at least 100 million each or even 1 billion each and still gone back for more. 1 million was a test. Now that he knows they'll take the knee he'll use them as his own little piggy banks. They think they got off cheap. Diaper boy has been playing this game his whole life. He wants it all. The US gov't. is now
his muscle. I apologize in advance for the crude street language but it's appropriate here. He's gonna "tap that a.."
He knows these guys are soft. His ego needs to be fed along with his greed. He might overplay his hand. They always have their little pet, assaulter of couches, waiting with 0 integrity, for the opportunity to take over. Who will be his Brutus? Or will it be a combination? They have the money but do they have the connections. What will their fight or flight reaction be? I think he will go to that well too many times.
