1. What do you expect from one that has had SIX BANKRUPTCIES?

[PatSeg]

2. And meanwhile

I think he has been getting ripped off right and left by people on his campaign. How do you blow almost a billion dollars and have next to nothing to show for it? Rather fitting, being Trump has been ripping people off his entire life.

[GopherGal]

5. They learned from the best

Huge amounts are being funneled to the crime family and high-level staffers via self-deals (see Parscale's homes/cars). Isn't that how the Fanta Menace bled money out of his businesses to enrich himself before bankrupting the businesses and leaving creditors and shareholders holding the bag?

[Illumination]

7. Exactly. Like PatSeg's point. Well, he's getting the a** kicking he deserves now! Hope

he's suffering like he's done to so many others! He's more concerned with $ than the American
people! Hope there's many more a** kickings to come!...

[PatSeg]

11. I'm anticipating an avalanche

of payback in the coming months.

[Illumination]

12. Just LOVE the thought of that! Karma just might be a real thing...

[PatSeg]

14. Oh yes

Sometimes Karma may be delayed, but that just increases the payback.

[Illumination]

15. Well PatSeg, what also increases the payback is damned STUPIDITY!!!!!!!!!

[PatSeg]

20. Yeah, that too!

We may be enjoying this too much..................nah, now that I think about it, we've earned this.

[PatSeg]

10. Exactly

And he draws to him people of the same moral fiber. There really are consequences to our choices and actions, though it is astounding that it took so long for Trump to experience what he's dished out for decades.

[Illumination]

6. Oh dear PatSeg! Guess crime has no bounds! Remember the movie "Ghost Busters"? "Who

ya gonna call"??? He's S.O.L.!...Would bet the people with his campaign have ZERO respect for him. What does he expect RE: almost a billion down the drain? He only hires CRIMINALS!... :

[PatSeg]

13. The man lives in a bubble with his blinders on

It never dawns on him that what he does to other people could ever be done to him. That would only happen to "suckers and losers". Welcome to the Losers Club Pal, they've been waiting for you!

[Illumination]

18. Good one! As Mary Trump put it, she said he's been "institutionalized" all his life. Would like to

suggest the perfect institution for him. It's @ the border. We could throw him in the dog kennel there. Maybe they would want to do some experimenting on him! They could drill down into that thick skull of his to see if there's anything in there...

[PatSeg]

21. Yep, his future isn't looking too bright!

[Illumination]

22. Great pun! Time for lunch here in Colorado. This was fun!

[PatSeg]

26. Yes it was!

[klook]

23. Just cut him loose in the desert of northern Mexico

He can wander around in the heat until he finds some empty water bottles that have been slashed open, and then — as he lies in the hot dirt staring into the sun without eye protection one last time — die of a scorpion attack.

That’s the gentlest demise I can recommend for Trump.

[Fritz Walter]

3. What's not included is the money they've stiffed from cities

Aside from the cities who have actually hosted his rallies and were never reimbursed for security and other unbudgeted expenses, there's the RNC debaucle.

Consider these headlines:

RNC preparations cost city of Jacksonville $154,000
President Trump canceled Republican Convention in city due to covoronavirus surge
Source: News4Jax -- Sept. 3

Auditors determined that more than $153,602.68 was spent on planning the event -- with 45% that on overtime pay to Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office employees and another 45% to an outside firm hired to help secure federal grants. The remaining 10% of the money went to overtime to Jacksonville Fire-Rescue and other city employees.

JEA spent $238,000 to prepare for Republican National Convention. It likely won't be reimbursed.
That brings the total of RNC-related costs to $392,000.
Source: First Coast News -- September 9

The city-owned utility's expenses continue to undermine statements made by Mayor Lenny Curry and his aides, who aggressively courted the event and said local taxpayers wouldn't pay anything to host it. City Council auditors last week revealed the city could likely absorb $154,000 in overtime pay and consulting fees related to the event.

You can probably guess Lemon Curry's political affiliation.


Grifters gotta grift!

[MontanaMama]

4. His grifting campaign still owes my city

almost $12,000 from his MAGAt rally 3 years ago. I know that’s small potatoes compared to his other thefts...but still. We have to make that up as taxpayers. Fuck that guy.

[Pepsidog]

9. I wish these facts were highlighted in the ad, it would make a lot more sense.

[Pepsidog]

8. I love LP ads but this one I don't get.

[klook]

24. I see it as psy ops designed to get at his financial insecurity.

To Trump money and prestige are everything. To say he is fast losing both is to say he is really nothing.

Like many of the Lincoln Project ads, this is intended primarily for an audience of one.

[Pepsidog]

25. Thanks. Makes sense.

[GopherGal]

27. And maybe a little to the toxic masculinity

Agree 100% on the "audience of one"
The poke at "what's he gotten for all that money?" makes him look foolish both as being "bested" by Parscale et al and failing to get his poll numbers up. That's not "being a killer" as Mary repeatedly tells us Fred raised him to be.

[klook]

28. Yes -- poster child for toxic faux masculinity. (nt)

[dchill]

16. "...sunk into the act of raising the money."

He ran a con on himself. And fell for it.

[ffr]

17. It's more about the fact that you cannot polish a turd

It's still a stinky pile of bio-hazard, sponsored by our enemies, who disrespects our service men and women, is a traitor a racists a bigot a monster, and the list goes on. Polish it all you want, he's still a stinking pile of shit.

[Illumination]

19. Love your comments & artwork! The truth of the matter is that America deserves better!

Go Joe & Kamala!
