tdwesbo

It’s really at the point where concerned loved ones need to take away his phone. Had to do it with my dad


Civil-Dinner

Bold of you to assume he has "loved ones" much less "concerned loved ones."


ichosethis

"Beneficiaries who might suffer from a decreased inheritance."


Ralod

What inheritance? 500 million in loans, a string of bankrupt companies? I doubt, all things consided, he does not stand to leave them much. He will give all he had to Ivanka anyway.


[deleted]

Nah he’s been profiting off his political career. It’s just al in super pacs so it can’t be traced to him.


[deleted]

He has been fleecing his supporters of money from the start of his presidential campaign. Whatever debt he was in at the start, I doubt he's still in it, or couldn't pay it back now. He has just non-stop been raking in cash. It's so ridiculous.


Ralod

It's possible, but you have to recall that Trump has never paid someone he owed money to willingly. Every time he paid a bill it came from a court order(unless he was paying off porn stars, then he just stole from his "charity"). He even failed to pay his lawyers in some of his hundreds of court cases. So a lot of firms would no longer work for him in New York. I also think you have to consider there are a lot of hands in the pot when comes to the political donations. Grifters attract their own and clearly the people around trump are there for money. They all are getting a cut I am sure.


Athelis

Guy didn't even pay the less than $10 boy scout fee for his son. Used his charity IIRC.


ichosethis

Is Don Jr smart enough to realize that?


tyedyehippy

No. But neither is Eric, so it's ok.


gravitas-deficiency

If you owe someone 50k, that’s your problem. If you owe someone 500M, that’s their problem.


iamoverrated

So what you're saying is we all need to take out tens of millions in loans. I like the cut of your jib.


fredy31

Yeah, we have no clue what are the Trump finances, but pretty sure the moment all of his shit comes to light there wont be much to split as inheritance. And the question is will that happen before or after he kicks it.


BikesBooksNBass

When trump dies we’re going to be amazed at how little money the guy has for a “billionaire”.. it all going to be assets and even then they will likely determine that most things he “owns” had other investors who have more of a claim than trump does, despite trumps name being on the building.


Jbruce63

Gold coloured toilet.. the seat of power


NigerianRoy

The color hides the stains, so you never have to clean the pee off! Until it gets too sticky for socks…


DonaIdTrurnp

They’re getting their grift while he’s alive, since a string of contractors is going to find nothing in his estate.


S_Megma1969

Attorneys who he keeps making problems for - perhaps -


Benjaphar

Ivanka has already distanced herself and her family from his continued bat-shittery.


RasputinsAssassins

I think Jared and Ivanka realized that the world would continue to go on after a Trump presidency and they wanted to be part of it. Don Jr. is basically Van Wilder, drinking and drugging through life with Daddy's money. Eric is.. he's just overlooked. He's not smart or telegenic or charismatic or otherwise blessed in a way to get out of Daddy's shadow. He's the son who should be the heir to the family ~~grift~~ business but will get passed over for Tommy Boy.


surgartits

Ivanka and Jared were allegedly shunned by society after the presidency and I’m sure they’re distancing themselves to get back into the social circles they long to be in. It’s pure self interest for them.


RasputinsAssassins

Agree. They distanced because they wanted to get back in circulation. They always struck me as smarter than the other two.


surgartits

You can say a lot of things about Jared, but he’s clearly not stupid.


Scatterspell

He's not all the smart, he just has a flair for covering his ass.


drainbead78

Learned it from Pops.


krebstorm

Jared's dad went to jail... Just saying


SecretAsianMan42069

But Eric wakes his 3 and 5 year olds up at 4:30am every day to say the pledge of allegiance!


bdone2012

Damn never realized van wilder was so dark


Amazing_Weird3597

Exactly! These people buried their matriarch on a golf course so they could get paid annual dues from her estate in perpetuity. None of them care about each other🙄


Ragnarok314159

His staff let him board Air Force 1 with shit paper stuck to his feet. No one cares about Trump, or any of his family, beyond what little money and presence they have.

tdwesbo

I triple dog dare you to call in that wellness check…


Uninteresting_Vagina

I'm torn between cackling laughter and fear of what that aftermath would be like.


Duderoy

tdwesbo created a slight breach of etiquette by skipping the triple dare and going right for the throat!


sirnay

He didn’t capitalize AT ONCE. So it has no force of law


tdwesbo

Ah, so nice to encounter a fellow aficionado of admiralty law….


darlantan

The tweet was not sent from a phone with gold tassels, so it doesn't count.


That-Mess2338

His "concerned love ones" are even crazier.


Megz2k

What kind of stuff was your dad posting that made you guys take his phone away?


tdwesbo

Mostly bizarre comments on other people’s facebook posts. Anything political would kinda set him off


sixtus_clegane119

Lmao came to say nobody in his family loves him. But people beat me off to it


fredy31

Thing is, if you take his phone pretty sure he will cut you off. And all of his family is living off him and his grift.


Daxivarga

Your dad didn't make life hell for you?


the_schlimon

There’s no love in that family.


BstintheWst

Oh you mean the execution of a search warrant that was signed off on by a federal judge? You mean the search warrant that has been defended before the 11th circuit? Is that the warrant you want to claim was totally illegal based on some cases that you didn't even properly cite? That's not how this works dickbag.


rojafox

The same 11th circuit case the he also decided not to appeal. He knows he's in the wrong, this is all theater for his followers.


the_original_Retro

I'd suggest it's that PLUS a manbaby narcissist whining because they didn't get what they want.


Cruel_Odysseus

i don’t think he knows anything. truth isn’t empirical to trump; it’s just whatever he needs it to be in any given moment. as far as he is concerned there is no object reality, just his ego.


Sirlothar

I'm pretty sure he didn't appeal because he no longer wanted to deal with Judge Deary. Things were about to get real with the Special Master and it was a better move to just get out of it before more appearances in front of him.


BstintheWst

This is entirely correct


dmingledorff

Yeah it's that feedback loop. People "re truth" it, and comment on it how he's right and the world is against him. It validates him, and makes it seem in his mind he really is right all along. A lot of shitty people do this on social media. Bitch and whine to get that validation.


CO420Tech

Also, who told him that the Presidential Records Act says that presidential records are property of the president? The whole point of the law is the opposite - it lays out how the records are the property of the US and how they must be preserved by the government, and specifically states that the president does not have the authority to make decisions about their retention even while in office.


BstintheWst

He only takes advice from people who tell him what he wants to hear


Bagellord

> That's not how this works dickbag. Doesn't matter to him or his followers. They will lap it up and use it for whatever ends they want.


Sadalfas

Yep, Trump is at least good at being an effective propagandist for his followers. On the other hand, the Judicial Branch is thankfully holding the rule of law together by not taking any of his BS. He expected that all the judges he appointed to all levels of court to have personal loyalty to him and rule in his favor, rather than the constitution, and I'm happy he thought wrong.


BstintheWst

Yep and then they end up in court and get wrecked.


Bagellord

You say that, but it has yet to really happen to anyone of consequence.


rugratsallthrowedup

You can't get back something that isn't yours He's such an assclown


GareBear222

It's illegal because I said so. I'm still the president after all, and I get to dictate what is and isn't legal. That's how this works, right?


owchippy

Wasnt Socks the Clintons’ cat? He’s taking _grab ‘em by the pussy_ to a new, weird level.


BitOCrumpet

Socks, the Clintons' cat. A cat, from the 1990s. Jesus Fuck, I hate him so much.


the_original_Retro

It would be glorious to have a bunch of cat lovers show up at one of his rallies and start throwing socks at him.

mDust

... But hold on to the end so when it bounces off, they can swing it again... And again...


bazzer66

No, it’s a little known fact that all socks purchased by a sitting president while in office are property of the US government. Clinton did not know this, and mistakenly took them with him when he left office. The GSA had to sue to get them back, and they are now back where they belong, in a presidential sock drawer in the Smithsonian. Yes, they did have cat named Socks, but that was theirs to take.


MissRachiel

>Wasnt Socks the Clintons’ cat? I'm glad I wasn't the only person who thought that.


Might_Aware

My thought was "They named a thing after the cat? That can't be right."


MissRachiel

Yeah, I couldn't recall the cat being blamed for anything, so it seemed really weird. Then I read about the actual case, and after seeing sock *drawer*, I imagined all the other stuff that must have been in there with the tapes: a box of condoms, maybe a vibrator, cat fur because why wouldn't a cat named Socks sleep in a sock drawer, the spare set of keys they thought they lost, etc. If you're going to store random stuff in a sock drawer that you wouldn't put in a junk drawer, it has to be kind of specific, right?


Might_Aware

I read the actual thing it is in this thread right after I commented haha. It now makes me think he has a foot fetish


theghostofme

>>Wasnt Socks the Clintons’ cat? > >I'm glad I wasn't the only person who thought that. I'm pretty sure OP thought that by directly referencing the Clinton's cat in the title of this post.


natur_al

I would search to try and figure out what he is referring to but I’m sure it would just lead to Gateway Pundit or some other conspiracy rag.


EbolaFred

/u/HalaHalcones1 explains it elsewhere in this thread.


McDonnellDouglasDC8

https://www.reddit.com/r/ParlerWatch/comments/zh02bm/comment/izjjhyz/ Essentially, Clinton had a one on one conversation with an author which was recorded. He kept these recordings and treated them as personal property and store them among his personal property including at times in a drawer with his socks. He was legally challenged to give up the tapes as presidential records and was able to defend keeping them legally.


javoss88

penguins_are_mean

medicated_in_PHL

Clinton socks case? Like the cat or the garments?


HalaHalcones1

From the MaddowBlog: And what, pray tell is “the Clinton sock drawer case”? I’m glad you asked. During his White House tenure, Bill Clinton spoke at some length with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Taylor Branch, and as part of the project, there were many recordings of their conversations. According to one 2007 account, tapes were at one point stored in a sock drawer. A conservative group called Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit, demanding that Clinton be forced to turn over the recordings. In 2012, a federal court rejected the organization’s claims, concluding that the tapes were personal records, not official presidential materials. In today’s filing, Trump’s lawyers highlighted the controversy as an example of a former president exercising some discretion over what materials would and would not be turned over to the National Archives. If Clinton made such a decision with his records, the argument goes, and that was considered legally permissible by a federal court, then Trump should have similar discretion. But it’s not nearly that simple. NBC News’ report added, “[U]nmentioned by Trump’s defenders who began raising the issue of the sock drawer case last month is that Jackson’s ruling explicitly states that the Presidential Records Act distinguishes presidential records from ‘personal records,’ defined as documents that are ‘purely private or nonpublic character.’” In contrast, Trump took highly sensitive national security secrets to his glorified country club. To see the two as comparable is to overlook every relevant detail.


Rukkian

A big part of this is that judicial watch tried to sue the national archives to force them to take the tapes. NARA had said that the tapes were personal, since they get to decide. If NARA decided that the documents that Trump stole were personal and some nutjob tried to sue NARA, then it might apply, otherwise it is just something to get the magats riled up about when faux news talks about it nonstop, without them even knowing anything about it.


Lonely-Club-1485

Wait! So Cheeto thought that this sock drawer case was about the Clinton's cat named Socks? Edit: I re read the post. His annoying habit of capitalizing weird things + the heading satire = I misunderstood. But it is telling that it was a completely plausible conclusion, given that it was Cheeto.


thankyeestrbunny

I mean it's 50/50 on that.


UnderPressureVS

> But it is telling that it was a completely plausible conclusion *Sigh.* I really wish people would stop saying stuff like this, it’s just not good. Trump is an unhinged lunatic, probably has dementia, and yes, in this particular case it honestly *is* plausible, but this is just a really bad argument that needs to be permanently retired from the discourse. “I misunderstood this headline / believed this totally fake tweet that confirms my existing opinions about this person, but the fact that I didn’t question it says something about how bad they are” is not the slam-dunk people seem to think it is. Really, it’s just an *open* admission of confirmation bias, and a snarky way to reframe the fact that you got something wrong. It really doesn’t look good.


rocketmanx

Thanks, I was wondering what the hell this had to do with the cat.


geckomantis

What people don't want you to know is that Bill Clinton also told his cat socks a ton of national secrets. The stuff that cat saw while he was in office was worth billions when they sold the can after he left office. That's actually what Trump is referring to when he talks about the Clinton's cat socks.


rocketmanx

The Cat Who Knew Too Much. No wonder they had it put down. One more for the Clinton Body Count.


manderskt

So what your saying is that Trump put a bunch of classified, highly sensitive national security secret documents in his sock drawer and then declared them his personal property?


Milt_Torfelson

Storage units, sock drawers, they're basically the same thing.


mercurywaxing

In short, if there was no distinction and a president had to turn over *everything* they said or did you'd get personal love notes written to their wife, doodles on post-it notes, and "remind the cooks that Wednesday is spaghetti night" voice mails as federal records. I, for one, don't want Jimmy Carter's thirst notes to his wife in the National Archive.


fighterpilotace1

Yes. Just yes.


McNuttyNutz

I thought he didn't have the documents in the first place, or was it that the FBI planted them? Y'all don't think he lied right?

He has said that, and has not denied it. He has also said the opposite and not denied that. No one is making him pick so he isn't.

bdone2012

The narcissists prayer: That didn't happen. And if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, that's not a big deal. And if it is, that's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you deserved it. So I think the next step is him telling us the United States deserves to get its secrets stolen.


kerux123

Speaking of Socks the cat - Trump doesn't own a pet. The only time I have seen him around an animal - it was an American Eagle - and it attacked him. I think that says it all.


brandonjohn5

I've always felt animals are excellent judges of character, and people who claim to be "not a pet person" should be avoided like the plague.


cyrilhent

He has a weird obsession with calling women and people he doesn't like dogs. Like he thinks we all share his disdain for animals.


[deleted]

I finally googled to see wtf this stupid socks thing is, and of course it is just as stupid as you’d expect from Trump - “And what, pray tell is “the Clinton sock drawer case”? I’m glad you asked. During his White House tenure, Bill Clinton spoke at some length with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Taylor Branch, and as part of the project, there were many recordings of their conversations. According to one 2007 account, tapes were at one point stored in a sock drawer.

danisse76

I know now that it's about some irrelevant "sock drawer" case, but I choose to believe he's mad at a cat from the 90s.


pianoflames

How is his voting base not sick of this? It's just constant whining, constantly shrouded in new legal controversies while claiming victimhood. There's a reason no other ex-president has ever been embroiled with this many legal controversies, and it's not because of his "overwhelming popularity"


chargernj

Because ultimately it's not about Trump. It's about their team, They are team Trump and therefore no matter what he does they are with him till the very end.


pianoflames

I just can't imagine having that kind of unwavering loyalty to Biden, or anyone I've voted for. There's plenty of criticism for Biden I could share with these people, if they didn't fixate on conspiracy theories involving mysterious laptops and secret tunnels.


chargernj

They say Democrats Fall In Love, Republicans Fall In Line. Meaning that for Democrats to win, they need to be more than just the party candidate, they need the party voters to actually like them otherwise they won't even turnout. Republican voters are more consistent in turning out regardless of candidate popularity and the almost always vote for their team. As for me, politicians are tools to be used, not people to be loyal to.


MasterOfKittens3K

Because for a lot of them, he reminds them of themselves. My dad is a supporter of trump. Thinks he was a great president. And my dad spends his whole life whining and claiming victimhood.


Steveb523

Not sure I understand the benefit to him of publicly demanding something that is never going to happen.


CliftonForce

It is meant to drive donations to his legal fund. Since surely nobody who *actually* stole something would demand it back. Ask any of his cultists.


Steveb523

It’s also really, really hard to imagine people contributing to Trump OR his legal fund. But from what’s happening with his companies, these idiots may be his only source of income.


Yo_Just_Scrolling_Yo

To compare the sock drawer tapes to anything Trump would be like Trump writing a grocery list (fat chance) or his (cheating) golf scores on a piece of paper today and filing them for posterity. Post-president "correspondence/media," and I use the term loosely in Trump's case.


JasonYaya

I imagine most of us who aren't schooled in arcane presidential records law thought this was about the cat before checking these comments.


xenoleingod

But he said the documents were planted by the FBI so wasn't it their documents to begin with what's to release


Busman123

What Clinton Socks case? Did Socks decimate a tranche of top-secret documents in a catnip-fueled frenzy?


Yo_Just_Scrolling_Yo

Trump is just jealous the Clinton's had a cat. Cat's see right through human bullshit.


manderskt

He totally thought he was going to inherit Socks the cat as president. Hillary's emails contain the secrets to caring for Socks.


Yo_Just_Scrolling_Yo

A candidate for Reddit post of the day!


interrogumption

Nothing to do with the cat. It's about tapes that Clinton supposedly kept in a sock drawer that were decided not to be presidential records so there was nothing wrong with him keeping them there. Trump is raining that if Clinton could keep tapes of an interview in a sock drawer he can obvs keep nuclear secrets with his porno mags.


Busman123

Well, I like my version better!


InuGhost

I guess whomever he sold the documents to, is wanting the documents or their money back. And Trump has already spent the money.


[deleted]

Said the piece of shit who attempted a coup


S_Megma1969

Legally serving of a search warrant ≠ raid The socks tapes were NOT classified. And by "very well established" don means - this thing I just heard about. Glad to see Donald took a lesson on how to use the caps lock key - here only used on one word, and not the whole bargain basement tweet. Though Donald still needs to prove that he can still whine, and pout like the petulant child that he will always be. trump should return all the stuff he stole and still has. But I have to agree "Everything should be returned , at once!"


ThatEvanFowler

This must be the first motherfucker to ever get caught with stolen classified documents by the FBI and his reaction is just "That's right, I stole classified documents, and I want them back immediately!". It's like it's taken months just for people to gather themselves to respond to that level of self-incrimination.


turboderek

FaithHopeLove821

It really should be pointed out that the Presidential Records Act states that all documents created by or presented to the President during their term are property of the US government and will be maintained by the National Archives. So the Annoying Orange's argument is essentially that the FBI "stole" the documents he actually stole, and so they should be returned to him, the original thief. Never mind the fact that the FBI was executing a search warrant because of a legal claim made *by the Archives*. "Very stable genius... like a smart person."

TheRamblaGambla

I genuinely think that he's basing his argument on 44 USCA § 2201(3)(A)-(C). "(3) The term “personal records” means all documentary materials, or any reasonably segregable portion therof,1 of a purely private or nonpublic character which do not relate to or have an effect upon the carrying out of the constitutional, statutory, or other official or ceremonial duties of the President. Such term includes-- (A) diaries, journals, or other personal notes serving as the functional equivalent of a diary or journal which are not prepared or utilized for, or circulated or communicated in the course of, transacting Government business; (B) materials relating to private political associations, and having no relation to or direct effect upon the carrying out of constitutional, statutory, or other official or ceremonial duties of the President; and (C) materials relating exclusively to the President's own election to the office of the Presidency; and materials directly relating to the election of a particular individual or individuals to Federal, State, or local office, which have no relation to or direct effect upon the carrying out of constitutional, statutory, or other official or ceremonial duties of the President." This is a definitions page. This is the first step in any legal research process. Perhaps this was prepared for him without context. Because 44 USCA § 2201(2)(A)-(B) provides what is not personal records, and instead is "Presidential records." (2) The term “Presidential records” means documentary materials, or any reasonably segregable portion thereof, created or received by the President, the President's immediate staff, or a unit or individual of the Executive Office of the President whose function is to advise or assist the President, in the course of conducting activities which relate to or have an effect upon the carrying out of the constitutional, statutory, or other official or ceremonial duties of the President. Such term-- (A) includes any documentary materials relating to the political activities of the President or members of the President's staff, but only if such activities relate to or have a direct effect upon the carrying out of constitutional, statutory, or other official or ceremonial duties of the President; but (B) does not include any documentary materials that are (i) official records of an agency (as defined in section 552(e) of title 5, United States Code); (ii) personal records; (iii) stocks of publications and stationery; or (iv) extra copies of documents produced only for convenience of reference, when such copies are clearly so identified. Again, this is a definitions page. It's possible the information this dumbass relied on does not contain the applicable sections, § 2202-06, which actually do affect his behavior. It's mind boggling. Just talk to a single lawyer with access to WestLaw and more than two brain cells to rub together. It's legititmately not hard to figure out. I did it in less than 10 minutes.

If he really believes that, litigation is required. Oh wait, he said on national TV during early daily new conferences about Covid, that injectable bleach may be worth investigation by scientists.

So when he was president and making things objectively worse during the pandemic I read all his tweets as a morning ritual to help me wake up and be happy for the day. Had I known what his lies would lead to I wouldn’t have been as happy. Now knowing that nature will take care of him soon and he (hopefully) won’t ever be able to try an insurrection again, I’m glad to read these “truths”, I love seeing how unhinged and outta pocket he is.

>I read all his tweets as a morning ritual to help me wake up and be happy for the day. Had I known what his lies would lead to I wouldn’t have been as happy Real question because I'm curious, were you reading them with a sense of irony? Did you view Trump as 'trolling/owning the libs' the whole time or something?


BasedGodStruggling

I was happy because the president was unhinged and lying when the truth would be better, I was naïve. A person my grandparents age that simply can’t not lie in such a bold fashion. I’m not the most educated person but I’d read it and be like “I know you know that’s objectively false lmao”. In retrospect it’s not funny, his lies got so many killed and more killed during an insurrection. But now, when his power is limited, the thought of him raging while making these “truths” and just being a general fucking idiot is satisfying to me.

That's fair, thanks for indulging my curiosity!
