    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    He’s fucked.


    The original article contains 275 words, the summary contains 2 words. Saved 99.99%. I’m alive!

      Bad human

      2/275 would be 99.38% (repeating of course) saved. Please update your human code with a math lesson module. Your humor module works just fine though.

        I think this makes them a good human… Since like 99% of humans are bad at math it makes sense since they would make this mistake…

      Of all the judges this engoron guy is the only one that seems able to deal with them as you would any other scum bag. Everyone else is so busy trying to act impartial they’re paralysed by inaction.

        Only possible explanation I can come up with is that it’s an alt and he posted from the wrong account.

        There’s really no other way; I mean, squid doesn’t even have it bookmarked, how could someone else get it

        The NY judgement alone is $78k in interest per day until Trump pays it.

        I read the other day that Trump had about $550 million in liquid cash & he can’t touch $50M of it without other loans coming due. Loans he can’t pay & pay the judgement at the same time.

        E. Jean Carroll is about to sue him again.

          There has to be some atrophy there surely.

          Like imagine you’ve been working hard all these months and donating whatever you can afford… surely there’s a non-zero number of people each week that think “you know what, there’s better ways I could spend this money”.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
