What if this longtime family retainer has some scores to settle?

[EffieBlack]

Weisselberg has known Trump since he was a very young man just out of college. I suspect that as he grew up up and took over for his father, little Donnie, if he stayed true to form, may not have treated Mr. Weisselberg with, let’s just say, the utmost kindness and respect.

If that’s the case, it should be very interesting watching the chickens come home to roost.

And it’s pretty hard to throw your CFO of 40+ years under the bus without him dragging you under there with him ...

1. retainee. The fee (salary) is a retainer. tRump retained Weisselberg, so tRump is the retainer. nt

5. Thank you, but my choice of word is correct

Retainer: “A servant, especially one who has worked for a person or family for a long time.”

“Example: Faithful family retainer”

6. Ah, thanks for reminding me of that version of the word. . . . nt

2. there's just no way this isn't really, really bad for donnie.

a bit of such drama wouldn't surprise me, but it hardly matters.

having decided to burn all bridges in donnie's world, and having been granted immunity, weisselberg will spill all the beans.

and i'm pretty sure there are an awful lot of beans to spill....

3. I don't think much of someone willing to work for the trumps for 40+ years ....

but hopefully he reveals what a crook trump is.

4. Seemed that nearly everyone Nixon stepped on,

on his way up the ladder, paid back, 'a kind of tribute', as he was forced down the ladder.

7. Given the personalities of the Trumps, it would be odd if he didn't

get kicked in the nuts a few times.

8. Hopefully Weisselberg's immunity causes him to think....

..... carefully and be completely honest about past trDump fraudulent behavior so as omissions do not bring jeopardy to Weisselberg's and cause his immunity to become null and void, thus implicating him and bring him jail time.

9. I don't really care..Do U?

as long as Trump & co ends up in a prison suit..
