The most uncomfortable thing about Trump's presidency has always been what it says about America. He is basically all of our worst and most absurd traits manifest in one person.

— Ben Rhodes (@brhodes) September 28, 2020

“Trump does not merely stand accused of financial deception. His entire persona — his face to the world — is a deception. He not only tells lies; he inhabits a lie. As a successful business leader and anti-corruption outsider, Trump is a complete fraud.”https://t.co/hQ6ctVZUAs

I don't think Trump is broke. Aggressive accounting, depreciation etc help him zero out his tax liabilities. This is what developers do, thanks to the preferential fiscal treatment of real estate. Refinancing is not income, that's the real scandal.

Despite (or perhaps, because of) the collapse in trust due to the IM Bill, a deal between the EU and UK can still be done. But it will come at a cost. And BJ will have to pay it.
