All the revelations swirling around now about Trump's financial shenanigans--today has been dizzying!--might be a big first step for the scales to fall from their eyes and lead to them realising they've been had. They'd best do something, or their party could end up being irretrievably ruined.
And this is just the first in a series of NY Times articles on Trump's finances and financial shenanigans. I see another Pulitzer Prize in this for the NY Times before this is over.
