New York grand jury may now see some of this. Good.

Wasn’t it Al Capone who went away on tax evasion charges because the cops couldn’t get him for murder? This guy isn’t a murderer (at least not purposefully, in my opinion), but I do… sincerely… hope that he goes to jail. Sooner would be better.

SCOTUS to Trump: Nobody is above the law, including a President. Best quote of the day I heard: Donald was told he doesn’t live on Mt Olympus. Can’t hide everything behind the Presidency forever. There is a reason he fought tooth and nail to keep his financial records sealed and it’s unlikely to be a good one.

What’s that sound you hear? Paper Shredders everywhere, sounding like blenders at Magaritaville.

Here’s a toast to the newly appointed Supreme Court Justices. Speaking of “TOAST” . . .

Must be a lot of things in his tax files that may prove all the things we already believe about him. Why hide something so vigorously if there’s nothing to hide?

I don’t think that Trump is concerned that the auditors will find out that he cheated on his taxes. He’ll probably respond that Hillary and Obama cheated more: the GOP “two wrongs make a right” logic.

What he is afraid of is that people will find out that he isn’t as rich as he would like us peasants to believe.

“If you’re smart, you don’t pay taxes.” That makes the rest of us dummies – MAGA.

The only question is after Trump is convicted of numerous felonies and exhausted his appeals, does he: a) show up at the prison gates on time; b) mysteriously die the day before he’s supposed to enter prison; or c) sends a selfie from the Russia dacha he’s fled to.

“Who’s always texting from the stall / Who’s always swearing in the hall / Who’s always bumbling the call / Guess who (who, me) yeah, you! / He’s gonna get caught / Just you wait and see / (Why’s everybody always pickin’ on me?)” With apologies to Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller’s “The Charlie Brown Song” (1959).

Fraud as a way of life apparently.

Hopefully he’s socially distanced in Attica after leaving the presidency but I doubt he ever does time.

Those dollar signs should probably be ruble signs (₽)…

He’s gonna walk …

Jeff: you forgot the little wiggly odor lines emanating from him. ;

Remember the old adage: Money talks and bullshit walks…. ;-)

Hush little Donald, don’t your cry, cuz’ very soon you will go bye bye!
