    The most powerful person on the planet, also happens to be the most shamelessly corrupt.

    LOL.

    The way I see it, Trump will be dead long before the law holds him accountable for anything.

    That said, is there any way any of the kids could get roped in to this?

        First fair and speedy trials, of course. Then as many ropes as are needed.

      I hope all of them go to prison. Jared, too, that little snake.

      He has some weird sway over his cult; I don’t know if any of his fanboiz and fangurlz have any special love for the rest of the crime family.

      The Trump companies have been sued and lost dozens of times - and as figurehead and CEO of most of them I presume civil damages cases could wipe out a lot of the Trump family fortune. But, Trump has been working with the mob since the 80s and had Roy Cohn (mob laywer) as his personal laywer back then and for many years, so being career criminals (essentially a mob family), I’d not be surprised if most of the money and assets are carefully squirreled away in offshore accounts and trusts and whatnot.

      Also given that the US is doing everything it can to pull apart legislative protections against the billionaires class, it would probably all be a major uphill battle without a sweeping change of government and an expansion of the supreme court.
