    Yeah, if he was upfront about things then there would be no criminal case

    However saying he set up shell companies to carry out falsification isn’t moralising

        I think you misread. He said “disguising”, which only means intent to keep hidden by masking the truth.

          The only disgusting (immoral) part of this is Trump cheating on his wife.

          Everything else could have been achieved perfectly legally (i.e. without disgust) if Trump had been smart.

          I don’t want to disgust you, but “intending to keep things hidden by masking the truth” is practically the definition of politics.

        I don’t think anyone is still naive enough to think you can win over Republicunts. The way to stop Trump is to battle voter apathy and tear down barriers to vote, because the majority will not vote for Trump if they get to cast their votes.

            I can find both opinions: Helps Trump / helps Biden, so probably nobody the fuck knows. I am still sure that the reason Trump won in 2016 was too many Democrat voters being put off by Clinton + the “Bernie Bro” crowd staying home.
