 Donald Trump might not realize it yet, but his whole world just BLEW UP.

A partial summary judgment in his NY tax fraud case has made the dissolution of the Trump Org mandatory. 

And there's still going to be a trial - starting Monday - to determine how big the fine's going to be.

Want to know how to destroy Donald Trump?

This will begin to undermine him in ways he can't fathom. His whole empire is about to shatter.

 @fcf6e9eb let's be honest, it probably won't do anything significant to him. He hasn't been a businessman in the classic sense of the phrase in a long time.

 @fcf6e9eb What’s to prevent him from moving his shit to another state? Explain it to me like I’m English major.

Wake me up when Trump is flat broke and in prison.
Teflon Don gets away with everything.

 @fcf6e9eb Let's not forget the plucky new Congresswoman from NY who had a few questions. https://www.businessinsider.com/aoc-questions-michael-cohen-2019-sparked-ny-ag-trump-lawsuit-2022-9

 @fcf6e9eb 

Trump has Chinese, Russian, Saudi Arabian, & Turkish billionaire donors, plus #KochNetwork, to support him.

He's shown a willingness to sell national secrets too.

He won't be poor for long.

 @fcf6e9eb Trump was born extremely rich. He never had to work a day in his life, and he certainly never had to crime.

He gratuitously chose to do crime.

He should receive sentence multipliers as a result.

I’m thinking Karma will be extra busy in all the different jurisdictions. But I happen to know she’s been working out, getting in shape and about to ready to see to business. She was born for this jackass of giant proportions.

 @fcf6e9eb should be interesting to see what kind of effect this has on his otherwise robust mental health and capacity to form coherent sentences
