What Taxpayer's money?
Trump used money he got from loans from Banks, not Taxpayer funds.
Trump then paid back the loans (with all the interest). The Banks were happy, Trump was happy, the only people NOT happy are those with an axe to grind with Trump.
The only Taxpayer money that was spent during all this was on the court case against Trump.

You promised me the facts would be the same on MSNBC, they weren't. I'm very sad.

But in the end, a "trial" was held, Trump is guilty, Trump must pay about 400 billion dollars, and he doesn't think it's fair.

I'm not sure about NY but when all is said and done because of his rhetoric has cost us many monies.
Probably upward of half a billion would be my guess.
Maybe don't defraud people going forward.

It was a coarse analogy certainly, but the idea is there. He hit that Republican Debate show and made sweeping promises. He had a targeted audience, or consumer group to play to and he did it. He's a salesman. His pitch was to drain the swamp and he pitched it to people who already had a deep hatred for the swamp. People who already knew how swampy it is. He made promises that they should have known he could not keep. Truth is I cheered for him for a few short weeks until I realized it was all show, all glitz,, all bull. He is, before all and after all, a salesman and any of us who have not figured out the universal truth about salesmen by now are going to remain victims of the very swamp he promised to drain.
I think it's past the point of "being the bigger man", and in trench warfare, you will get dirty, and you have no choice but to fight in the trenches. Bring the war to them. Unity can come later, it doesn't seem to be a priority now.

If true. then good. Why serve a city that doesn't respect the constitution? They want to use state power to do BS against the currently most popular candidate and challenging candidate for presidency, then why not use personal discretion to deny them service from other states?
If NYC wants to declare war on the working class of the nation, all is fair.
