Executives of Blue Origin briefly met with Trump within hours after paper spiked endorsement of Harris
The multi-billionaire owner of the Washington Post, Jeff Bezos, continued facing criticism throughout the weekend because executives from his aerospace company met with Donald Trump on the same day the newspaper prevented its editorial team from publishing an endorsement of his opponent in the US presidential election.
Senior news and opinion leaders at the Washington Post flew to Miami in late September 2024 to meet with Bezos, who had reservations about the paper issuing an endorsement in the 5 November election, the New York Times reported.
Amazon and the space exploration company Blue Origin are among Bezos-owned business that still compete for lucrative federal government contracts.
And the Post on Friday announced it would not endorse a candidate in the 5 November election after its editorial board had already drafted its endorsement of Kamala Harris.

If true, that might be a campaign finance violation. Any agreement with value to the campaign counts, and must be reported. That's one of the reasons why the Stormy Daniels thing got him in hot water.
So we have a little over a week until the election, and one side committed crimes that will take years to go through the courts, if they even do. Whooptie-fucking-doo.
In my country for administrative cases with short deadlines courts have fast tracks. So in such a case the court probably wouldn't issue any final judgement but could order everyone involved to stop further committing potentially illegal actions.
What ended up happening over the Stormy Daniels thing?
He was convicted on dozens of counts, and sentencing will occur in late November. A little treat for Thanksgiving.

But that's only if he loses. I have faith that it will happen. But reality doesn't care about my faith. Things will turn out how they turn out and we can only be sure once it's done.
But yeah, if he loses he'll be in prison come Christmas.
That or he'll try to flee the country.
If Trump is near or on his plane come election day, I'll feel a lot more confident in his loss.
I don't know but Trump is still running for president
