Trumps Throw Tantrum Over Court Monitor’s Financial Bombshell
thedailybeast.com

A lawyer for the Trumps slammed Judge Barbara S. Jones in a court filing Monday morning, vehemently denying Trump lied about a missing $48 million loan.

Now that the retired federal judge babysitting the Trump Organization has uncovered potential tax fraud at the company, the Trumps responded over the weekend by tasking their own accountant as a monitor that monitors the court monitor.

In an indignant court filing Monday morning, a lawyer for the Trumps for the first time launched an all-out attack on Judge Barbara S. Jones—calling her latest report on the family company an absolute lie, a cheap attempt to justify her government-mandated job, and a last-minute ploy to bolster the New York Attorney General’s bank fraud case that just wrapped up.

He tried blackjack already. Poor guy couldn't figure out how to keep multiple casinos, an industry known for basically printing money, afloat. Truly baffling considering what a genius businessman he is.

Turns out you can't launder money & profit from a casino at the same time.

He couldn't - utter abject failure loser.

Laundering is integral to casinos profits.

Which is an amazing achievement for Trump, as usually the issue with trying to launder money through a business is that it looks TOO profitable.
