    By your definition, every investigation is a “witch hunt” ... you seem to believe you need to have all the information pre baked before an investigation is undertaken.

    the terminology “witch hunt” is a characterization or declaration by the self righteous investigated subject, who wants to cast doubt on the legitimacy of the investigation. it is branding to convince the masses that institutions don’t matter, that sworn fealty to one lousy corrupt human being is more important.

    An investigation starts with a crime. There isnt anything even alleged.

    that’s not true

    “District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. opened the investigation in 2018 to examine alleged hush-money payments made to two women who, during Trump’s first presidential campaign, claimed to have had affairs with him years earlier. The probe has since expanded, and now includes the Trump Organization's activities more broadly, said the people familiar with the matter. Vance’s office has suggested in court filings that bank, tax and insurance fraud are areas of exploration.”

    Trump may not be worth as much as he claims but he doesn't need to embezzle p*rn star pay off money. Not $150K

    So you aren't using evidence on which to base your claim just what you feel is correct about Trump's finances and what you imagine would be Trump's actions in response.

    If a president sought sanctity in a foreign country.
    With all the confidential information he was privy to.
    You wouldn't support the CIA doing its job.
    If Obama went to look live in Russia or China.
    The reaction would be the same.

    Right. So we have now established there are crimes alleged. You are saying there is no need to investigate because you have personally concluded trump is sufficiently rich that there is no need to investigate.

    and that’s how it works right? Determinations on whether something should be investigated are made based on your subjective flimsy beliefs.

    that is the point. You have no idea what the investigators know, what they have found, what they are looking for.

    You have simply concluded that should do nothing. That is simply not how criminal or civil investigation work.

    If he gave her a $130,000 "gift" he needs to show that on his taxes.

    and you would concede that it would be a crime if Trump falsified or inflated property values in order to get tax breaks or loans, correct?

    those are the kinds of things that are being investigated. You somehow seem fixated on stormy Daniels payoff. That’s the tip of the iceberg.

    What did you say? See that's the problem with you. When you get intellectually out classed you resort to this. Next time listen you might actually learn something intelligent. So maybe in the future you can be a better poster

    He definitely does if he has more debt than assets which he most likely has from NYT reporting of what we have of his tax returns.

    Then don't hold Trump's water while sucking his dick.

    You obviously do as you have spent hours upon hours on this message board sucking his dick pretending he is some angel who doesn't commit fraud left and right.
