Trump is being brutally beat down by the Prosecution today

They are pulling excerpts from his books that disclose how tight he is with money. Even covered specifics in his books that directly relate to this case. Defense, appropriately, tried to blame ghostwriters, but prosecution was ready for that. They even used a quote from Trump’s own mother to show that Trump really is what he says he is in the books.

And Stormy is testifying after this curb stomping…

I suspect today is the day that Trump violates the gag order that gets him put in jail.

Basically excerpts from the book about how much of a control freak he is in regards to signing checks. His own words being used against him.

He signed these checks and he knew exactly what they were for.

golf courses, businesses, expenses, etc., all over $10K I imagine, isn't that a little excessive?

I really do bet that he's never donated to a cause (a truly 'good' charitable cause) in his life, I remember him getting slammed for zero deductions (and any that he whipped out on the spot were all lies).

God, he makes me even sicker after reading some of Stormy Daniels' testimony w/ her sexual encounter/rape w/ tRUMP. A sick predator.

Does anyone really believe he would sign checks for 'legal expenses' that were not detailed? He doesn't pay his bills when they ARE detailed.

5. Walt Nauta can handle the job. He is a tRump cleanup specialist.

He needs to go to prison for a long time so the rest of us can have some peace.
