Question: Is Kevin O'Leary right?
1. Yes
2. No
3. I don't
He understands the matter more than most.
If you don't think this is going to hurt New York in the long run you are just putting your head in the sand.
Heaven forbid a rich white man that commits crimes gets held accountable for said crimes.He understands the matter more than most.

But it was an offense with no victim. Both parties were happy with the outcome. And the exact same thing happens every single day, all around the world. Odd that the judicial system decided with this specific case that it was suddenly illegal.It’s not like the government is just taking rich people’s money. This is a punishment for an offense in which he was found liable.
His argument only works if the entire judicial system is corrupt
He’s 100% correct. Real estate investor says it’s worth x amount, the bank does independent valuation and says it’s worth X amount. The two parties agree upon amount and the bank gives 50% loan, which is used to buy more real estate. THE BANK SIGNED OFF, I can’t stress that enough.
Anyone in real estate does this and has since beginning of time. It’s like selling a house, you ask top dollar and write up amazing description about the home. Not the best example, but comparable.
The AG set out on a personal vendetta against Trump, which is why he’s in this situation. I’m not a big fan of Trump, I wish he’d keep his mouth shut, but he brings this unwanted attention due to opposition. This is a bad look for NY. Trump did nothing wrong, in this situation. Not to mention, loan was payed back.
You said the quiet part out loud…100% democratic system found him liable.It’s not like the government is just taking rich people’s money. This is a punishment for an offense in which he was found liable.

Well if he didn’t commit crimes. It wouldn’t have mattered where he did business.You said the quiet part out loud…100% democratic system found him liable.
You sure about that? Open up your eyes - how many other real estate developers have been taken to court and fined in a victimless scenario? I’ll wait for your response…Well if he didn’t commit crimes. It wouldn’t have mattered where he did business.
Take Hitler out of it the Germans did a helleva job building an economy in the 1930s and the Audobon was one helleva achievement.

Audobon? That's a hella WOB I believeTake Hitler out of it the Germans did a helleva job building an economy in the 1930s and the Audobon was one helleva achievement.
Quick type didn't bother to look it up. Dahhhh...Audobon? That's a hella WOB I believe
How many other Real Estate developers take thousands to lawsuits to avoid paying their debts. The guy has used his fortune and the courts to bully his way through life. I’m sorry if I won’t cry any tears over the guy. Trump as he always does pushed the envelope way beyond anyone else. If he wouldn’t have behaved this way in the past it would have been a much smaller fine. He mocks the system of justice every chance he gets.You sure about that?

You’re not wrong about Trump. But this lawsuit is a joke and nothing more than a personal vendetta. Both those statements can be accurate.How many other Real Estate developers take thousands to lawsuits to avoid paying their debts.

You’re not wrong. But there is a saying karma is a bitch. He’s used his position, popularity, etc etc. to float the laws. Now his position , popularity, fortune, etc etc. got him in trouble a normal person would never have . Maybe a better saying is be poor and never get sued, but go to jail. Be rich and never go to jail, but always get sued.You’re not wrong about Trump. But this lawsuit is a joke and nothing more than a personal vendetta. Both those statements can be accurate.
Yes, 100% right. Valuations are done like this across the US and the globe. It's ridiculous. Trump obsession.
These ladies have less than 1% of the business acumen of O'Leary, and try to debate him on this issue. Laughable.
Soo... he is white so this is ok....Heaven forbid a rich white man that commits crimes gets held accountable for said crimes.
The party of law and order sure doesn't like law and order when it's a rich white dude.

This is banana republic type shit bro, be better.
That better? Still works.Heaven forbid a man that commits crimes gets held accountable for said crimes.

Being held accountable and gross overreach are two different things.That better? Still works.
I'm a fan of all criminals being held accountable for their actions. I know we won't see eye to eye on this because you enjoy playing "that guy" in these threads. So if that edited post doesn't work for ya, sorry not sorry.
Enjoy your day! It's my Friday, so I'm pretty ****ing happy about that.
