    Yeah, so the fraud is okay, right? Everybody made money from the fraud, therefore nobody was harmed! Fraud can’t be illegal if everybody involved wins!

    —Trump’s lawyers’ actual defense strategy.

    These people went to law school, and clearly did not get their money’s worth.

      Also, “everyone commits crime but only our client is being held accountable. These is egregiously biased!”

      This is the equivalent of switching price tags so that your $100 LEGO set rings up as $1, and then saying “but we paid for it!”

        Also, you turn around and sell that $1 ring to someone else for $100. And you tell everybody it’s a $300 ring, so they think you have more money than you do.

        Yours and mine combined is essentially what happened.
