Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

He's a billionaire... He can easily afford 10x that...

Edit: maybe I should've said 1000x times that in order to hit home that it was a joke. Or just an /s. Lol

He can't. He's not as rich as he claims. This case showed that. He's also deep in debt.

The only valuable thing about trumps brand is that people think he's successful. Everything he ever touched business wise went the way of the dodo.

I agree. The question is whether or not that knowledge will seep through the cracks of the MAGA bubble.

... is the lie that is going to get every Trump property in New York state confiscated.

A person with greater liabilities than assets is not rich, let alone a billionaire.

Like how he’s begging his supporters to pay his legal fees and his campaign is practically out of money.

I mean, if you had millions of rubes willing to empty their pockets if you do much as sneeze, why wouldn't you save your money and let the gullible foot the bill for you?

It's scummy AF, but I can't say I don't understand why Trump would do that even IF he had the money he claims to have.

He is not a billionaire lol.
