George Conway Says Trump’s Accounting Firm Dumping Him is Worse Than Getting Him Impeached (Twice)
It has been one hell of a tough month for the Trumps. And it’s barely half over.
In the last month, Trump admitted that, yes – indeed he did believe that Pence should simply overthrow the election (in effect) and he talked about pardoning January 6th rioters. Rachel and authorities exposed evidence of fake Electoral College certificates. We heard about the most obvious criminal charge to arise at this point, the avalanche of evidence that Trump destroyed documents left and right, tried to flush some documents down a toilet (there is no innocent explanation) and then, in our opinion the worst of all – and it’s not even close, the “Above Top Secret” documents at Mar-a-Lago.
If those documents contained information that might be “valuable” to the right foreigner for the right price…
But Monday was Trumps’ worst “business day” with James filing the motion with Mazars’s letter, stating that the tax returns cannot be deemed reliable, that they had cut ties with the Trump Organization, and assisting in cases against Trump.

It was so bad that George Conway laid it out as plainly as can be.
For any business (including a privately-held one) that has outside financing or investors, having your financial statements (let alone 10 years’ worth!) pulled by your accountants is just about the most calamitous thing that could happen to it, other than perhaps being indicted.
A reply asked an even more interesting question going forward, how does one find a replacement firm going forward after all this? Trump is certainly going to need one, fast. The answer:
It’s going to be next to impossible.
That’s a tough problem to have when one has a hotel lease in Washington to dump along with balloon payments coming up in the next 2-3 years, money coming from political activities, some of it for the campaign, some to go straight into Trump’s pockets. It is an overlooked inevitable result of what’s happened due to the New York case.
As we said, this has been a bad month for the Trumps.

And then there’s the doozy, which doesn’t seem possible, because what could be worse than being impeached…twice?
Now we know.
This is worse for him than getting impeached twice.
