job for which he was absolutely not qualified nor prepared. All those secrets, those dirty business dealings, the thievery and deceptions are, like the proverbial onion, being peeled away layer by layer. Couldn't happen to a more appropriate person. He and his entire family will be taken down.

[Dave Starsky]

37. He was destitute and way, WAY overextended on Russian credit.

He ran because his Russian creditors and Vladimir Putin offered him no other choice.

He has the largest ego in world history, but it wasn't enough to propel him to do this job. He would have been perfectly happy running his usual scams outside of public scrutiny. He could have started "Trump TV" and gone on to sucker millions more. His kids could have inherited his medicine show and perpetuated his scams for generations.

But he ended up owing too much money (and favors) to the wrong people. And that's sad. SAD.

[FakeNoose]

44. Trump TV was going to be his next venture after he lost the presidency

He already had it in the planning stage with Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes, and probably a few other backers. Trump truly had no clue what to do, once he "won" the election. Also, he probably had no plan to ever pay back the money he owes the Russians either.

[mopinko]

64. if he is impeached, will his debt have to be paid back in cash?

if he cant get through 4 years of opening the door to his criminal cronies, does that mean he still owes them?

[OMGWTF]

55. Like that other worthless POS, Rick Perry of Texassistan

thought being Secretary of Energy meant he schmoozed with oil execs all day long.

[Ohiogal]

10. I personally volunteer

to teach Melanie how to shop at the Dollar Store!

[ProfessorGAC]

11. The Horror!

Can you imagine?!?!?!?!?

She wouldn't even go in there to buy batteries.

[Doreen]

13. You do that and I will teach her how to navigate the food bank at

the Salvation Army.

[Polly Hennessey]

19. I personally agree to assist you.

[crazycatlady]

67. So can I teach Princess Ivanka?

Start with the clearance racks, where her merchandise is.

[Buns_of_Fire]

14. "The Donald" brand ipecac has possibilities.

Perhaps Fleet could be persuaded to name a new line of disposable enemas after him, too.

[lagomorph777]

23. Yeah, but with friends like Trump, who needs enemas?

[sdfernando]

34. LOL....DUzy! /nt

[louis-t]

56. Hmm, I can see him doing catheter commercials.

[smirkymonkey]

15. Ha, ha, ha!

I am so happy to hear this! One of my wishes was that he would trash his brand worldwide and it looks like that is happening. Just like Ivanka's brand went from high-end to bargain-basement stores, the Trump name will be associated with cheap, trashy, overpriced merchandise from now on. I hope all his properties go belly-up as well.

When you see his crowds of deplorables, doesn't look like many of them are in the market for expensive golf clubs and hotels.

[lagomorph777]

24. Ivanka's brand is now only in thrift shops (bargain basements are afraid to hurt their reputations).

[Initech]

16. Womp womp!

[rickford66]

17. Trademark this before someone else does.

[Initech]

20. On it!

[dawnie51]

18. Dump is the kiss of death.....

everything he ever lent his name to bit the dust. He never produced any goods, just sold his name to those who did make goods, and they usually went belly up pretty quickly. He owns very little, just the name. Which is slapped on buildings and books and various pieces of crap. And now even that is worthless. He has made it so.

[ggmac0427]

21. Donald, your name is anathema

I envision a future where the results of his tenure are so loathed, his name is so accursed, nobody will want to be associated with it. Not even as a family name, much like the name Hitler today. Do you know anyone with the last name Hitler? Or any business with the name Hitler? I fully expect this to be history's judgement on this criminal.

[maddiemom]

39. Sad for anyone for whom Hitler was their family name at birth,

[hatrack]

48. True story - Patrick Hitler, Adolf's nephew served in the US Navy in WWII

Boy, I'll bet he had fun in basic training!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Stuart-Houston

[ggmac0427]

57. Interesting

Thanks for the link. It's interesting he changed his name AND the Hitler bloodline was ended at the next generation.

[maddiemom]

61. Interesting . Checking it out, I found quite a bit on line. Never knew that before.

[erronis]

43. So, what can we call "trump" in bridge? Perhaps "ReallyBest" or "ABT".

[MountCleaners]

68. Well there was this clothing store in India

?uuid=ubxFJPdZEeGLk8T0qxyNEw

[tonyt53]

25. In honor of trump, I shall start calling my bowel movements "trump dumps". Now there are 3.

But I'm not paying. I'll just declare bankruptcy and tell him to go to the sewage treatment plant to recover the goods.

[deurbano]

45. Good one(s)!

[Elwood P Dowd]

46. Excuse me while I go to the bathroom and "take a Trump".

[Moostache]

53. To channel my inner-George Carlin...

Why would anyone need to "take" a Trump?
Not me, I am going to the bathroom to LEAVE a Trump!

LOL!

Same routine he did when talking about planes...

"I'm getting ON the plane...."
"Really? Well, fuck you! Not me! I'm getting IN that thing!"


I really miss him...its been years and no one is close to filling that void.

[proglib217]

63. I miss him, too

Spot on social commentary while delivering side splitting comedy laughs. He was one of a kind.

Dave was also special. I miss him, too.

I have no comedians left to turn to when I'm in need of a good laugh. I loved The Colbert Report, but his late night show just isn't close to being as funny. There are occasional bright spots, but it's not must-see TV.

[democratisphere]

29. The empire (*****cough***** *****cough*****) is crumbling.

[D_Master81]

36. Once he's done being President

He’ll make money hand over fist preaching to the brain dead base. We’re easily talking 6 figures a speech.

[keithbvadu2]

41. Are his golf clubs still bringing in high dollar memberships?

Are his golf clubs still bringing in high dollar memberships?

For access.

When he leaves office, the price will surely plummet.

The Wash DC hotel will probably lose a lot of business.

[Kablooie]

49. But how many buildings still have his name?

This is his primary means of legal income. (There are probably several other illegal means too but we don't know details about those -- yet.)

He gets around 18% equity in those buildings.

[LiberalLovinLug]

50. Well, the new Trump tower apartment building was just completed during his first year

here in my city.
Including the raising up of the giant golden TRUMP letters. And its not going anywhere soon. He has an iron clad agreement with many many buildings using his name. They cannot legally remove his name without actually selling the building. Which defeats the purpose of keeping ownership without it. Even any new owner will have legal hurdles if they want his disgusting name off of the building. His name will be there, and many other buildings, for perpetuity.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

51. Trump will always have a fall-back career as....

an evangelical preacher. Just think of all the possibilities....

* a mega church with a huge "T" instead of a cross, and a golf course out back,
* limitless possibilities for partnerships with Joel Osteen, Jim Bakker, and others and speaking engagements around the globe.
* a branch church opening near you soon, folks.

And, all those warehouses full of MAGA caps will not be wasted - just change it to "Make America Godly Again"......

[Mc Mike]

52. Nonsense. People will pay big money NOT to see or hear it.

NOT to be associated to it. You can monetize that negative value through extortion.

Pay us or we'll tie the word 'tRump' to your company, or building.

[iluvtennis]

54. Excellent...dropping to negative would be awesome

[FreepFryer]

58. Next, we depopulate the planet of Trumpy Bears. There's gotta be a way... a taxidermonomic virus? :)

[ooky]

66. Little wonder. It's widely recognized as

the most evil name on the planet today.
