For my money, it is the current civil trial in New York, brought by the New York state attorney general, Letitia James, that threatens Trump’s reputation most acutely and right where it hurts. The suit carries no threat of prison or disruption to Trump’s presidential bid. But in the short term it does threaten to unseat his reputation as a businessman of any standing and strip him of his licence to operate a business in New York.

    Neat if it happens, but it won’t change any opinions. Those already anti-Trump will point to it as another example of how corrupt Trump is and those already pro-Trump will point to it as an example of how the government is out to get him.

      I mean… he’s already a rapist, found to be 100% liable for his rape by a court, just this year.

      And this article is claiming that a blow to his business reputation might change his story.

      Rape is bad. People should really take notice of the raping thing.

        Do you think if people started referring to him as Donald Rapey McTrump, that he would be able to sue them for defamation considering he was found in a court to be a rapist?

        Too bad our news outlets are huge pieces of shit.

        “Why did she wait so long?” There are a million excuses for him.

        If you ask an Obama or Carter voter to name some things they didn’t like about their candidate they’ll give you a long list. All Trumps people are ready to swear he was the greatest President ever.

      Exactly. “He was a billionaire when he took the Oath in 2016. The Deep State went after him behind the scenes to strip him of his wealth. I’m signing all my social security benefits over to him today!!”
