A Manhattan judge on Wednesday dismissed claims that President Trump and his eldest children broke federal racketeering laws by promoting marketing opportunities that brought thousands in losses for investors, but allowed state claims to proceed.
The plaintiffs claimed in a 2018 class-action lawsuit that Trump Corporation, Donald Trump, Don Jr., Eric Trump, and Ivanka Trump received millions in secret payments by promoting a multilevel marketing company called American Communications Network.
Trump endorsed the company in speeches and on "The Celebrity Apprentice."
The plaintiffs claimed they lost thousands of dollars because the products went bust, and sought unspecified money damages for alleged fraud and racketeering, Reuters reported.
U.S. District Judge Lorna Schofield dismissed racketeering claims, citing a lack of evidence, but allowed the plaintiffs to pursue claims of fraud, unfair competition and deceptive trade practices.

The history books will not look kindly on the Democrats at all. Yet another feather in his cap on the road to re-election.

When you replace every judge with your "guy", a la revolving-door-cabinet.
I think Trump is about to be victorious a lot more often.

That is a very valid point though it pains me to say it.
The Western education system is essentially just a mass indoctrination camp.
Perhaps in a utopian future logic and rationale will make a return to society at large.
ETA: I don’t mind moderate and rational leftists. I believe a healthy society needs both a left and a right wing. The “far” on either sides can both burn. That said I do believe the far left are much more a threat than their opponents on the right.
