Trump's Legal Tornado! Massive Lawsuits Put 45 In 'Serious Trouble' | The Beat With Ari Melber
Make it a national holiday the indictments drop
Awesome
$75,000 is peanuts. They should be asking for millions.
At least 5 mill each they deserve it tbh
I think they are nickle and diming him to death, Trump is so prideful he might spend more money to fight than pay, also there are so many venues he skipped bills on during his chain of rallies, it might add up.
In Rump’s terms they should ask for “billions and billions and billions.” 😂
@Eddapults Tab The states that he owes money to for his rallies should be allowed to garnish his PAC!
@Sheila Boston eventually they will have to sue in order to see a cent, until then trumps not going to pay
I personally want to see him in jail 😀😀
you spelled electric chair wrong
With a jumpsuit matching her face color.
Even if he doesn’t go to jail, and he probably won’t, it’s absolutely delightful that he’s spending so much money on his defense. He has to be miserable. Ha!
THE BEST NEWS SINCE HE LOST THE ELECTION.
I AM ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT, IN EAGER ANTICIPATION.
HOPE THEY WILL CARRY THE TRIAL LIVE !
I don’t know about you, but I plan to get copies of all the movies they make about his presidency. Personally, I think SNL needs to release a DVD of just the trump sketches.
Old Soy, Hey little boy, making you cry is not a REAL crime!
Put trump in the witness stand, that will close the case. Because he will perjur himself, and that is time in jail.
The police who filed the lawsuit should not settle Trump should go on live television in prime time and state that he lied about everything regarding the election cuz of his ego
That would be the best punishment. Make him say “I lost the election and Joe Biden won. Joe Biden is the correct president.” LoL 😂 trump would spontaneously combust.
@Edison Moore ya the police officer who have filed the lawsuit should only settle and get a written guarantee Trump will do this on a certain day or else push the lawsuit make Trump testify under oath
T*** can’t settle, but if he does … 81M can also go ahead and sue for ’emotional distress’
It can’t be 75,000 I thought it was 75 million?? I think this was a mistake. That wouldn’t even pay legal bills
I would pay admission charge to see tRump in prison. Gov’t could make billions in revenue.
THERE ARE NUMEROUS LAWYERS WITHIN THE GOP & YET NOT ONE THOUGHT TO INFORM TRUMP THAT SLANDER IS NOT PROTECTED BY FREEDOM OF SPEECH ….
KEEP THOSE LAWSUITS COMING PLEASE !!!!
Zoe , Canadian
Even if they did warn Trump do you think he would actually listen to them? He always thinks he is the smartest person in the room.
Maybe because Zervos lodged the lawsuit before inauguration and before donnie had access to all that free lawyerly advice which he probably wouldn’t have listened to anyway!
Karma coming back to bite him in the butt.
Here we go boys
Hope justice will be served for the officers who were attacked and the two who died.
And they have been saying this for…
When was Trump elected?
They are making you nice cell with golden bars so you will feel right at home! Lolololol
Charges are the easy part. I have no doubt he is guilty of all of it and more. But none of this matters unless or until the day he is actually convicted! Never in my life have I heard of someone getting away with so much. And he literally is a nobody. He has not contributed one positive or meaningful thing to this world. Some will argue that, but I stand by my words! Nobody should get away with this much. Absolutely insane!
Too much winning!!
One ‘Orange jumpsuit extra large’ coming up
That’s going to be a tight fit. More think XXXL for the Orange 3
My dream of seeing 45 in a orange jumpsuit is still alive !!!!
The line is very long for lawsuits for Donny. Now single file please, no pushing, hey, I said single file. Don’t make come over there!
