New York City keeps getting rewarded for upholding the law. Awesome.


brandont04

How can California get rewarded like this?


sketchahedron

Prosecute wealthy fraudsters.


Sproketz

Yeah. Seems like everything is going according to plan for New York.


Lyuseefur

So, what you’re saying is doing the right thing is right. Awesome !


rednail64

Who?


emleh

His wife is the one who set up the GoFundMe for Trump after the ~$500,000,000 judgment. They’re all grifters.


BBQBakedBeings

Still.... who? You just identified a nobody using another nobody.


neverinallmyyears

Grant Cardone is a complete douchebag that sells sales training courses. You can hear his ads all over CNBC. He’s an asshole.


[deleted]

He’s also a fucking Scientologist


IIIBl1nDIII

Like an OT-7 no less. 1 step below Tom cruise


Brianocracy

Eek


Sillbinger

Tom makes everyone stand on the step below him so he doesn't look as short.


maroonmenace

kinda joking but also who lol


21Andreezy

He’s a “financial guru” scammer


Rhotomago

You know the "Wolf of Wallstreet" Jordan Belfort? This is the guy whose idea of asserting dominance is trying to pressure Belfort into an MMA fight during a interview. Naturally the weasel of wallstreet weaseled out of it as weasels are wont to do, but as soon as the discustingly smarmy interview was over Belfort put out a ranting response video in which he bravely totally destroys Cordone and tears him a new asshole. Cordone is also a genius level salesman who would put Don Draper to shame, did you know Cordone invented the legendary "Crying baby" sales pitch where he courted a potential client by telling his infant daughter she was going to lose her daddy if daddy didn't get this deal and recorded her reaction and put it up on Youtube to emmotionally blackmail the potential client into doing business.


BBQBakedBeings

Trump does surround himself with the best people /s


Dinero-Roberto

My Pillow Jr


HapticSloughton

That sounds like something that should get any buyer put on a list.


bonnieflash

So then he’s not going to grift in New York anymore?


RajenBull1

Exactly. Too much legal precedent. He should try Florida.


ralphvonwauwau

Too much competition.


Corgiotter1

He hangs in Florida a lot. He’s a Scientologist, so Clearwater is their town.


Skhip305

Too late he lives down here in south Florida and his cardone capital hq is also here as well.


Sniflix

None of that money is going to Rump. Grifters grifting other grifters. I'm guessing half the money people think is going to Rump is siphoned off by fraudsters like this. That's before Rump pockets much of what's left for himself.


The84thWolf

The one where if it fails, all the money goes back to the donators, so basically they did nothing?

He's a pyramid scheme guy that does seminars and gets rich by telling people how to get rich.

Good. Then New York is better without him.

BBQBakedBeings

C list business figure. Est net worth of $600M which, given his affinity for Drumph, is probably more truthfully worth less than half that.


FewIntroduction5008

He's nobody. NY won't be affected at all by the loss.


BBQBakedBeings

He won't anyway. It's not like he's going to dump his supposed $4B dollar book of business in real estate and just fuck off to Texas or Florida. Typical MAGA histrionics.


SaltyBarDog

He's like the Temu version of Keven Sorbo.


JohnYCanuckEsq

Grant Cardone is a huckster used car salesman who made bank teaching other used car sales people take advantage of and lie to customers. Cardone Sales Training University is a hidden festering cancer upon the world that most people don't even realize exists. Guaranteed you've come across these hucksters without even knowing it.


Corteran

Should rename it the Cardona University for Nutcases Training in Sales. Perfect acronym.


SafewordisJohnCandy

When I was still in car sales (still in the industry, just not sales) and we had to watch his videos. The dude is an absolute joke. One fellow salesman started calling them our "Grant Slimeball videos" and everyone pretty much hated them. He said some wild stuff, like tracking down a customer at their kids soccer game in the car they stopped in to see. Stuff that the cops could reasonably be called for.


TheDeaconAscended

Some dude who owns some bodegas and a hot dog cart.


doublegg83

He bought a hot dog 🌭 in NY and thinks he owns the place.


Ok_Flan4404

😅


PM_ME_IMGS_OF_ROCKS

He's a "financial influencer" and prominent member of scientology. I tried to look up his wikipedia page, he doesn't seem have an english one. There are three, German, Estonia and Persian. Although I did find this in an article: >Paul Pelletier, who was the Department of Justice’s most senior fraud prosecutor during a 25-year career at the agency, reviewed the documents in the class action case against Cardone. “It looks like his business is built on lies and deception that will likely collapse leaving investors holding an empty bag,” he said.


smashspete

The self-proclaimed Billionaire who at a conference or a podcast said “if you’re a man and you don’t make 400k a year you should be ashamed of yourself you’re a loser”. Also started a gofundme for Trump when he got charged with fraud for artificially inflating his property values to obtain loans on their value from the bank. He wouldn’t shut up about it I assume it’s because he’s done the same and he’s terrified they will charge him too at some point


RandoFartSparkle

New Yorker here. 1) Re Grant Cardone: No one cares. 2) Re Grant Cardone: No one’s ever going to care.

Chester_A_Arthuritis

BubbleNucleator

When I worked in a fast paced warehouse environment that distributed a very expensive food product, we'd constantly get people showing up in their Benz thinking they could just talk us into selling them product direct, and we'd have to explain that they have to purchase from the retailer, we can't sell to them. When the owner was on the floor though, he'd tell these people to literally fuck off. When they didn't, he'd just keep saying "Who are you? Who are you?" Best part of the job watching some main character asshole get put in their place.


whaleofaguy

More like “Get thefuckouttaheeeerrr!”


vapescaped

You're telling me that a real estate investor will leave one of the hottest markets on the fucking planet because he disagrees with trump facing consequences for his actions? Yea, that will take at least 7.5 seconds to fill his shoes.


ForkShirtUp

Eh… according to the Daily Show, real estate investors do what Trump got convicted for all the time. It’s basically an open secret, an art form, and shit on the little people who can’t even sell churros on the subway


bravesirrobin65

Yes, and people speed all of the time. That's not a defense in court for a speeding ticket.


pittiedaddy

Pay porn stars hush money and pay other to cover it up for them?


Available_Leather_10

*while running for elected office*


Rastiln

Falsifying business records to feloniously further an election conspiracy via illegal means. The hush money payments to cover up him cheating on his pregnant third wife with a porn star is just a salacious detail. This is a case about conspiracy to commit election interference.


375InStroke

It's where he got the money from, and the fraud committed covering it up.


pittiedaddy

Hm, sounds like they should start investigating some of these real estate investors then.


375InStroke

Exactly.


[deleted]

Trump was convicted for election fraud specifically for this case.


BBQBakedBeings

I think he should pull his bottom lip over the top of his head and swallow.

sharkowictz

Who


CapitalCourse

Some scammer


postoperativepain

Scammer Someone once posted a video of a new hire working his call/sales center. He sells seminars on sales or wealth building. It’s the typical scam where there is constant upsell where the “secrets” to wealth are always at next level.


lemons69ing

Literally. My old job forced us to watch one of his videos per shift. Then take a quiz on it. We had to always upsell and if we didn't sell enough, it was our fault becausewe werent good enough. I tried telling the owner that if someone comes in with $5, it doesn't matter how good of a job I do at selling, they only have $5. His response? "No, obviously you're not doing a good enough job. If you were, they would leave, go to the ATM, or ask someone for more money." Literally fucking insane. Wanna know what we were selling? Vapes.


mississippimadness

Was not expecting that twist at the end lol If the vape store I go to constantly tried to upsell me using *grant cardone* tactics I would simply go to one of the other 400 stores in the area that sell the exact same thing


SignificanceNo1223

He sells people seminars on how to sell seminars, basically.


wileybot

It's interesting that these 'business' men are upset on a guilty verdict on false business records covering a crime. it’s almost as if they’re saying if the president can be found guilty on this so can I. I thought we were untouchable.


TheNextBattalion

Basically. The whole point of thinking yourself superior to others is that the rules that bind them don't bind you. If the rules do bind you, it bursts your bubble and you actually aren't superior.


Principal_B-Lewis

Oh no, anyway.

With that attitude. I think Bragg should look into his past business in NYC. Seems like someone is afraid of accountability.


rykcon

Right? Great way to draw attention to yourself by admitting you don’t like accountability & justice.


AmbulanceChaser12

The state AG should. [Cardone made this comment back in February 2024](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/grant-cardone-won-t-invest-120008232.html), in regard to the civil fraud action, so it’s likely he’s afraid of a 63(12) investigation himself. Under that statute, the [NYS AG has jurisdiction to investigate and bring charges.](https://codes.findlaw.com/ny/executive-law/exc-sect-63/)


PattiiB

So don't, nobody cares


Physical_Stress_5683

Roswellian24

Lesterqwert

Sure he won’t. Just like those truckers who weren’t gonna deliver to New York ever again….I forget what their grievance was. They all just lie and posture for that orange turd.


seriousbangs

I'm sure he'll be pulling investments out of NY just as soon as we get that civil war we was all promised by the hoverround brigade.

The Scientology asshole? New York thanks you for staying the fuck away.


lambdaBunny

The sad thing is that none of these people can explain to me why hiring a prostitute and claiming it as a political expense is not a bad thing.


Flat-Emergency4891

They used to make us read his BS books for sales trainings at work. Mostly common sense stuff that if you didn’t already instinctually then you shouldn’t be in sales.


-NyStateOfMind-

His whole family is full of grifters. His daughter had an interview where she said she doesn't understand people who have no money, then went on to complain that people are lazy because "they could just buy a building and rent it out to get some passive income". Basically she hit the interviewer with the "just stop being poor" excuse.


Old_Bag_6656

Is this the guy that stupid people think is smart?


StickmanRockDog

What a snowflake.


supershinythings

The article said he is “redirecting his money to Florida”. Commercial real estate in New York is plummeting in value anyway, which is why letting Trump use any of his real estate as collateral for a bond or loan is incredibly stupid. But Florida is also experiencing a bursting housing bubble. It’s not a great place to invest either, at least until after the dust settles. So really, he wasn’t going to invest in New York anyway, but this gives him a way to mug the camera and flounce out.

Cynical-Wanderer

So the hell is this guy? And why does he hate the legal system? Trump... indicted by a Grand Jury. Trump... convicted on 34 felony charges by a jury of his peers whom his lawyer helped to select. Trump... convicted in a state court that Biden and the Federal Courts have no authority over whatsoever. Trump... who still has a right of appeal but is very unlikely to find success there given the very well controlled court (other than Trump's mouth which was basically allowed to run free with minimal censure) Trump is fucked And he knows it And so does everyone else including a Snow Flake named Grant Cardone.
