He should be ordered to pay something back to the American public for his frivolous term in office.

There's a motion being proposed to make Trump give up the $8+ *7.8 million in foreign donations he illegally accepted while in office.

I'd fully support this proposition. And if the companies can't cough up, then nationalize them, fill those hotels with the homeless. Would do more good for the country than anything that man has done in his entire life.

He stopped leasing the hotel when he left DC. I think a trailer park would look good on his useless golf courses though.

With penalties?

I wish but there should be a correction. It's 7.8 million.

I would not insist on financial penalties, I'd be fine with Trump behind bars for as long as normal people would end there for crimes on similar level.

Financial penalties = only a crime for the poor

Financial penalties apportioned as a direct percentage of net wealth on the other hand would be pretty cool.

You are aware that faking down ones worth and income is the main reason that millionaires pay less taxes than normal working people?

Is there a breakdown on who donated to him? Maybe I can find some Hungarian GONGO there, to use it as an argument against the sovereignty law.

I think we are all due some money from all the pain and suffering he's inflicted on this nation.

The New York, Attorney General is trying to get $370 million for the people of New York

Ought to, but I don't imagine it would be easy to get politicians on board with that.
