    He’s been sued 220 times for the 100 days he has been in office. Lawyers are really expensive. (Well unless you blackmail them.)

      Fun fact! Tariffs aren’t collected by the IRS, they’re collected by Customs and Border Protection, a sibling organization to ICE

      My ex is a lawyer, I know stuff I could blackmail her with, nothing bad just personal stuff that you’d not be happy being public. I wouldn’t dare try it, even if I was inclined too.

      Blackmail is illegal regardless if what you’re after. At the very least I’d lose my job.

      You can’t really blackmail lawyers unless they are actually corrupt. Never mind, they’re his lawyers, of course they are.
