      For legal reasons, it would not surprise me if Trump opens or buys casinos where he can drag just enough profit away from the other criminals in the area. Does this by running them at a loss, setting the stage for a future bankruptcy. Offsets that by not paying vendors. (Vendors might have connections to other criminals.)

      Other criminals are getting pissed. They just want him to go away. But they can’t just kill him, because he’s Donald Fucking Trump. So they pay him to go away. Bankruptcy ensues.

      Of course, the more he pulls this kind of stunt, the more other criminals want him dead. Trump has to keep increasing his notoriety in order to make him a harder target. Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, Apprentice … Presidency.

      Trump isn’t trying to keep himself out of prison. He’s trying to avoid being murdered.

      (Yes, I know that is an imaginary and ridiculous story that I made up out of whole cloth. I do not literally believe this is true. Still … it would not surprise me if.)

        I wish he was capable of masterminding a plan like that. That would at least be a decent movie.

        Instead we get Stupid Watergate and Imitation Hitler.

          Next thing you know, Musk will be in charge of Space Force and JD Vance will parachute into the English countryside.
