Did Trump find an infinite money hack?
Step 1: Become president
Step 2: As a private citizen, sue the government for billions of dollars
Step 3: As president, order to settle lawsuit.
Literally nothing our courts can do about it.

Did Trump find an infinite money hack?
Yes, but's much simpler.
-
Lie to everyone.
-
Steal their money.
It'a not infinite yet, but it will be once he controls the central bank. What could go wrong?
I'm sure our 401k plans are going to be juuuuuust fiiiiiine.
At least we know that all our hard work and tax money is going towards using lethal force to protect the country from.... checks notes ...nurses and mothers.
Your 401k plans are balls deep in AI money.
Guess who'll hold the bags when the bubble pops.
Wrong? He'll be a trillionare while a gallon of milk costs a thousand bucks.
Infinite doesn't mean valuable.
The President of the United states is suing his own country and taxpayers. What the fucking fuck, I STILL can't believe the morons elected this shit golem again.
Well, I'll be absolutely goddamned if I'm not sick to death of seeing this dementia-addled sack of rotting shit attempting to ~~extort money from cowardly people/institutions protection racket style~~ file lawsuits that have only the most tenuous of connections to reality against anyone who looks at him wrong seeking in 'damages' sums that i can only think to describe as sheerly fucking delusional
Anyone else? Just me?
Also, I literally don't have even the faintest of clues what kind of fucking horrific, 'affront to God'-level shit that could be evidenced in just your tax returns being made public that would warrant $10b in damages being paid to you, but... Damn
Make a criminal the president and he is going to see a piggy bank everywhere he looks.
Didn't he say he will post his tax records ( and of course he was never going to do)?
Yes. This lawsuit is his direct admission that he was always intentionally lying about that.
They've been being audited for about 10 years at this point. That seems like a lot.
This dude wouldn't even give you a 1099
Of course not. A 1099 implies he actually paid you for your work.
Epstein Files, you say?
What a motherfucker.
More comedy content for Moscow.
Is there a case for a 10 trillion dollar class action lawsuit against Trump for all of us having to listen to his fucking bullshit for all these years? Get on it Legal Eagle!
I seek compensation for 5+ years of hostile living conditions and mental anguish.
Remember when this cunt told his cunt base he'd release his tax returns, like every other president ever, but then didn't? And his cunt base just shrugged and kept licking his boots.
Payable to whom exactly?
Hey, sorry - I think you misspelled "payable to him, exactly!"
I'm so glad he's working hard to save us taxpayers money. /s
He's so pathetic. Like a baby whining to mommy that someone was mean to him.
Wow, yeah, he was very damaged by the leak. Got elected to another term, how awful for the ahole.
They will settle for $10m. This despicable man loses no opportunity to grift
Surely a conflict of interest seeing he’s the boss of everything?
Sueing is the weapon of the rich class.
No fraud here. Look at minnesota its almost 5% of this which is scawy because some of the people are brown!
Need to prove damage the leak caused so have to expose actual records right?
No, he can just order his justice department to settle the lawsuit and pay him. It's sort of like he's suing himself but any judgement gets paid by the taxpayers.
He already did this over the classified bathroom documents and ordered the DOJ to pay him $230M
if truth or reality are damaging to your operation, you're a piece of shit cunt and an idiot
LOL!
