    It never cease to amaze me what people with money will do?!! Good luck on getting that 2.5 million back?!! That money is already paying off part of that Trump debt of 421 million dollars?!!

    Venture capitalist Fred Eshelman blasts group that launched failed court cases that couldn’t come up with any evidence of rigged voting.

    A major contributor to a group backing President Donald Trump’s fight to overturn the presidential election sued to recover $2.5 million in donations after the campaign failed in several court cases and was unable to prove any fraud.

    The lawsuit filed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas by North Carolina venture capitalist Fred Eshelman argued that the nonprofit group True the Vote promised to keep him informed of how his millions were being used in what was pitched as a strong case against alleged election fraud. Instead, the suit alleged, he was fed “vague responses, platitudes and empty promises of follow-up” that never occurred.

    The “that has got to hurt” was aimed at the Trump campaign because judging by Dirty Donnie’s history of stiffing contractors and suppliers the LAST thing Donnie wants is to lose more money

    I actually will enjoy following this because Teflon Don has used the courts to rort thousands of contractors out of fair payment not to mention the whole Trump University scandal. Going head to head with someone who can afford to pay to keep the suit in court will be a new experience for Don

    And Rudy is no Roy Cohn

    Delusional belief is imagining one can speak for what everyone believes. The appeal to majority (or is it totality?) fallacy.

    Trump will not be able to use the office to enrich himself. Biden probably won't go after him like how Trump claimed he would put Clinton and Obama in jail, but I hope they open up the books on how at a minimum, how unethical the Trump admin was.

    Did not take long for him to realize he was being scammed. With all the noise right now its reasonable to assume a few people are going to be fooled. At least he followed up and found out his money was not working as intended, there are some people out there that will neglect to do that and are the real victims of disinformation.

    The Democratic Party is now the party of the rich and has been trending that way for some time.

    Looking at exit polling the primary difference between the base of the two parties is education. There are a few more narrow items such as age and ethnicity but the main one is knowledge and critical thinking.

    Republicans are now the party of the uneducated, evangelicals, the old; democrats the party of educated, the youth, and those that believe in science.

    FTFY

    BTW, exit polling shows that there is only a slight divide in income:

    But feel free to peddle lies and conspiracy — I guess that too is another class your team can claim.

    How far Trump’s loyalists are willing to go to please their Cult leader?

    Suicide missions?
