BillStime Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Jon back in the seat during this important election season is a public service. “We have two candidates who are chronologically outside the norm of anyone who has run for the presidency in this country, in the history of this country,” Stewart said of the 81-year-old Biden and 77-year-old Trump. “They are the oldest people ever to run for president — breaking by only four years the record that they set the last time they ran!” Stewart exclaimed. “We’re not suggesting neither man is vibrant, productive or even capable,” Stewart said. “What’s crazy is thinking that we are the ones as voters who must silence concerns and criticisms. It is the candidates’ job to assuage concerns — not the voters’ job not to mention them.” While Biden “isn’t Donald Trump,” Stewart said, mentioning the 45th president’s multiple indictments and legal cases against him, “the stakes of this election don’t make Donald Trump’s opponent less subject to scrutiny.” “It actually makes him more subject to scrutiny,” Stewart said. “If your guy loses, bad things might happen, but the country is not over. And if your guy wins, the country is in no way saved.” “So the good news is: I’m not saying you don’t have to worry about who wins the election,” Stewart concluded. “I’m saying you have to worry about every day before it, and every day after, forever.” link 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irv Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) John Stewart is a punk and failed movie maker. His crappy movie grossed $3M on a budget of $10M. Must have run out of money. Definitley ran out of talent. What a mess. Edited March 12 by Irv 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US Egg Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Only time I watched him do anything was in “Death To Smoochy”. One of my favorite Robin Williams performances. Jon Stewart was a nobody then…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t believe that guy was stupid enough to go on tv and say that. Stewart was 100%spot on a few weeks back also about who and what a patriot is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This article underlines the significant discrepancy between a property's assessed value, appraised value, and its actual selling price. It's not the same. Trump faced fraud charges for intentionally and consistently misvaluing assets across 23 different properties and other assets. This was done to persuade banks to lend to the Trump Organization on more favorable terms. From 2011-2021, Mr. Trump and the Trump Organization knowingly and intentionally created more than 200 false and misleading valuations of assets on his annual Statements of Financial Condition to defraud financial institutions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but the point is everybody does that because we all think our stuff is worth more than they may say it is and when you do that it's up to the bank to send an appraiser to check. Are you calling the appraiser a liar? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you calling the appraiser a liar? Not everybody does it. And of course they went after him. Not because of politics but because he is a dick. I’m sure they wanted to go after him for years and finally had something to go on. He’s from New York they are from New York they hate him just like most New Yorkers. The lesson, don’t be a dick! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you calling the appraiser a liar? John listed his property for sale, and someone purchased it at the asking price. No one compelled the market to accept the value he placed on the property. Does John have a track record of deliberately and regularly mispricing his assets across his real estate portfolio? If so, he should also face prosecution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leh-nerd skin-erd Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 1 hour ago, Tommy Callahan said: The interesting part about this story to me is just how badly the city underestimated the value of the property, and by extension, the tax this very wealthy celebrity paid. With the real estate boom, it’s understandable that some properties would raise faster than a reasonable reassessment could address, but missing by $16,000,000 on an $18,000,000 sale? It makes you wonder if the city gives de facto tax breaks to residents of wealthy enclaves, or individuals in some cases. It also raises the question of the ability of the city to accurately or reasonably assess valuations to begin with. Is the undervaluation of properties systemic, intentional or a reflection of incompetence? Finally, Mr. Stewart apparently benefited from a tax windfall, and nothing would preclude him for making things right and cutting a check to make up at least some of the difference. One would assume the lost tax revenue goes toward paying for valuable services for the community as a whole, especially those less fortunate. The phrase “fair share” comes to mind. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other one being defended. For the same damn thing. It's all good.
