In reply to the discussion: Breaking Update: Court Unseals Potentially Devastating Testimony-Romney Said Stocks Sold at 1/10th [View all]One_Life_To_Give
(6,036 posts)84. Why is this news
Two years after she sold some of her shares he testifies on their value. A year after is know they would have been worth 3 times what she sold them for. And if she had waited a year would of received 14 million instead of only 13 million. Presumably both sides in this case would of had their own expert witnesses? Perjury charges if any would be coming from the original judge? Who imposed and presumably could have removed any gag order? Seems to be much ado about nothing.

He is a slime. I understand Gloria Allred is filing a new motion to have the gag order lifted.

This is only really a story if Bain bought them or if the ex-husband bought them back and told her

Frame the meme: "Romney lied to a woman to help her ex make a fat profit". People understand that.

It's only a story if Bain bought the shares, or if the wife sold the shares back to the husband.

You are in no position to have any idea what this material indicates. Nor am I.

The obvious question lies in the discrepancy between Romney's value for Staples

If you're liked by him, he'll lie for you. If you aren't liked by him, you're screwed.

One thing is for sure, Staples isn't appreciating the publicity and it's bound to influence

someone certainly made lots of $ with a stock zooming from $2.25 to $22.50 in a year.

So you do not feel she had right to a fair and equitable distribution of their assests?

The wild card is what she would say that conflicts with or isn't covered by the transcript

The only information I have is the transcript which is available to everyone now.
