THREAD: one of the best self-owns I've ever seen explained. The NYAG goes to court tomorrow to attempt to COMPEL donald trump, ivanka, and junior to be deposed. She will argue that their depositions are necessary. Donald HIMSELF has helped her with that argument. Here's how: 1/

Donald's lawyers say he has no knowledge of branding numbers in response to the NYAG petition that shows donald said he didn't include "brand value" in his financial condition statements, but then marked up his assets by 30% for brand value anyhow. 3/

So she says "you lied about branding numbers, so you need to come tell us about it", donald's lawyer says "He don't know what you're talking about. He has no knowledge of that." BUT THEN IN A PUBLIC STATEMENT YESTERDAY, donald says I LOVE BRANDING NUMBERS 😅 4/

So TODAY, a day before she goes to court to convince a judge she needs donald's deposition, she files his own public statement in which he CONTRADICTS his OWN LAWYERS as further evidence his deposition is necessary to clear his own bullshit up. BUT THERE'S MORE! 4/

In donald's public statement yesterday, donald HIMSELF repeated those exact numbers his lawyers told the court he had no knowledge of. LOL. Donald's own public statement from yesterday has now bolstered the NYAG's argument for his deposition. 6/

"It's not unusual for parties to disagree about the facts. But it's truly rare for a party to publicly disagree with HIS OWN ATTORNEYS in a signed pleading - let alone ONE DAY after the pleading was filed...His other improper denials should be treated as ADMISSIONS." END

Didn't the Stable Genius also just say that the building valuations in his financial statements are accurate and then add that actually they are worth a lot more? So they are both accurate and not accurate.

I fell off of the sofa laughing at this "#TFG, in his statement Tuesday, said his net worth is approximately $8 to $9 billion based on the value of his brand and current enthusiasm and transactions which have or will take place. The mutha is worth $1.89 in real world wealth.

NEW YORK (AP) Questions about Donald Trumps business practices are piling up. Whether the former president is forced to answer any of them under oath could be decided in a matter of days.
New Yorks attorney general will go to court Thursday seeking to enforce a subpoena for Trumps testimony in a civil investigation she says uncovered evidence his company used fraudulent or misleading valuations of golf clubs, skyscrapers and other properties to get loans and tax benefits.
The hearing, before state Judge Arthur Engoron in Manhattan, is the next step in a legal battle that has unfolded in court papers over the last few weeks, including the revelation Monday that Trumps longtime accounting firm recently dumped him after warning that financial statements it prepared could not be trusted.................

It seems to break the forum software's attempt tp embed the tweet, and ends up repeating half of the tweet as text, between every embed.

You buy donald trump for what he is really worth, and sell him for what he thinks he is worth.
Buy him for $1.89, selling for $8 billion.
It is a hard sale, of course, I wonder if there is someone out there that would pay anything for the SOB...
