Thank you for walking us through this maze. It still baffles me why he is always getting such special treatment. All I’ll say is thank goodness for KARMA!

As his lawyers argue, in another court for the Contempt/Gag hearing, that there are two systems of justice at play...yes, one could say that, just not the way he inferred.

Why is the legal system allowing him to get away with this bs? Special treatment again!

This is one of those times that having been a risk management manager in 1989 and 1990 for service merchandise comes in handy. That was before computers y’all. Pretty much and I drafted some fancy ass charts to show what our holdings were in reinsurance somewhere in the Cayman Islands. Woo hoo my company was doing illegal things next-door to the legal department. I was a paralegal in training at the time, basically doing the boring work of making sure all of the leases were intact appropriately documented because we were about to lose our asses from such chaotic dealings.

Main stream media avoids covering the important part of this story and that is the actual accountability part, the Trump really has failed to post a legitimate bond part. It's still not paid, secured, bonded whatever.. and the court system and the media have allowed this part of the story to slip into the night. Trump with mainstream media help is allowed indefinite time to "pay", "post" his bond. Is the AG in on it? Are they just happy with it's conviction and looking tough. What a friggin farce, both the media and this particular shady arrangement. And no one else other than Tristan has actually covered and explained it the way it should be.

The real story here doesn't seem to be about Trump but the system that allows Trump to continue to operate. The media seems to be a central player in that story, so we have to do our best to deduce wtf is going on. Follow the money and power.

Tris, you prove your worth to me daily. I couldn’t comprehend how this all worked. And works FOR this convicted person. Not for we the people.

The truest part of this is that Trump is completely unable to follow rules, like the Constitution. He’s always looking for a shortcut, an edge, a way to control the narrative. And Trump gets away with it, over and over, because, even before he was President, nobody wanted to take him on. Always the mafia boss, always the threat of violence and retribution.
