Sixteen Year-Old Male Escapes From War-Torn Land to U.S. Using "Chain-Migration."

Boy gets to come to U.S. because of older sister already being present. Once given a green card he goes back overseas and return with his sweeheart.

Now what's going to happen when they have kids? Those kids will become U.S. citizens by birth. And their kids will have kids, who will also becomes U.S. citizens by birth.

Elizabeth Christ and Friedrich Trump, Donald Trump's grandparents, both immigrated to America from a part of Germany with a troubled history. Wikimedia Commons

In 1885, when Friedrich immigrated, he joined his sister Katherine, who had immigrated to New York a year earlier. "Chain-migration", which Donald Trump has denounced, is what enabled his family to be here in the first place.

When I first read the entirety 2018 NYT article on Trumps fraudulent business practices (super long very detailed piece) I was floored.. it detailed everything... and he is as dirty as it gets.. then it gets a Pulitzer Prize.. then Trump sues his niece over the revelations, now Trump and family are being sued and its for most of his marbles. With interest and penalties the tax liabilities will be significant enough to strip him of his wealth.
@pdqsailor1 Yes, that very detailed investigative journalism was quite eye-opening!

I think his financial troubles will only increase...when is his big debt payment due? He'll default on that, which would seem to trigger sales of his $-losing resorts around the world.

Then his business & personal tax problems here in the US...and class-action suits...

@SomeMichGuy He is not long on cash. One large call on him could collapse his house of cards and finish him off permanently.
@pdqsailor1 I remember their analysis that he has had to infuse his resorts with his personal cash, and I am hoping that you are correct...

And that the call you are predicting occurs.

@SomeMichGuy My prediction was made after reading the article and every single step since has come to fruition.. now it has to go to trial. For civil matters it is a preponderance of evidence that is required.. a lower standard than a criminal trial for a conviction.. I have not met too many jurists or judges that are sympathetic to a crooked billionaire.. he goes to trial he is done.. and the state of NY - has no reason to make a deal with him. The conclusion I came to when reading the article was that he was a dead man walking..
@pdqsailor1 I thought so, too, but Slippery Donnie has gotten out of so many reckonings that I hesitate to rejoice until the judgments start pouring in.

I think a wrongful death class action might form...

@SomeMichGuy remember the line from Trading Places? “Seems to me that the best way to get back at Rich folks is to turn them into poor folks. “. I think the NY AG saw the movie.
@pdqsailor1 Yes! Great line & true.
