Trump Trials, Frauds, Scams | Can We Trust Trump? | Scrood | Show 23

We all have to ask ourselves if we would want people like Trump and his chosen administration running this country and making healthcare choices for us; dissolving the ACA; decreasing environmental safety standards and bank regulation even more; fighting against unions, and giving more permanent tax breaks to the uber rich,  (like ALL republican administrations have done--for all of the above)?

More importantly for some of you, would a conman be your friend?

Trump, trials, frauds, and scams. Can we trust a person like Donald Trump? Do we want a person like Trump in office? Would he be our friend?

Elly 0:16

Not for me. He's addicted to lying, for one thing. He mainlines government money and contracts, Like housing contracts for the poor. I have a question. How much COVID money did he get? How much did his family get?

Ben 0:36

Too much. Way too much.

Elly 0:38

Yeah, we know. We know. Yeah, the IRS is having problems with some of Trump's tax deductions in the Trump Tower of Chicago. Hmmm.

Ben 0:49

What do we call that? Creative tax evasion?

Elly 0:55

Well, it's not creative writing, but I guess it could be creative accounting?

Ben 0:59

There you go. Creative accounting.

Elly 1:01

Y'all know it's creative accounting.

Ben 1:04

Trump and his family have done this over and over again, beginning with his father, maybe his grandfather. We have to pay taxes, but the rich and the powerful seldom do.

Elly 1:21

Imagine that.

Moving right along. Trump has ripped off his friend, David Pecker, from the

Ben 1:34

I'm sorry, I can't help but laugh at that one.

from the trash mag, the National Enquirer. For 150 grand that, Pecker paid off Mc paid off, paid off McDougal. the playboy bunny.

Ben 1:52

At least he didn't grab Pecker by the ussy. Oh, man. Stormy Daniels was the pro and she got 20, 000 less. Then the Bunny McDougal.

Elly 2:18

Okay, okay. Trump screws everyone. His truth social partners. They're suing him and now he's suing them to make things look better. His non profit. It was fined by the government and closed down. Then we have the Trump University scam, which was an unaccredited school with unaccredited teachers, teachers that had no education or experience in the subjects that they were teaching. And then there's the recent trial, with the Trump Organization for Fraud. The Trump Organization, it was a criminal trial, as you all remember, it was fined for fraud.

Ben 3:01

Mm hmm.

Elly 3:03

Cause they were guilty of fraud. The kids were also found guilty and had to pay a fine and so did Weisselberg. Of course. And the civil trial, that was that 450 million trial. I know. Isn't that funny? Trump was found guilty in the civil trial for falsifying bank documents, insurance, real estate value. Let's not forget the IRS, which we have heard little from at this time,

Ben 3:39

His attorney kept saying, so did you refer to him as the orange turd? She said, yes, I did. She said, you refer to Donald Trump as the orange turd and you're the one to take him down? She said, I didn't say I'd take him down. I said I'd flush him down the toilet. He said, listen to this. And then the Trump had to let her hear his. His attorney talked about the orange turd for like 10 minutes.
