Bye Bye Trump Empire
Keeping in mind that the NYC piece doesn't touch on the past 15 years. When, ostensibly, Trump was struggling to hold on to the money handed to him.
I wonder if he reformed during those 15 years, and conducted himself and his business with honesty and integrity, within the confines and structures of the (incredibly friendly to very rich people) law.
Or did he double down and wilfully direct a deeply corrupt and semi- (if not fully) illegal mishmash of businesses, built upon deceit, dishonesty, (maybe outright fraud) and dealing with extraordinarily shifty people that now have a hold on him.
Who knows...

Thats true...He wouldnt be liable but if they are building a RICO case that pulls evidence to say the Trump organisation has been corrupt at all levels for years across generations....bye bye trump organisation as you say...
It wouldnt necessarily be just civil fines either. Banning of the use of the name for business by anyone connected with it would essentially provide trumps ego with the biggest hit.What would the self declared bestest business man ever in the world ever do if he couldnt trade under the name that made him famous?

Aside from being the kind of offensive behaviour that comes naturally to Trump, it might also be an attempt to divert attention away from yesterday's story about the huge tax fraud at the heart of the transfer of his father Fred's wealth to him (i.e. Donald).
