What makes either of you think that's where she will be buried? She's his sister, not his wife, so I doubt he'll have any say in where she's buried.

Trump will file to delay all of his trials because he will be in mourning. Maybe he’ll set up multiple multi-day memorial services for his sister stretching into Dec., 2024.

I hope she specified her burial desires in her will. She has 3 surviving descendants, her son by her first husband and his two children.

If trump were to be willing to spend money to control where she is buried they might not be able to afford to fight him in court.

I was not aware that Trump had a sister. If she has not been out there pushing Trump's political career he may not care where she is buried.

She was a an Appellate Judge before she was not - she "retired" just as an investigation was beginning into her alleged tax evasion. her "retirement" ended the investigation.

It's actually kind of hard for me to believe that Trump has never evaded taxes.

I missed this. Gifted link. Wonder who wrote this. This is more coherent than his usually rally ramblings.

Trump calls political enemies ‘vermin,’ echoing dictators Hitler, Mussolini. On Veterans Day, the former president vowed to “root out” his liberal opponents, drawing backlash from historians who say his rhetoric is reminiscent of authoritarians
“We pledge to you that we will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections,” Trump said toward the end of his speech, repeating his false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. “They’ll do anything, whether legally or illegally, to destroy America and to destroy the American Dream.”

Trump went on further to state: “the threat from outside forces is far less sinister, dangerous and grave than the threat from within. Our threat is from within. Because if you have a capable, competent, smart, tough leader, Russia, China, North Korea, they’re not going to want to play with us.”

Steven Cheung, a Trump campaign spokesman, told The Post “those who try to make that ridiculous assertion are clearly snowflakes grasping for anything because they are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome and their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.”

New: The accountants for Trump’s Truth Social say its "negative cash flows and recurring losses" raise "substantial doubts" about its ability to stay in operation. Lost $23 million in the first six months of the year; made only $2 million in sales

Couldn't stop? They STILL complain about it. They even made up t-shirts, that's how offended they were.

‘Substantial doubt’ Trump’s Truth Social will survive, accountants warn

https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/14/business ... index.html
Former President Donald Trump’s social media venture Truth Social is burning cash and piling up losses so rapidly that accountants warn it might not survive unless it soon completes a long-delayed merger, according to corporate filings.

Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), which is chaired by the former president, has lost $31.6 million since the company launched in early 2021, SEC filings released Monday show.

Truth Social launched in early 2022 as an alternative to Twitter, which is now known as X and is owned by billionaire Elon Musk. At the time, Trump had been banned from what was then Twitter for breaking the platform’s rules on promoting violence during the January 6 riot. His account has since been reinstated.

But Trump’s social media platform has struggled to gain popularity, with its 861,000 monthly active users on iOS and Android as of October amounting to barely 1% of those on X, according to Similarweb.

With cash levels dwindling, Trump Media’s management and accountants are warning there is no guarantee the company will stay afloat.

“TMTG has suffered negative cash flows and recurring losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern,” the filing said, citing an assessment from an independent accounting firm and financial statements.

Trump Media’s management believes capital raised from the merger will be “sufficient” to retire debt and fund operations, the filing said.

Still, as of the end of June management had “substantial doubt” that the company will have “sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due,” according to a filing.
