Someone in Sarasota is bloviating against New York “prosecutorial misconduct.”
“The harder I fight for you, the harder they come after me."
“Murder’s OK. Human trafficking no problem. But fringe benefits — you can’t do that. . . .I have been fighting for you against the corrupt establishment — that’s all it is."
“I guess you’re not here to open an I.R.A.”—“Wall Street,” 1987:
"It's gonna be hard on you, but maybe, in a kind of screwed-up way, it’s the best thing that could have happened to you. Stop going for the easy buck, and produce something with your life.”

In “Trackdown: The End of the World” (CBS, 1958), when someone asks the sheriff how long he will let “this con man” called "Walter Trump" walk around town, “Trump" threatens, “Be careful son, I can sue you!”
