Does this mean that when Trump signs a document confirming its contents are true, that in fact the signature means nothing? Is it always the case that signing a document does not confirm anything, and that say, the Banks can look at a signed declaration by Trump claiming the value of Property A is X, and automatically assume it is false?
How about other documents with signatures, like a marriage licence or
The Declaration of Independence, 4th July 1776, signed by all those traitors to the King?

This goes way back years, so the investigations into the allegations by the New York Attorney General James begs a profound question -what was the quality of the due diligence that lenders, auditors, lawyers and others responsible did when evaluating Trump's claims? If it is the case that Trump exaggerated the size of his apartment in Trump Tower, why did nobody notice when, as the AG pointed out, its valuation would have made it the most expensive apartment in New York? Can nobody in the business notice the difference between 11,000 sq ft and 30,000 sq ft?Quote:

Again, we know Trump was close to bankruptcy in the early 1990s when his New Jersey casinos went belly up, so how did he manage to acquire bank loans when he had a string of business failures and was clearly a risky investment, with a record of rarely if ever paying his debts? Was it the collateral he provided to the banks that convinced the Banks? Was it the value of the property portfolio he inherited from his father?
And again, where is the evidence that Trump was investigated for money laundering for the Russian mafia in his New Jersey casinos -indeed, was this one of the reasons they collapsed?- and did anyone 'join the dots' when Trump went into business in Trump Soho with Felix Sater, a convicted racketeer for the Russian mafia? The Scottish Govt is investigating Trump's purchase of golf clubs in Scotland because of the manner in which they were purchased.
To many people, Trump got away with these potential or actual crimes, tying people down through multiple law suits and Chapter 11 bankruptcies, forever using the system to avoid scrutiny of his books, or by settling out of court, as happened with 'Trump University'.
Could it be that what Trump did was involve people in his 'business' schemes that made them liable to financial penalties, and that because of this they went along with them in the hope they would at least get their money back from them?
He was exposed during his 'Presidency' as a liar, a crook and a traitor, and yet he insists he is the Greatest President of all Time, and can de-classify Federal documents merely by thinking it. Like Darth Vader.
It is long past the time when he was exposed to the rule of law, along with the people who enabled him over the years.
Looks like we have gone from 'Are we on the same page?' to 'Are we on the same planet?'. Maybe these two men really are as stupid as they make out to be, in which case why were they in such influential positions in US Govt?

It is possible that whoever approves the loan relies on the financial statements, is not aware of the appraisal, etc.
'James also said the Trumps “received a series of bank ordered appraisals for the commercial property at 40 Wall Street in New York City that calculated the value of the property at $200m as of August 2010 and $220m as of November 2012.
“Yet in his 2011 statement, Mr Trump listed 40 Wall Street with a value of $524m, which increased to $530m over the next two years, more than twice the value calculated by the professionals."
I also want to point out that the valuations he lied about were used to determine his net worth. Banks do not typically order appraisals for every asset you claim to own. For instance, he lied about the value of an apartment he owns by inflating its square footage by threefold.Quote:

And how much his other properties are worth relative to the debt on them matters a lot.
There's also a problem with incentives in the financial sector. Someone would be making a commission from writing the loan.Quote:

Add in political influences, and I can see why noone might have looked too closely at Trump's valuations.
"“In conversations I’d been in the room for, President Trump would explicitly say that he’d love a country that was totally an ‘eye for an eye’ — that’s a direct quote — criminal justice system, and he’d talk about how the ‘right’ way to do it is to line up criminals and drug dealers before a firing squad,” a former White House official told Rolling Stone."

"“We have to get back to common sense, and that is reading, writing, arithmetic,” Mr Trump told the crowd in Davenport, in response to an audience question about schools becoming “indoctrination camps” that are “focused on sexualising our children”.“What they’re teaching in schools today is insane,” said the 76-year-old Republican, who is running for president again after failing to win a second term in 2020."

This is a man who lives in Florida where it was legal for a 74 year-old man to marry a 14 year-old girl, because child marriage is legal in the State. Does it mean it is wrong to 'sexualize' children in school, but not in marriage, when the girl is 12 or 14 and the man 74? Is Florida a paradise for paedophiles?

For once, Trump has outlined a policy -on the Homeless. For a Republican it makes for interesting reading. Here is a summary-
"To combat homelessness, which is driven first and foremost by high housing costs, Mr Trump is proposing opening large “tent cities,” or camps, where homeless people would be forced to live if they did not want to go to jail.“We will then open up large parcels of inexpensive land, bring in doctors, psychiatrists, social workers, and drug rehab specialists and create tent cities where the homeless can be relocated and their problems identified,” Mr Trump said in the video. “But we’ll open up our cities again, make them livable and make them beautiful.”

To most Republicans I would imagine this sounds like Socialism, or the Feds taking control, and that is before the funding is clarified. Maybe best to spend a few billion building prisons and shove the homeless in there. Or re-locate them from LA and San Francisco, to newly built prisons in Alaska and call it the 'Gulag Archipelago'?
Sounds a lot more like fascism. The Nazis did something similar.Quote:

I guess Trump is bored with merely insulting and abusing Americans, be they Veterans, Journalists, other Politicians, he can't seem to do much else -only he has stepped up a level, and now he wants to kill them. Or, as is common with cowards like him, get someone else to do the killing. I don't suppose he was actually thinking of Black Americans....was he?
"When former President Trump hysterically called for shoplifters to be shot in a speech last week before California Republicans, we know who he thinks he’s talking about: Black and Brown people. “We will immediately stop all of the pillaging and theft,” Trump said. “Very simply: If you rob a store, you can fully expect to be shot as you are leaving that store. Shot!”"
but then
"According to a 2014 study in the American Journal of Psychiatry, 77.5 percent of shoplifters are White, significantly above their 59 percent of the national population. Only 8 percent of shoplifters are Black and only another 8 percent are Latino, well below their shares of the national population. That study said, “Shoplifting was significantly more common in individuals with at least some college education, among those with individual incomes over $35,000 and family incomes over $70,000.”"

"led Trump Media to take emergency loans, including from an entity called ES Family Trust, which opened an account with Paxum Bank, a small bank registered on the Caribbean island of Dominica that is best known for providing financial services to the porn industry.Through leaked documents, the Guardian has learned that ES Family Trust operated like a shell company for a Russian-American businessman named Anton Postolnikov, who co-owns Paxum Bank and has been a subject of a years-long joint federal criminal investigation by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) into the Trump Media merger."
