Norm Eisen (Brookings, former Obama ethics czar) says new DT lawsuit reveals STUNNING FRAUD.

I've been waiting for some attorneys to weigh in. Here's Eisen.




Remember when Trump had to pay all that $ in the Trump U. case? Well, this RICO action against him & fam makes that seem like peanuts. It reveals stunning frauds. Kudos @kaplanrobbie @JoshuaMatz8, Andrew Celli & their colleagues at @KaplanHecker @ecba_llp


And LAURENCE TRIBE has this to say:




Finally the RICO case big enough to take down the First Family of Crime! Watch this space.

THE LAWSUIT ITSELF:

by the King of Cons, Donald J. Trump. All of those "little people" in his cult believe this p.o.s. is looking out for them. He'd steal the stink off of their shit if he could get away with it.

I haven't looked through all the particulars of the case, but a cursory glance seems to indicate..........(gasp!) lies and deceit on the part of Trump. Shocking, isn't it. I hope they hang the Trump Crime Family from the tallest tree in Washington.

He is so reliably fraudulent in everything he does I’d be stunned to learn he’d done something on the up and up.

Can you imagine if all his shit suddenly caught up with him? It would be a glorious comeuppance.

There were 3 major cases, one under racketeering laws, and apparently all 3 settled for $25 million.

And Eisen says that was peanuts compared to this?!

Btw, have to agree with the below. When someone here asked for one virtue I was unable to think of a thing, but I am often grateful for Trump's incompetence and fearful of who they will try to have follow him.
