“To be in a drug deal, you need to know what you can spend, what you need to re-up.”

Also one of the idols of Robinson Cano of the NY Yankees. I'm sure good ol George is rolling in his grave.

What are the statutes of limitation on crack dealing? He just incriminated himself, where is the IRS on his ill gotten gains?

Sort of like how an SS officer at Auschwitz knew about scheduling trains.

The SS officer brought misery and death. The drug dealer brings misery and death. To brag about either "profession" is repulsive, and tells you much about the person doing the bragging.

Don’t forget: This bug also stabbed his brother after accusing him of stealing his jewelry and he also stabbed a record exec in the stomach at a night club.

Hanging out with this vermin is what our POTUS chose as being more important than protecting our Ambassador and vets in BENGHAZI!

And the huge majority of young black males in America is striving to be like him. While summarily dismissing men like Dr. Ben Carson.

Isn’t this how Bootlegger Joseph P. Kennedy Sr. got started in the ‘30s only with booze?

If all conservative Americans boycotted these thugs and trash, specifically hip hop/pop music and NFL/NBA, these arrogant vermin would not have their influence on our culture or their wealth. Don’t watch them, don’t listen to them, don’t buy or allow your children to buy their music, or their products or merchandise.

What does “re-up” mean?

You need enough cash to buy your supply.

What he was referring to, was gross margin. He needed to know at what price he should be in order to be able to buy more crack AND make enough profit to make the business work.

Remember, you have security, price of guns and ammo, bribes, etc.

Someone should ask Jay Z how many innocent bystanders he killed and wounded when shooting it out on the streets with rival crack dealers.
