    How much does anyone want to bet this will backfire when Eastman and Ghouliani flip and throw him under the bus? I think Ghouliani already entered into a proffer agreement, so he may have already decided not to trust the least loyal boss I’m the world.

      It still amazes me how Trump keeps finding people that’ll work for him and somehow expect him to stay loyal to them, despite all evidence to the contrary.

        Because they think they are smarter than the rubes who already got duped, are sure they’re one of the ‘good ones’ in trumps eyes and won’t get fucked over, or want to be a name in the right wing grift and are rolling the dice on coming out ahead once they can ebeg to all the rubes who support these chucklefucks.

        It’s like gambling on a stock. You can buy in on the way up and as long as you bail at the right time you can come out on top. Stay just a little too long, though, and you’ll come away worse than you started.

          Any examples of people who didn’t get burnt and ended up ahead?

            Well… me, I guess. I’ve made about a hundred thousand, here or there, but I’ll admit I’m an outlier most likely.
