Man, imagine if you got a matching dollar, for every dollar invoiced to Trump by his attorneys? Be walking tall as they say! I wonder when his "funders" are going to tire, paying off all his legal bills? Maybe they should charge him the same rates per hour the Trump Org would charge Gov't employees to stay at his Hotels?
Or maybe they are taking the 'it's not a crime for a star to sexually assault women' strategy. Jurors at rape trial hear Trump defend lewd 'Grab 'em' remarks in new video
BREAKING: Special Counsel Jack Smith has subpoenaed Trump associates Matthew Calamari Sr. and his son Matthew Calamari Jr. and both men will appear before a grand jury tomorrow in the classified documents case. Surveillance footage at Mar-a-Lago reportedly captured Trump’s close aide Walt Nauta and another Mar-a-Lago employee moving boxes containing documents out of a storage closet. Investigators will focus on how documents have been handled in response to the subpoena for them and if they could have been tampered with. Questioning will also hone in on a text message between Nauta and Calamari Sr. and subsequent conversations about the surveillance footage, according to two of the sources.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2022/10/13/walt-nauta-maralago-trump-documents/ Walt Nauta is the witness in question, according to these people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation. The 39-year-old worked as a valet for Trump in the Oval Office suite, according to former White House staffers, and served as a personal aide at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s residence and private club in Florida. The Washington Post reported Wednesday that an unnamed Trump employee had provided critical evidence to investigators — telling them that he moved boxes at the former president’s request at a time when the government was seeking the return of classified material, including some highly sensitive items, from Mar-a-Lago. The witness account was corroborated by security-camera footage, the people familiar with the case said, giving investigators key evidence of Trump’s behavior as they probe potential crimes including obstruction, destruction of government records or mishandling classified information.

And hopefully it will make him even less electable in the general election than he was in 2020 although I would never count him out having learned a lesson from 2016. On the other hand a lot of voters especially those in the far left wing of the Democratic party also learned a lesson from 2016 i.e. a Trump presidency is a far worse alternative than the presidency of a Democrat that they considered flawed. They stayed home or voted third party in 2016. They didn't make the same mistake in 2020.
Georgia GOP chairman says he was just following orders from Trump lawyers | CNN Politics I don't know what to think of this. An obviously experienced politician who willingly became a fake elector in Georgia, claiming he shouldn't be prosecuted because he was just following orders from Trump's lawyers.

Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani plotted to sell presidential pardons for $2 million a piece, former staffer says in lawsuit (msn.com) A new rape civil lawsuit filed against Donald Trump's former lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, says the pair devised a scheme to make presidential pardons available for purchase for $2 million each. In addition to claims that Giuliani raped her repeatedly while she worked for him, Noelle Dunphy, who served as his law firm's director of business operations, alleged in a lawsuit filed Monday that Giuliani asked: "if she knew anyone in need of a pardon, telling her that he was selling pardons for $2 million, which he and President Trump would split." .................................. Compared to other presidents, Trump flexed his power to pardon people of their crimes very little while he was in office, most often offering clemency and full pardons to his political allies — including Roger Stone, his former strategist Steve Bannon, and his son-in-law's father, Charles Kushner — while hinting that he could pardon himself if he were convicted of a crime while in office. Compared to former President Barack Obama's more than 1,300 clemency grants, Trump pardoned or commuted the sentences of 240 people while in office. While it remains unknown whether recipients of the high-profile pardons paid the $2 million alleged in the lawsuit, The New York Times reported only 25 of the 240 pardons and commutations Trump granted during his term came through the regular Justice Department process, instead being routed through a private process developed by the Trump White House.
the best people, only the best.. Giuliani Demanded Staffer Give Him Oral Sex During Calls From Trump: Lawsuit (businessinsider.com) A bombshell lawsuit out of Manhattan accuses Rudy Giuliani of forcing a former employee to submit to sex acts as a condition of her employment — including making her give him oral sex while he took calls from then-President Donald Trump on speaker phone. "He often demanded oral sex while he took phone calls on speaker phone from high-profile friends and clients, including then-President Trump," ex-staffer Noelle Dunphy claims in the 70-page lawsuit filed Monday. "Giuliani told Ms. Dunphy that he enjoyed engaging in this conduct while on the telephone because it made him 'feel like Bill Clinton,'" according to the lawsuit, which seeks $10 million in unpaid wages and damages. Dunphy says she was an emotionally vulnerable domestic violence victim when Giuliani hired her as director of business development for the Giuliani Companies in January, 2019, a job she held for two years.
