    I can see the future.

    The left isn’t capable of stopping trump, but somewhere in his future a disenfranchised right-wing nutjob has his number.

      I really hope not. Him being assassinated would make him a martyr and shit would really hit the fan then.

      I hope he dies of natural causes on live TV

        I hope god smites him down with a lighting bolt while he’s lying about not being a pedophile on TV.

        However he dies, I will celebrate it with a bottle of cheap wine in my cupboard.

        Yeah. We saw what happened with Charlie Kirk. Killing these people creates a new idol for their followers to worship.

    also the 40bn is meant to bailout some bessenets former associates who invested poorly in ARGENTINA, not the argentinan people.

      SCOTUS said POTUS is immune for official acts.

      I’m sure there’s no conflict of interest involved with that or anything, though. And besides, what could go wrong?

        Well, you see the first step is you just refuse to seat an appointment by the president so you can place the choice of your president after the fact, and claim, we should wait until the election is over.

        Then, when your president is in power and the exact same fucking situation happens again with an appointment during an election, you do your best Nelson hahah, and appoint her anyway.

    I wouldn’t lend Trump $40B either. Dude’s already been convicted of 34 counts of loan fraud.

      They’re not lending to Trump though. They’re lending to Argentina, and they would get their money back from Argentina.

      But banks know they won’t get their money back, since Argentina had to be bailed out 20 times in the past 70 years. That’s on average, every 3.5 years.

      What are the chances they won’t need another bailout in the next 5 years? And what are the chances of banks getting their money back from a country that goes bankrupt every 3.5 years?

      That’s the main reason.

    If Trump starts insulting the banks and trying to impose control on them that would be a sight to see.

      If you can bully banks into giving Argentina $40 billion for nothing, then the whole world’s financial system seems to come into question.

        Lol ehat? Banks have been giving loans to Trump although he was deadass broke. If you still believe into any kind of integrity or logic in the world’s financial system, you’re in for a rough awakening.

          Russian ones, sure. They gladly fund a willing ass hat if it means the ruin of the US.

            No, he was using Deutsche Bank, the world’s dirtiest bank, for years. His money-laundering activities with Russian mobsters came to light when Deutsche Bank was investigated in the 90s. I was surprised he wasn’t arrested back then.

            That’s why his whining about Comey “spying” on him is such bullshit. The FBI wasn’t spying on him, they were investigating a known international criminal with extensive ties to Russian mobsters, which is literally their job.
