I understand that; legally he would have to. You don’t have to hide EVERYTHING from taxes; he may not even be breaking the law by doing it.

When the Yankees hold spring training in Florida, those salaries are outside of NY’s grasp in terms of taxation. It is completely legal.

“I don’t understand why Mike didn’t tell Lieawatha that he would authorize release of his NDAs as soon as she authorized Harvard to release her hiring records so that we could see she didn’t actually get hired because of her fake Indian ancestry.”

because mini-mike hasn’t had to think on his feet probably for at least 50 years, since for the last 50 years his only necessary response was to fire anyone who criticized him and destroy their lives ...

what we saw in the debate was an arrogant, ignorant, unprepared fool caught like a stunned deer in the lights on live television in front of an audience of millions who was totally unable to cope in any fashion whatsoever when he wasn’t in total control ...

no matter how many billions one spends on ads faking a personality, no amount of billions can actually buy one a real personality, nor can those billions magically grant one the ability to debate a pack of professional, lying Piranhas who’ve spent their whole lives engaging in lying and debating before live television audiences ...

What sane, rational person would consider voting for any of those DemoRat carnival performers?

I don’t feel the least bit sorry for him. I used to work for somebody like him. A short, little
tyrant who knew it all and treated people like crap except for those who fawned all over him.

Well-said.

Some conjectured his handlers were delinquent----sending him in unprepared.

But I'm betting the arrogant know-it-all Mike shot them down....after all, he was so full of gray matter.

Michael Reagan is next to worthless.

He calls “Mayor Pete” a moderate?

Stacking the Supreme Court with 15 members, eliminating the Electoral College, banning semi-automatic rifles and forcing people to sell the ones they own to the government, legalizing heroin, etc. sure as hell are NOT moderate positions in any way shape or form.

..........give him credit for making a self-deprecating joke. about himself.....hard to do when still smarting........

Oh, please.......in his rareified world, where he never hears a discouraging word......he did great.

Can you envision, the high-fives with his campaign team back at campaign hdq?

His campaign manager told us, "they didn't lay a glove on him.....he was just getting warmed up."

Somebody on Fox News put it best: “This is the fist time a person spent $450 million for the privilege of getting scalped by a Fake Indian”. It’s worth repeating.

“He is not in it for delegate count except perhaps to deny anyone else a majority. He is running for the only delegates that matter, the super-delegates who will decide for the DNC’s preferred Candidate should no one get a majority in the primaries.

i think not, and here’s why:

On second and subsequent ballots at the 2020 Dem convention, it takes a minimum of 2,376 delegate votes to win a majority. There are only 775 unpledged (super) delegates, so even if mini-mike secures all 775 super-delegate votes (very unlikely), he still needs to win a minimum of 1,601 pledged delegates during the primaries/caucuses elections, meaning that mini-mike would need to win at least 41% of the total 3,979 pledged delegates available to be won during the primary/caucus elections ...

making that feat even more difficult, a candidate wins zero pledged delegates during a state primary/caucus if they don’t win at least 15% of the total votes cast by the electorate in that state, and the polls are showing mini-mike is barely meeting that threshold in most states, and these are polls taken BEFORE mini-mike’s disastrous debate performance ...

personally, at this point, i think mini-mike’s chances of being the Dem nominee are close to zero ...

Yeah which is why his campaign was asking the others to drop out. They see the numbers. Think he could go third party?

I rather enjoyed watching Lieawatha gut him onstage.

“Think he could go third party?”

only if he wants to guarantee Trump a landslide win ...

True if he was rational but might he have an ego big enough to think he could win outright with all his money?

I do not know is what context you made the remark, but whacking this old bat would set the country ablaze in a civil war. This would not be good on so many levels. For starters not only would it literally destroy the country, but leave it wide open to be taken over by someone, let’s say China.

If CWII does ever evolve, I’d prefer it be over the taking away of rights, such as the 2A. At least the side of the war fighting for rights would have the moral high ground as well as a legal basis. It would be a shorter war with less violence.

Now if another dem whacked her, and it could be proven, then the rat infighting would be blamed with no civil war.

Bloomberg may have looked overmatched, but he did manage to expose Bernie as the fraud that he is. Don’t think for a minute that the party will let a commie who has 3 homes worth around 2 million collectively carry the party banner. Look for the convention to be quite ugly, unless of course they pay off Bernie.

I question both her moderation and her ability to get through a campaign. But yes she apparently wants the nomination bad enough and she has both the super -delegate route and Arkancide open to her. She just might rise out of her crypt and make a play for the nomination !

“True if he was rational but might he have an ego big enough to think he could win outright with all his money?”

one think that, no, he wouldn’t think that after his disaster at the debate and upcoming poll number drops (the betting sites react instantly compared to the polls, and they dropped precipitously) ... but yeah, there’s the unknown ego thing ... IF he’s rational he would put his billions into trying to deny Trump Congress during Trump’s second term ... I’ve got a feeling the reason Trump is holding a rally almost every night this early in the election is because he’s concerned about the billions that mini-mike is likely to shovel towards the Democrat Congressional elections ...

"Michael Reagan is a never Trumper. I used to like him but he went sour when he bad mouthed Trump during the 16 campaign."

Michael Reagan or Michael Medved?

Michael Reagan did indeed trash DJT early on, but is now an outspoken defender of Pres. Trump.
