Start with the CBS merger lawsuit. Where CBS "settled" a case they couldn't lose, for $16 million.
In order to get federal approval for their proposed $8 billion merger.
CBS paid Trump $16 million. Trump got the merger approved.
This is what would usually be called a quid-pro-quo.
You didn't read what happend to the statute
The city donated it to the Jefferson School African American Heritage Center, which has been responsible for it ever since and leads the Swords Into Plowshares project.
Which is what I said.

Better start contributing to that now.Nothing has been built yet
Trump still has an opportunity to do it right
Coordinate with Congress and DC Historical Commissions on scope and design details
If Trump refuses, tear down what he has managed to build and do it right
Better start contributing to that now.
Better get on that right away.We don’t have to contribute to tearing it down
Just ask Mexicans pissed off over the Gulf of America
Ask Canadians ticked off over his 51st State taunts
Even Greenland will contribute to tearing down the great TRUMP Ballroom
And then melted down.
Your semantics game can go lick a sweaty ballsack.

All you did was post criminally vandalized statues.
You claimed the "government" destroyed them.
And that's the lie you perpetrated, when I said, the "government" destroyed statues.
Wanna explain why you lied?
Sure. You are TRULY bothered by the renovation.
You hold every government structure with the utmost respect and demand they never be altered.
You are super fucked up that the Federal Reserve is doing significant renovations on 2 HQ buildings.
I wish you the best with your anxiety and depression over the renovations.
You must have been a mess when government statues were torn down
This thread is a joke. The new ballroom will be built, you didn't prove otherwise, the court gave it a green light.Sounds like you don’t know what the fuk you are babbling about
You mean like the Biden Crime Family?Um, no, it's called knowing Trump's long history of fraud, scheming, and self-dealing.
He will probably end up pardoning himself when he leaves because when the Democrats get back in, all the shit is going to be exposed.
Local government erected those statues at a time blacks couldn’t voteThat's some shitty reading comprehension there. It was tearing down government statues, not the government doing it, as referring to the government building that was the east wing.
We will see how far Trump gets on his majestic ballroom.This thread is a joke. The new ballroom will be built, you didn't prove otherwise, the court gave it a green light.
Local government erected those statues at a time blacks couldn’t vote
Local government tore them down when blacks could vote
That would be illegal wouldn’t it?The ones I linked were torn down by rioters.
The next president will use the ballroom with no qualms at all. He/she/it won't even bother to ask you about it.We will see how far Trump gets on his majestic ballroom.
Trump made it clear a President can tear things down without approval when he tore down the East Wing
Same applies to his ballroom
