            he already did, and the fucking let him squeak by on a 175m bond from an agency that wasnt technically financially able to do it.

            because rich people have different rules.

              Not just financially unable, legally unable. They weren’t authorized to issue surety bonds in New York.

                ha! I had actually had typed out ‘legally’ but changed it. legality is irrelevant if its allowed to stand and it is standing, isnt it?

                  “When the president does it, that means it is not illegal” also applies to former presidents, I guess.

            Oh did they finally make him put in money instead of lowering the requirements and giving him more chances?

              they lowered the bond to 175m, and let him used an illegal-in-new-york bond agency.
