    Another one for the golf course.

    "He has no principles. None. None,” she said of Trump

    Glad she at least was human.

      She said that on a taped conversation in private. The article said that she was a critic of his, but I’m not sure that she was a public critic of his.

      The point being, it’s not like Donald Trump doesn’t know that he’s done things that were wrong. For example, he knows it’s wrong to try to steal an election, because he’s constantly accusing other people of doing it. But he does know the truth, that it was he who was doing those things.

      A person shouldn’t be lauded for privately knowing there is a problem, but never doing anything about it.

        I don’t know anything about her other than what this article says. Lauded is a huge stretch.

          Was it shame, or were there worse things waiting for her if sure didn’t resign?

          didn’t she resign cause she got caught, and likely was given no actual choice? Like “resign or be disbarred” or whatever the equivalent would be?

      More than we can say for even a single person in this entire comment thread, apparently.

      A man’s sister dies. What do you do?

        None of the Trump family are going to see this, and they’re a bunch of rich fucks who have exploited people all their lives. They don’t get pity. I wouldn’t shove it in their face, but they won’t see this so it doesn’t matter.

    when she retired amid a judicial conduct inquiry into her alleged involvement in possible tax fraud for her family.

    Is there anyone in that family who isn’t like the very worst of the Kennedys?

      That’s an odd comparison. It’s more like “is there anyone in that family who isn’t like every other Trump?” They are all pieces of shit. No need to go outside their family to find worse examples.

      I mean, rich people are assholes.

      That goes for their families as well. They cultivate a culture of hoarding as much wealth as possible no matter what.

    When I saw her name was Maryanne I was worried that she was “the good Trump,” Mary, who has been very outspoken about her disdain for Donald. It appears that it wasn’t.

    Well, that doesn’t look good for Trump’s longevity past 87…

    Gives him less than a decade left, depending on how you interpret genetics and environmental research effects on overall lifespan.

      Honestly I’m pretty shocked that someone who treats their body that shittily has made it this far.

      Dude is way overweight, eats 4 sandwiches from McDonald’s in one sitting on a regular basis, thinks exercise is bad for you, is probably on stimulants, and reportedly doesn’t sleep much.

      Dude’s like the Keith Richards of being a piece of shit.

          I dunno, people close to him have hinted at his stress levels. And all the public lashing out is getting demonstrably worse. Hell, his “acting out” behavior was getting worse long before he lost the election. There was a great breakdown of his Tweet frequency, and the accompanying lies in those Tweets. Shown on a graph, that shit spiked and never levelled off.

          He’s not stressed because he knows he’s done wrong and it’s coming to bite his ass. He’s stressed because his “enemies” are closing in.

          “So unfair. So corrupt.”

            His latest speeches have been increasingly erratic. Even by his standards, they seemed incoherent and like something was off.

            Don’t get me wrong, his usual speeches are terrible but seemed to push through out of sheer arrogance. Now it’s like he’s running out of steam but some words somewhat manage to escape his mouth.

          I think he cares a lot about things that don’t matter. Despite all that orange makeup he still manages to get red in the face on a regular basis.
