NY AG James @NewYorkStateAG 3hPresident Trumps threats to deny funds to New York are nothing more than a desperate, last ditch election strategy by a president too weak to lead us through the crises our nation is facing.
President Trump, prepare for legal action if you threaten New York again.

(64,956 posts)When he's no longer POTUS, he's useless to them.
Part of the attraction is the strongman person a. Out of power, he's just an old man they used to listen to.
I predict he'll be less popular when he's out of office.
And to the monied interest? He'll be last week's garbage!

(3,401 posts)Staffers, handlers, cabinet members, congressmen ex wives, children and possibly foreign leaders will tell their story. Then at the same time there will be legal action for all of the laws he has broken, lawsuits by those he has harmed, and confessions by co conspirators to save their own necks.
Trump will continue to be front page news for several more years.

(2,008 posts)He'll no longer be of use to the Mercers (or whoever the %^& is still bankrolling his campaign) and their ilk.
But for a certain subset of his followers, the rally-road-trippers, made-in-China hat buyers, "Grab here" shirt wearers, he'll still be the one who "gets" them, who expresses the hateful thoughts most don't dare say out loud. Their id. The lower-status ones may still be lining up to be bilked by him...

(19,190 posts)since his 11th birthday. Trump is a one-man jobs program for Attorneys. I have no idea of how many Attorneys Trump employs, but my guess would be around 500, considering the sheer volume of litigious actions of which I'm aware.
GopherGal
(2,008 posts)Too often he uses the ones the American people are paying for and/or his campaign funds pay for. And, of course, unpaid bills don't seem to trouble the Grotesque Orange Pustule too much...

He's clearly trying to play to his base by threatening NY.
Knee-cap the son-of-a-bitch! (And no disrespect intended to male canines or their mothers; not to mention pandas).
