In reply to the discussion: Pic Of The Moment: So, It's Clear To Everybody Now That This Trump Thing Is Just A Scam, Right? [View all]PatSeg
(51,075 posts)55. Oh yes, I think you are right
This started out as just another gig for Donald Trump, an opportunity to get a lot of publicity and embellish his so-called brand, but I think he may seriously regret the whole thing. He has gotten away with so much for so long, he must think he is untouchable, but there is nothing quite like a presidential campaign when it comes to exposure. Every little transgression, every skeleton comes under the microscope and in Trump's case, I think there will be enough for ten presidential campaigns. And yes, I think it may very likely include criminal or illegal activities. Oops, do you think he might sue us now???
