  Wait a minute. Trump's civil fraud verdict was based on the notion he
  systematically gave an incorrect valuation to his properties in order to
  deceive lenders (even though all lenders were repaid and none of them ever
  made complaints against him and all said they'd do business with him again).
  Now, the New York Times admits that reaching a proper valuation for Trump's
  buildings is a "guessing game".

Bullshit.  He lied.

For loans, he inflated his valuations.  For taxes, he lowered his

So when Trump takes out a loan and pays it back with interest, that's a
crime.

As Jon Stewart pointed out in his video Trump did pay the loan back
with interest but much less than he would have if he had given the
properties the proper valuation. Which amounted to a lot due to the
sums involved.

Shorted on taxes, cheated banks out of their profits... profits that COULD have been lent out to other New Yorkers, who didn't lie and cheat.

Trump cheated and made those that didn't cheat pick up the slack.

Yeah.  Not a good reason... but the reason is Merrick the Mild doesn't want to ruffle any feathers.

Do you know Garland's background?  If you did, you wouldn't even ask...

GOP extremists have long praised Garland. In 2017, after Trump fired James Comey, Mitch McConnell suggested that Garland become the FBI director.
>
“I have spoken with the president about it. I recommended Merrick Garland,” McConnell said in May 2017. He recited the propaganda line that Garland “was the prosecutor in the Oklahoma City bombing case.” (Garland was not. The lead prosecutor in the Oklahoma City bombing case was Joseph Hartzler, and how that lie gets circulated will be explained later.) McConnell added that Garland “would make it clear that President Trump will continue the tradition at the FBI of having an apolitical professional.”

McConnell is not the only Republican linked to Russian oligarchs to praise Garland. In 2010, when Garland was being considered for the Supreme Court, Republican operative Joseph DiGenova commended Garland as “a profoundly serious guy” who would be a great addition to the court.

In October 2021, Donald Trump praised Garland as “a good man” and said he was glad Garland was Attorney General.

Garland is a stooge.  God, I hope Jack Smith isn't one too...

Republicans love Garland.  They keep bringing him up for everything.
And I think we know why now.

  Who are you quoting?  I never said Garland is a stooge.
 

No, I said he was a stooge.  Republicans love him.  Trump loves him.
Why the fuck hasn't he been shit-canned?
