President Donald Trump must pay a $2 million judgment for improperly using his Trump Foundation to further his 2016 presidential campaign, a New York state judge ruled Thursday. The order appears to bring to an end the New York attorney general's lawsuit against the president and three of his adult children over the now-shuttered foundation, which the attorney general alleged had engaged in repeated "self-dealing." Aired on 11/7/19.

Trump Ordered To Pay $2M After Misusing His Charity In ‘Pattern Of Illegality’ | Katy Tur | MSNBC
This is how many years in prison the fake President deserves:
👇🏽
@ihave35cents no yomamma
ToxicTrump Tube 30!
ToxicTrump Tube by fake you mean hillary??
Another day, another Trump scandal and crime. Trump University and the Trump Foundation defrauded 1000’s and should have brought criminal charges and an automatic review of Trump’s taxes.
Seize ALL their assets. Leave them broker than the 10 commandments they break hourly.
ihave35cents pulled his comment in abject shame. hahahaha.
@Enstigator Official I thought they came from the rats running around his properties?
The real world rules don’t apply to Donald J. Trump. Leona Helmsley said it best. “Only the little people pay taxes”. She got 10 years for that little oversight.
In another world, this would be big news.
But for Trump, this is just another day and something his supporters don’t care about. They didn’t care about his fake university he set up as a scam either.
In any other “western nation” this would lead to a leader being arrested.
@Nevyn of OZ 1973 The rich elite are usually immune. One set of rules for them, and another for everyone else. Trump has been lawless his entire life
I miss that alternate timeline.
I bet he can’t cough up $2 million … he’ll need Putin’s help again.
He’s making millions from his presidency. Foreign leaders have bribed him by buying out entire floors of his hotel.
El Loco maybe he can borrow from his kids!
Key words here are ‘pattern of illegality’ !!
I want to know why this wasn’t a criminal case.
He’s a con artist, always has been. Duping morons to vote for him is his biggest con to date.
Amen
@Michael Brown and Rudy needs financial help……more popcorn please
The orange clown had a very long career as a con artist and crook. I saw a documentary this week on the people who are estimated to have lost between billions of dollars after they invested in the Trump venture, he had registered on the stock market. The crook got away with 10s of millions for his services. Trump also defrauded people through is sham university , his fraudulent charity foundation, and by promoting a pyramid scheme on the Apprentice
How about paying the money owed for all his rallies.. many millions.
@Cullen LOOL so YOU are thinking only THE TV is telling you?
Are you sure you want to have this discussion with me? are you equipped with all the data to debate with me on this?
:)))))) oh my GOD! go back to sleep you KIDDO you have no idea who you talking with…do not judge other by the image of your self! but that comment says more about you! then about me!:)
@ALXXX Only when you learn to spell and form sentences pony boy.
The checks are in the mail. Just one more mail fraud charge.
He’s a swamp of a human being
Clinical malignant Narccistic Swamp King🎯
swamp monster
Drain the swamp. Vote Blue in 2020
WHAT !!!! he s a human being ??? but he is orange 😉
wait he illegally used charity money for his campaign and he is not getting arrested because????
@Debbie unknown The “sitting President cannot be indicted” argument is just a 1974 Justice Department opinion.
Because it’s more fake news.
Sheesh, we’ve got a friggin’ crime boss in the Oval. Lock him up, already!!
@Becky Boatwright Hardly, hence my use of the word “already”, meaning it’s well past time. 😝
@Ken Simmons dam SKIPPI it’s past time to get putin jr. Out of the white house
BUT HER EMAILS!!!
J Upiter Right or left if guilty lock them up!
Not enough for someone ripping off a Charity DISGUSTING
@Connor McGregor oh honey he is a charity case. Sad THERE’S no hope for him
This Degenerate would steal a Blind one legged person’s kane in a wheelchair from them. 💩Trump💩
@Carl Bailey ,
Actually, there were different charities involved. There were legit charities giving money through the GOLF COURSE events for example that Trump managed to siphon off to himself. There were fund-raisers where money seems to have been partially spent but much of it disappeared. It’s quite complicated. Trump has been stealing money from many different sources and that’s before you talk about diverting military aircraft to an airport that’s near a golf course he owns to benefit himself.
Not just a charity, this money was supposed to be going to disabled veterans, so Trump actually ripped off disabled Veterans, and it’s not the first time this pig has screwed veterans. https://www.redstate.com/jaycaruso/2016/01/28/trump-veterans/
Misused=Stole Donors’ Money.
What a puke! He makes me sick and is a total embarrassment to our country.
Here is something tRump will never be:
“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children…to leave the world a better place…to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Why don’t we post this everywhere, in its entirety. It might remind people of what real success is and how much we need leadership that reflects these values.
SPRINDYS Best comment of the day. Oh and look, claire bigelow crawled out of that basket Hillary talked about just to reply to your comment. How charming.
Definitely describes Mr. Obama who I hold in high regards. An individual whose character I can share with my children and who can be a role model.
Hurrah! 👍
The Republican’s chosen leader is a corrupt, chronic crook. Must meet all the Repug’s standards to be kept in office by them.
@Mr Lion So basically you’re a sadist, got it.
@Mr Lion So you agree that kids with cancer should not receive the money other people donated because your president was 3 more portraits of himself.
Strange but true and no other truer word have never been spoken.
In any other presidency, this would be a huge scandal.
Remember that tan suit being Obama’s biggest scandal 😂
@Rene Chavez no they don’t
It is. Try and not gauge a scandal by a for profit (s)
@Rene Chavez And you do?
Anyone else caught stealing money from vets and kids with cancer would be in jail
@Pat Peacock I have learned it is not good to interpret things in the worst possible light, especially if that interpretation makes no sense. If TRUMP had stolen 17 million dollars, the news item would say that. He raised 19 million for Veterans, and it went to veterans. The other 2 million was separate set of transactions. There was a time when I was like you, looking for ways to twist and malign. It’s not worth it neighbor. Trump’s biggest problem was simply in letting his campaign participate in directing the TRUMP foundation. A little re-alignment will fix that fine. I’m glad the courts stepped in. Glad he learned his lesson. He stole from no one.
@marbanak you said trump foundation took in 19 million but only paid out 2 million that’s mean trump spent 17 million on his campaign it’s simple math 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@marbanak ingot a 4th grade teacher that can teach you simple math
@Pat Peacock I have clarified that for you nicely. Your childish reply and poorly spelled remarks are verification that you are a foreign troll bot, along with those who participated in this thread. Your country stinks.
@marbanak hey stupid you the one that said trump took in 19 million and only gave out 2 million that’s seventeen million trump stole please try taking a 4th grade math class.
I doubt he will pay anything, if he doesn’t pay his taxes what makes you think he will pay this fine?
Court supervision and the right to seize real property or bank accounts?
@Wicked Guppy That may work but we’re talking about Donald J. Trump, a man that still hasn’t paid his hair dresser.
@Markus Patients Hair dressers can only access small claims court. The courts can seize real assets. Remember Manafort?
Republicans : We will support our dishonest corrupt bully Pres.
trump university was fraudulent as well, he’s doing the same with the white house.
