Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

You know when you finally get a job that pays a decent amount, and things that used to be big fucking deals start becoming just another inconvenience? Or you start paying for things that you thought were special occasions now, but now conveniences?
Well I'm a millennial so me neither, but that's basically the situation with Donald trump, he doesn't care about having to pay the court anything, because as far as he's concerned he can wipe his ass with $10,000 which was what the last fine he received was billed for.
The Russian agent who should never have been a presidential candidate, who should have had the cuff slapped on him the second he "joked" about Russia being rewarded for dirt on the Democrats period will only care about the punishment it's jail, and I mean actual jail. Not some country club where he can get massages and fancy drinks either. I mean the same kind of jail that I would go to if I walked into best buy, picked up a fancy 4K television, and walked out the door as if I was unaware that security cameras existed.
See, that's the thing. He tried to overthrow the government and sell state secrets, not rob a liquor store. It should be the same kind of PRISON CELL as murderers and terrorists, not a jail cell for petty criminals.
Look I was asking for something unrealistic, you here are asking for the impossible.
He literally values his money over his freedom. You're right those monetary fines are almost nothing compared to the money he has, but the fact he has to pay literally anything at all has the emotional impact of a scrotum punch to the Ol' Orange Caligula.
Smells like copium
He doesn’t have the money he led everyone to believe he has. At this point, I don’t think anyone knows if he’s even considered wealthy or not.
I don't think that really matters at this point, the whole, owe the bank $10,000, and the bank owns you, owe them a million and you own the bank. He is a former president with a lot of Fanatics ready to write in a blank check.
