THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION AND ITS ACCOMPLICES

What is coming out now about the Trump Organization reminds me of the case of Bernie Madoff.  Everybody on Wall Street knew for a long time that behind Madoff’s front organization was a Ponzi scheme. Nobody did anything about it until the house of cards collapsed. They were all accomplices and their neglect was criminal. Now it’s coming out that the shady and illicit dealings of the Trump Organization was a well-known fact ever since Trump’s real estate business moved into Manhattan with the help of Roy Cohen, himself a mafioso lawyer (formally Joseph McCarthy’s right-hand man). That was back in the 1960s. The New York city establishment didn’t do anything. Trump wasn’t just a Republican during those years. He was a Republican and a Democrat and had close links with top leaders in both parties. Wasn’t that criminal neglect…. at best?
