[REGNUM] Against the backdrop of international crises, party primaries in the United States have faded into the background. But they are taking their course - now Republicans in South Carolina have voted. This is their fourth state in the primaries. However, judges and prosecutors interfere in the election race. As in the three previous rounds of primary voting, Donald Trump won in South Carolina. The primaries themselves are quite easy for him. But at the same time, Trump has to wage a political battle in many dimensions at once, while simultaneously trying to win the election and avoid going to prison.

#4  Okey dokie. Donald Trump, for all of his purported wealth, did not take cash out of his pocket for that building. Somebody put up loans for it. It's their building, and Trump pays the note to use it.
I'm thinking that the leinholders will have something to say about a change of ownership.
If NYC says they're 'taking' the building, does that mean that they're assuming the note, or do they feel that Trump should continue to pay for it?

#3  I never heard it brought up, but what assessed value was Trump being taxed on for these properties? It's not the same as collateral value, but it isn't completely divorced from it either. The state tells you what the assessed value is, you don't get to tell them (though you can appeal their determination.)

#2  Add another empty building. No revenue. Put migrants in and rundown the property value. NY will then also do their claw back game.
