If Trump Org collapses, Trump still receives a president's pension for life.

Which is $220,000 a year.
I'm sure he also has a huge rainy day fund stashed in offshore accounts he can pull from.
So he would lose a source of income but would still be able to keep his excessive lifestyle for the most part.

I sure hope this thing grows to indict Trump personally.
If not it will be an inconvenience for him but not too serious a blow.

If he were to lose Trump Tower in NYC, Mar-a-Lago, the golf courses in Scotland, and the golf course with the fake-ass Civil War monument/plaque then I'd be so happy I would not give a shit about the presidential pension.

It won't happen. In my heart of hearts, he committed crimes worthy of prison.

When will our country imprison leaders who break the law?????

paying rent in a building that was not gilded and super clean. One that he did not know was safe or without a rodent here or there. Not going to happen but hell, how about a place he had to go down 10 floors with a laundry basket and sit there to make sure nobody took it or put a container of ink in it just to screw with him. I cannot even imagine the jerk having to ride in a elevator with someone else he did not know. So many experiences we have all had and live with daily that he has never had to think about. Personally, many of those things make life better. I always enjoyed a laundra-mat when I was younger and had to scrape together the quarters for the machines.

Running out of clean socks? He would rant and scream and then have to figure out what to do.

None of this will ever happen and he will never even have to think about these mundane facts of all of our lives but wouldn't it be fun to watch him have to deal for 6 months?
