NY AG's order makes Trump family control of any presidential library in NY impossible.

Being discussed now on 11th Hour.

The legal order around the dissolution of the Trump Foundation holds that Trump and his three eldest spawn are banned from acting in any charitable organization in New York. That includes any presidential library they may have thought about.

Awwwwww. Poooooooor Put-upon Grifters.

1. I believe 'neither/nor' is changing the meaning in your OP ;)

Either that, or 'banned' ...

Just sayin'.

Anyways, I doubt anyone in NY State wants his eventual 'Library' to be located in their State ...

It's classic he'll be disallowed from even having one in a certain State though, esp. since it's his 'Home State' ...

He'll probably pawn it off on NJ in the end ... if there ever even is one.

6. I'm sorry, but I have no idea what your post means.

???

[mr_lebowski]

8. Read your post again, slowly ...

2nd paragraph doesn't quite say what you meant, I think

2. Presidential library? LOL.

I know all presidents have them (or had them), but what would be in Trump's, besides magazines with his picture on them, remaindered copies of The Art of the Deal, and court files?

4. NDA's?

[SeattleVet]

18. Coloring books?

Jigsaw puzzles? (tRump was SOOOO proud! The box said "3-6 years", but he finished it in only 5 weeks!)

20. Presidential libraries are libraries in name only

In reality, a "presidential library" is a presidential museum. Trump should have one, but the contents of it should be selected by Democrats. That way it'll be fun...it'll be a cross between Graceland and a true-crime museum.

23. gold shitter, tweeter, Mein Kampf, baby donald blimp

[shanny]

28. a book of Hitler's speeches

a gift from Ray Cohn

3. Please make it happen.

But they would find a loophole around it. Think Mar a Lago.

[Stinky The Clown]

5. That was my first thought

Marjorie Merryweather Post must be rolling in her grave. This is certainly not how she intended the property to be used.

29. Silver lining there is that it will be underwater soon

[LiberalFighter]

31. Maybe that possibility is worth more than just a silver lining. :)

[MuseRider]

7. A waste treatment facility. n/t

[EffieBlack]

9. He doesn't need a library. Every aspect of his presidency is stored in his Twitter account

[sfwriter]

10. It will be Maralago...

And they’ll charge to rent it out.

[DURHAM D]

11. He can put his phone in a plastic bag

in a refrigerator at Mar A Lago. That is all he will archive.

12. Your post needs editing

It should read:

“neither Trump nor his three eldest spawn are allowed.”

Or it could say

“Trump and his three eldest spawn are banned.”

[agingdem]

27. "odious spawn"

banned from sitting on any charitable boards in New York...don't think the odious spawn understand the word "pariah"...but they will

[catbyte]

14. This is the only "Presidential Library" they will need.

15. The closest he'll come to a Presidential library

will be copies of his ghost written books for sale in the giftshops of his properties. A collection of his Tweets hardly qualifies as Presidential papers, and there would be nothing to display other than perhaps his cell phone and golf clubs. Replicas of Melania's "I don't care" jacket would also be a natural for the giftshops, along with bedazzler "Be Best" t-shirts. Even if he's behind bars, Trump will, no doubt, still be actively trying to fleece the public.

16. For the library, maybe they will finally welcome Tiffany to the fold.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

17. It will be expensive to fly to Moscow to visit the Trump Library

Because that is where it just might be built in his Trump Tower Moscow.

[Buns_of_Fire]

19. Or Riyadh.

Where visitors can fondle a replica of the Glowing Orb that was the source of so much of Rump's inspiration.

$5 a grope. No refunds.

21. I love this

[no_hypocrisy]

22. Being banned from serving on ANY charitable board is going to bother Ivanka

more than the rest of them. It's not the money with her. It's the status and visibility.

It's also the social and societal thing, esp. in New York City. You're "High Society" when you serve on a board. It's more or less like serving on a Board of Directors in a corporation. You get invited to galas, parties and people who don't like you are forced to be nice to you.

Now, Ivanka has plans to return to NYC and resume her social-climbing life post-White House. If she's banned from serving for seven or more years on any charitable board, that has an impact that she will strongly feel.

Her worthless brothers, not so much.

24. Wouldn't it be in Florida?

[Vinca]

25. He wouldnl't want to put a presidential casino (libary rofl) there anyway.

[samnsara]

26. i feel like im in hi school english class lol...we are all friends here we can mentally edit..

[Buckeyeblue]

30. You assume 45's library (hard to type without laughing) will be non-profit

I suspect it will be a for-profit amusement park, filled with ups, downs, turns and twists.
