NJ is moving to revoke 2 of Trump's 3 liquor licenses now that he is a convicted felon

Yeah they can't have them in this state after felony convictions and Trump recently racked up 34 of those in the NY falsified documents case. He has 3 golf clubs in NJ. The 3rd one just recently had the license renewed before he was officially convicted so I guess he gets an automatic extra year on that one. The other 2 (Bedminster and Trump National in Colts Neck) are subject to an upcoming hearing about the liquor licenses there. If I had to guess I'd say NJ is going to revoke them. The state is pretty tough when it comes to those types of matters. What is ironic is that the state doesn't think that Trump's businesses are fit to have liquor licenses after his felony convictions but apparently it is cool with him being on the ballot for president in November. Make it make sense.

I read he's had a victory of sorts in the courts re running for President again. I think the catchphrase there might need to become 'God Help America'.

@JudyEv I think you are living in some fantasy world if you find Trump scary. His four years in office were laden with very many layers of success. The economy was better, we were energy independent, the world wasn't on fire, the Taliban wasn't in charge, North Korea and Iran settled down, the border was secure, taxes were lower, foreign businesses were setting up shop and building factories here bringing more jobs and higher paying ones, poverty was severely reduced due to a strong economy, we had better trade deals, we had less crime, GDP was on the rise, we had no inflation... Sorry. But there was nothing bad with Trump's presidency other than he may have spouted off a little too much and wrote some bad tweets. Other than that, we were GOLDEN.

This is just SOOOO petty. Really? Besides, it's not TRUMP'S liquor license. It's a BUSINESS. How silly in the eyes of the American people this looks, and just sets Trump up for a bigger win in November. What will they do next? Take away his driver's license? Ban him from the local ice cream shop? Deny him food so he starves? This is so childish. Who's running this sh*tshow anyway? Pee Wee Herman?

@NJChicaa Of course Trump has a driver's license. Granted, he's always been more of a limo guy than a self-driver. But still, don't you think going after such petty things is juvenile? I mean, at some point when do any of these people realize the more they do to try to hurt Trump, the more they do to hurt themselves and their own credibility and reputations? Pee Wee Herman was just a reference to illustrate an immature man boy.

No worries. If he wins the election, he'll be able to run a speakeasy in the White House and the law won't be able to touch him.
