And once again Trump walks away from the wreckage, leaving others to take the blame

NEW YORK – Allen Weisselberg pleaded guilty Thursday to all 15 criminal charges in a scheme that paid him lavish corporate benefits in off-the-books payments from the Trump Organization without paying taxes on the perks.

The deal requires him to testify truthfully about the scheme if called as a government witness at the pending trial of the Trump Organization, which has also been charged in the scheme. But the agreement does not require Weisselberg to cooperate with prosecutors against former President Donald Trump himself, who has not been charged.

And hunter paid $2,000,000 in back taxes owed, but that's ok with you, eh?

@sunsporter1649 Fessed up for a mistake and took steps to accept responsibility and make restitution -- WEAK; LOSER, in the vernacular of a certain someone. Best you can do in your "what about" diversions? Branco hasn't had time to whip up a cartoon yet?

@dancingtongue Figure's you would call skipping out on $2,000,000 a mistake.

Any more bullschiff you want to spread around?

@sunsporter1649 Would you have preferred for him to keep the money? Trump has paid back taxes too.

@Lila15 Yeah, we know, everybody makes $2,000,000 "mistakes" and walks away scott free.

@sunsporter1649 But the point is he hasn't skipped -- paid it when told he was delinquent. Which is what most delinquent tax payers do to show the courts good faith, while negotiating a settlement/judgment on penalties. Plus the potential criminal investigation into all of his financial arrangements is still ongoing, so he hasn't walked away a free man yet.

@dancingtongue I promise not to hold my breath until hunter does time for anything, he is a full-up paid member of the demonocrat protection society

@sunsporter1649 Which must be why the Obama Administration originally initiated the investigation into his financial dealings.

@dancingtongue Some investigation, can't even find a laptop
