Comment on Judge rules Donald Trump defrauded banks, insurers as he built real estate empire

@realcaseyrollins @realcaseyrollins I haven't read the article yet, but I don't think Trump is that stupid. He hired good attorneys who wrote advantageous contracts ... so whenever a venture wasn't profitable, the lenders or investors often wound up taking much of the loss, especially those ventures that went into Chapter 11 bankruptcy. But if there had been any hint of fraud, he was in New York, which has the best state enforcement agencies in the country. They would have burned him at the stake in 2015-2016 when he was running for office and proclaiming "I will beat Hillary".

If he beat the bankers at their own game, good for him. They should be glad he didn't call for people to hang the bankers, because most of the country would have participated.

I'm not communist at all, but if someone were to round bnakers up and start hanging or beheading them, my chief objection would be trying to limit it to just bankers and not expand it after the bankers are all gone.
