As a failing developer, Trump borrowed $2B+ from Deutsche Bank. After Trump took office, Deutsche shifted into damage-control mode, issuing an unusual edict to its Wall Street employees: Do not publicly utter the word “Trump.”
by @davidenrich #Maddow nyti.ms/2Fdha7U
Rosemary Vrablic, a managing director at Deutsche Bank, attended Trump's inaugural as a VIP guest. Vrablic, who met Trump when he sued Deutsche in 2008, steered $300M+ in loans to Trump in the years before the 2016 election [and $285M to Jared Kushner in Oct 2016].
#Maddow
"Deutsche's commercial real estate group, with Justin Kennedy now in a senior role, kept lending to Trump. Occasionally, Justin's father, Justice Kennedy [who in 2017 retired early so Trump could appoint Kavanaugh], stopped by Deutsche’s offices to say hello to the team."
#Maddow
"Justice Kennedy and Trump had a connection, one that Trump was quick to note moments after his first address to Congress in Feb 2017. As he made his way out of the chamber, he paused to chat with the justice: 'Say hello to your boy. Special guy.'"
#Maddow
For 20 years, Deutsche Bank’s leaders repeatedly saw red flags [FRAUD] surrounding Trump – a disastrous bond sale, a loan that relied on a banker’s forged signature, wild exaggerations of Trump’s wealth – but they continued lending him millions.

Trump's former NSA accused him of treasonous conduct –– “aiding and abetting” Russia's attack on the 2020 election –– and the story was blown away by the never-ending firehose of craziness and disinformation generated by Trump and his crew.

Feds are seizing masks and other #COVID19 supplies from hospitals without a word.

“Federal officials sweep in without warning to expropriate our supplies... Are they stockpiling it? Distributing it? Will we get any of it back? We can’t get any answers.”latimes.com/politics/story…
“Trump and other White House officials, including Jared Kushner, claim that the federal government is using a 'data-driven approach' to procure [STEAL] medical supplies from hospitals and direct them where they are most needed [TO HELP TRUMP'S REELECTION].”
!! Chairs of two key House panels are demanding answers about Jared Kushner's role “in the acquisition, distribution of, or federally directed sale of any form of PPE or medical supplies and equipment to be used for the diagnosis or treatment of COVID-19.”nbcnews.com/politics/white…

It took 70 days from the initial notification on Jan 3 for Trump to treat coronavirus not as a hoax, but as a lethal force poised to kill thousands. But by then, critical time had been squandered and opportunities to mitigate the pandemic were lost.washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
Because of Trump and his admin's failures over the first 70 days of the coronavirus crisis, the US will likely go down as the country that was supposedly best prepared to fight a pandemic but ended up sustaining heavier casualties than any other nation.
For 70 days, Trump lied to the public about coronavirus.

By the time he proclaimed himself a wartime president and coronavirus the enemy, the US was on track to see more of its people die than in the wars of Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq combined.

Schiff: Trump’s dead of night decision to fire ICIG Michael Atkinson is another blatant attempt to gut the independence of the Intelligence Community and retaliate against those who dare to expose presidential wrongdoing.
