Peter Burgess COMMENTARY

HOW CAN TRUMP BECOME A CREDIBLE PRESIDENT? For me, the answer is simple ... he can't! Trump is essemtially a 'buffoon' that appeals to a very dumb audience but hardly anyone else! YThe fact that so may Americans have chosen to be in support of Trump reflects very badly on Americans.

The idea that about 50% of American voters voted for Donald Trump to become the next President ... to be President for a second term ... is something I have difficulty explaining.

The only explanation for this is that there is a very large part of the American population that should be described as 'not of sound mind!'

Maybe it can be explained by the idea that Trump is a world class 'con artist' who took advanrage of a TV platform ... 'The Apprentice' ... to promote himself and ingratiate himself as something that he never was!

I had an interaction with Donald Trump in the 1990s when he was involved with casinos in Atlantic City. My impression was that he was an obnoxious manager ... and essentially evil in his business behavior. When the Trump casinos failed and went into bankruptcy, Trump walked away losing rather little if anything ... but the small contractors of which there were thousands lost everything. This seems to have been his modu operandi all his life ... and, to put it plainly ... it stinks!

Trump’s $500 million he owes NY for fraud in the operation of his companies isn’t going anywhere as NY seeks to collect on it. NY Attorney General Leticia James isn’t afraid of Trump and his threats to jail her; she just fired back at Trump’s demand —comparing himself to Abraham Lincoln and George Washington — to throw the $500 million judgment in the trash can. Michael Popok who practices in NY describes the action.

  • million for civil fraud that the Trump
  • organization was a judge to have
  • committed before he was even president
  • not when he was president and I'm going
  • to break it all down for you with a new
  • response by Judy Veil The depu Deputy
  • attorney general from New York and how
  • she's responded to John sour who
  • reminded everyone in his last writing to
  • the attorney general that he is the
  • incoming solicitor general for the
  • United States not that any of that
  • matters I'm Michael popac midest touch
  • Network and legal AF let's talk about
  • the new letter we just got from The
  • Office of the Attorney General in which
  • she uh ever so politely tells John sour
  • the lawyer for Donald Trump soon to be

  • 1:01
  • the incoming likely solicitor general of
  • the United States to go pound sand that
  • they are not going to dismiss the Civil
  • judgment having nothing to do with the
  • presidency having everything to do with
  • the Trump organization and their
  • persistent fraud as that term is used
  • under a unique Statute in New York that
  • I practice in called
  • 63-12 of the executive law which allows
  • the Attorney General to stop persistent
  • fraud of the operation of business that
  • was a 12 uh sorry that was an 11-week
  • bench trial by judge engoron after
  • summary judgment already granted to the
  • people of the state of New York against
  • Donald Trump this is a case that Alina
  • habba helped handled you know she's now
  • the counselor to the president on the
  • incoming uh Trump Administration but she
  • uh lost almost every case she ever
  • handled for uh for Donald Trump and now
  • we've got the letter I'm going to read
  • it to you so that you know exactly what
  • I'm talking about first let me it sour

  • 2:00
  • for Trump sends a letter to the attorney
  • general uh telling her that she should
  • immediately immediately vacate the
  • Judgment the $450 million which is up on
  • appeal with the appell division first
  • Department in New York the intermediary
  • appell Court get rid of it why because
  • Abraham Lincoln wants her to because uh
  • George Washington's Farewell Address
  • compels her to because John F Kennedy in
  • his address at a at Harvard would
  • require it to bring the country together
  • to unite the country and to put down to
  • pound swords into plowshares to bring
  • this country together in the the only
  • way that Donald Trump knows how to do
  • does that sound like the Donald Trump
  • that you and I know this John sour
  • letter of this lofty oratory get you
  • know Abraham Lincoln's Thanksgiving Day
  • address uh George Washington's farewell
  • speech right because on the mount
  • Rushmore of great Americans we're going

  • 3:01
  • to see Donald Trump nestled between
  • George Washington and Abraham Lincoln
  • and and
  • JFK come on so she gets the letter and
  • in there he can't help himself John sour
  • who who you know had some success for
  • Trump I'm not going to take it away from
  • him he was successful twice in two uh
  • appeals before the United States Supreme
  • Court in favor of Donald Trump yes he
  • was but he she he couldn't help himself
  • but to remind her that he's going to be
  • almost threatening her he's going to be
  • the solicitor eneral the 10th Justice of
  • the United States Supreme Court in in a
  • month or two all right like that has
  • anything to do with it so now we got the
  • letter from Miss uh Miss Vale let me
  • read it to you because I think it's uh
  • it's not that long and I think you'll
  • find it very interesting so here we go
  • let's let's take it one at a time here
  • letter is dated December 9th 2024 to G
  • John D John sour at James Otis Law Group
  • in St Louis Missouri Dear Mr sour I'm
  • writing in response to your letter dated
  • nov 26 just before Thanksgiving the

  • 4:02
  • office will not stipulate to vacate the
  • final judgment already entered by
  • Supreme Court New York County in this
  • action or otherwise seek to dismiss this
  • action as you know this is a civil
  • enforcement action under executive law
  • 6312 against the Trump organization and
  • its top Executives for fraudulent and
  • unlawful actions to misleadingly inflate
  • Donald J Trump's personal net worth in
  • business transactions in order for him
  • to uh uh obtained more favorable terms
  • on loans and insurance policies than he
  • otherwise would have received this civil
  • enforcement action was filed following a
  • multi-year
  • investigation uh she went on to say that
  • um it also was the result of a uh 11we
  • bench trial before judge uh before judge
  • engoron and that there is an appeal
  • that's pending um she she uh uh on page
  • one says your letter presents no basis
  • for this office to seek to vacate the
  • final judgment or to dismiss this action

  • 5:02
  • right and then she continues let's let's
  • let's continue uh on page two the this
  • Supreme Court decision did not impose
  • any criminal sanctions on Trump here
  • she's reminding them of two things one
  • this is not a criminal action this is a
  • civil action and you're already Trump
  • participating in the appeal to try to
  • knock down the the $500 million judgment
  • and that's not doesn't seem to be
  • impairing or impeding your office of the
  • presidency because um there's already
  • case law both under Clinton versus Jones
  • involving Bill Clinton from 20 1997 and
  • the recent Trump versus United States
  • case that John sour participated in
  • there's the little dig the little shiv
  • at John sour you want to be solicitor
  • general let me cite a case you were
  • involved with and you should know better
  • so so here's the office saying by the
  • way under those two cases civil lawsuits
  • arising from unofficial conduct May

  • 6:01
  • proceed while the president is in office
  • so we're not going to we're already at
  • the Judgment stage we're only only thing
  • that's left is the appeal so no we're
  • not going to get rid of it because you
  • want us to turn $500 million in favor of
  • the people of the state of New York in a
  • toilet paper as a gun owner for personal
  • protection I also am concerned about gun
  • safety and securing my weapon in the
  • house so that it doesn't pose a danger
  • to friends and loved ones before I found
  • stopbox USA the only place I could store
  • my handgun was in my fingerprint gun
  • safe but what about those times when
  • you're between the safe and taking it to
  • a gun range or you're in another part of
  • the house completely and you want to
  • have your weapon nearby but not just
  • laying out or you're traveling with it
  • including at the airport and then I
  • found stopbox USA and it's instant
  • access portable gun case when you need a
  • gun safe alternative that doesn't
  • require batteries and has a custom
  • mechanical finger lock without any
  • electronic so you can use it even in the

  • case of a power outage or in the dark as
  • soon as my wife and I trained on how to
  • open the box without looking but with a
  • secure custom finger Cod we instantly
  • looked at each other and said got it and
  • we enjoy the peace of mind that comes
  • from knowing that we can access our
  • firearm in an emergency from anywhere in
  • the house but keep it out of Harm's Way
  • of visitors and children if you're like
  • me and you own a handgun for
  • self-defense your storage likely fit
  • fits into one of two frustrating
  • categories it's either locked away safe
  • but Out Of Reach in an emergency or it's

  • stopbox she Judith Veil goes on to say
  • there's also no merit to your claim that
  • the pendency of defendant's own appeal

  • 9:02
  • will impede Trump's official duties as
  • president in other words this is his
  • appeal not ours the ordinary burdens of
  • civil litigation do not impede the
  • president's official duties in any way
  • that violates the US Constitution C
  • Clinton I like that one 520 USC 705 and
  • C zervos another case involving Donald
  • Trump in any event Mr Trump does not
  • face any such litigation burdens here
  • the trial is over final judgment has
  • been rendered and defendants appeal to
  • the first department has been fully
  • submitted and argued that was about 90
  • days ago Mr Trump's official duties will
  • not be impeded while awaiting the first
  • Department's decision nor will his
  • duties be impeded if further appeals to
  • this action are filed those appeals will
  • be handled primarily by his appet
  • lawyers meaning not you John sour
  • because you've been kicked upstairs to
  • be solicitor general and any
  • consultations Mr Burton Mr Trump may
  • have with those attorneys about appeals
  • will not plausibly impose any
  • unconstitutional burden this is what

  • 10:01
  • I've been saying in other hot tis which
  • is Donald Trump's sort of in a box now
  • because he's taken appeals of his civil
  • suits and and at the same time he's
  • going to argue like all the Capitol
  • Police and Metro suits and Jan six suits
  • against him for violation of the KKK act
  • and uh and civil rights for those that
  • were injured or maimed or disabled or
  • Worse during the attack on the capital
  • he he's he's appealing all of those
  • issues so you can on one hand say well I
  • can maintain an appeal and that doesn't
  • impair or impede my presidential powers
  • and on the other hand say dismiss these
  • cases or stay these cases for four years
  • because I can't be bothered and that's
  • sort of what the uh Deputy attorney
  • general here Jude the veil is saying
  • back to John sour and you should know
  • better you want to throw in my face that
  • you're going to be the solicitor general
  • of the United States let me throw a
  • couple of cases back at your face in
  • your face that you were involved with
  • and you should know better so the answer
  • sir is good day there is the door grab

  • 11:01
  • your hat the the New York is not going
  • to rip up a $500 million judgment
  • because Abraham Lincoln gave a
  • Thanksgiving Day address or George
  • Washington gave a farewell address we're
  • all waiting for the day that Donald
  • Trump gives a fairwell address and be
  • done with all of this but but uh we
  • wanted to report right here on legal AF
  • in the mest touch Network I had been
  • waiting for it I knew I knew that
  • Laticia James uh who's been mercilessly
  • vehemently attacked by magot and Donald
  • Trump and lawyers around him I I've seen
  • comments made by people like Mike Davis
  • in Donald Trump's Inner Circle that
  • they're going to put Leticia James's fat
  • ass in jail you've got uh cash Patel in
  • a book he called gangsters in government
  • listing Leticia James as somebody he's
  • going to investigate in jail and do you
  • see her being fearful do you see her
  • saying oh I'm quaking in my boots you're
  • going to investigate me you may
  • prosecute me that's a badge of honor
  • it's a badge of honor I mean i' I've

  • 12:00
  • pushed to have all these people get
  • immunity because I just think it it's a
  • it's a way that Joe Biden can avoid a
  • lot of this but if they don't want to
  • and they want to stand in the line of
  • fire letia James I I wouldn't if if I
  • was a betting man Leticia James versus
  • Donald Trump Leticia James all day long
  • and twice on
  • Sunday she's going to be leading the
  • charge just to put a little marker here
  • on this hot TI she Leticia James along
  • with about 16 other attorney generals
  • but her in the lead with the California
  • attorney General are going to be leading
  • the charge against Donald Trump every
  • day every week filing lawsuits against
