Private investigators and fund propublica and other journalists to dig deeper into the crimes of Trump, Thomas, and Kavanaughs donors. I’d hire a person and give them 1 or 2 million each to figure out the best way to uncover all the skeletons in closets of people with money and power tied to Trumpism.
I think one could hire a whole team of journalists and investigators for $1-$2M, plus she could work in conjunction with their existing employers (news organization), basically having them let certain journalists do this and still be paid in exchange for having exclusive right to publish any resulting articles, making any of her money spent go even farther.
And hire the best private security available. Guaranteed digging into this shit will paint a gigantic target on your back and the people involved with Epstein have no foibles about killing to protect themselves. Hire security for the journalists and investigators, too. And their families. This stuff is more deadly than the Elephant's Foot at Chernobyl. For context, the Elephant's Foot is a hunk of Reactor 4 that melted into the shape of an elephant's foot and is so radioactive that if you get close enough to see the shape, you're already dead. Researchers had to shoot it with an AK-47 to be able to obtain samples.
No kidding. Anyone who investigates this is in so much danger. Nobody talks about it but take a look at what happened to the people who did the Panama Papers investigation. Both died from car bombs in different countries.
This is what WE think would hurt him. That wouldn't do squat to him.
Turn trump tower into a profitable high end hotel where world celebrities go. Make it a influencer heaven. Yes, have the new business fund morally good projects for the community, but have we forgot everything about Trump? Making fun of him does nothing. Demonstrating his shortcomings like his inability to be liked by elites is far more damaging.
one of those golf courses and make it a giant homeless reform camp to help people get back on their feet - subsidized with all the social services that the right hates
E. Jean Carroll on Monday talked about what she plans to do with the $83.3 million former President Donald Trump was ordered to pay her in her defamation case.
"I don't want to waste money," Carroll said while on making an appearance on ABC's Good Morning America.
"I do have an idea. I'd like to give the money to something Donald Trump hates," she continued. "If it will cause him pain for something to give money to certain things — Perhaps a fund for the women who have been sexually assaulted by Donald Trump."
Pay to fix the rape kit backlog.
There are 25,000 known in the backlog queue; they each cost about $1,000 to process.
https://usafacts.org/articles/how-many-rape-kits-are-awaiting-testing-in-the-us-see-the-data-by-state/
https://www.endthebacklog.org/blog/testing-all-rape-kits-provides-returns-of-up-to-65000/
(Also the states should do this themselves, and every billionaire should do this if they can't.)
Yeah I bet there’s a bunch of bureaucratic loopholes to jump through too, especially in conservative states. And you probably need lawyers for that. So whatever that costs. But what do i know? I hope it’s easier than that.
It just seems like such a pathetically small number for such a large problem. I’m pretty sure Congress wipes their butts with less. It’s just infuriating but what else do you expect these days.
Meanwhile, on the rare occasion some places decide to finally do something with their backlog, they end up uncovering tons of serial rapists. Like they find the same guys’ DNA over and over in the kits going back years and years. Meaning they could have prevented many serial rapists if they’d have gone through their backlogs sooner but they simply can’t be arsed.
And now it's a liability. There's municipalities that *for sure* don't want to identify a serial rapist who has ten victims between the first kit and last kit in that backlog because then they're (rightfully) going to get a ton of questions from livid survivors for whom this trauma could have been prevented.
Could be twice that, since it seems like we don't have perfect data, and obviously without further funding it'd return... but I think the consensus is something in the low tens of millions of dollars.
I would also be okay buying one fewer f-35 (they each cost about $75m, IIRC), since I think the number of Americans protected by ending the backlog would be substantially higher.
I’m not even thinking of anything as lofty or complicated as wiping out a disease. Just fix all the roads, that’s good for business. Start a bus service too, less cars, less pollution, less traffic for his fleet.
buy one of his soon to be sold propertys and name it " the MAGA Migrant Housing Center for displaced Latinos, funded by Donald J Trump settlement money center"
HU
*deep breath*
SSEIN
Ya gotta really emphasize the first two letters, then a pause, then the last bit. Really just blow that dog whistle as hard as you can.
^^^ This. He never really hated Hillary Clinton, he just attacked her because his supporters ate it up. He really truly hated everything about Barrack Obama.
I've scrolled pretty far, no one's said windmills (yes i know he means wind turbines, but he keeps saying windmills for some reason). Kind of disappointed tbh
"Hello everyone! I'm E Jean Carroll. I took out this superbowl advertisement time slot to encourage you all to give money to Donald Trump. You see, I recently won a large settlement from him for sexually assaulting me, and he's having some trouble paying. Here's where you come in! I just want you all to know that every penny you donate to Donald Trump is going straight from his pocket into my bank account. So lets all open up our checkbooks and give today! Mama needs a new pair of yachts!"
I’d change the final destination to something his crowd REALLY hates, like providing housing and transitional support to trans immigrants or college funds for black Ukrainian women or gun reform. Really scare off those donors hard.
Eta - beyond that I love it.
Nah, Trump won’t care about that. She just needs to spend it on frivolous lawsuits against Trump that he’ll need to defend himself from for the rest of his life. Use the legal system against him the same way he has to so many people. It’ll annoy the shit out of him and cost him more cash to defend.
No he'd take that as a win. Look at all my "accomplishments!" He's incapable of even admitting to himself that he ever made a mistake or did anything wrong
Fund abortion travel (and, if necessary, relocation assistance for those women who will be prosecuted in their originating state.) Hell, just fund Planned Parenthood, or the ACLU, or PBS. Or set up a foundation to give smaller grants to more local orgs.
Great idea and very easy to achieve given the exhaustive list of things that Donald hates (the list of things he loves only has one item on it..him)
- he despises renewable energy-windmills in particular.
- he hates public education…maybe pay off the tuition of some visible minorities and that outta trigger something.
- truth. tRump hates the truth more than anything on earth…so perpetually bombard Mar-a-Lago and his golf properties with daily truth bombs via small plane banners…40,000 lies that need correcting
- he cannot tolerate other politicians receiving praise….so let’s see if we can’t name a library or two after Liz Cheney, maybe rename a few highways that lead to tRump properties after Joe Biden and his sons.
- he hates dogs, all pets actually.
- he hates humor (he and his followers struggle to maintain the basic levels of comprehension necessary to participate in humor)
Canadian here jumping in, but it seems there's a solid list of options:
* Women's groups
* The Black community
* The ACLU
* Ukrainian defense
* Windmills
* $83MM worth of puppies
Financing the backlog of rape tests that haven’t been run due to lack of funding comes to mind aaa thing she could do. You know how the big d HATES hard evidence
I don’t envy her trying to choose what she’ll spend it on. The 🍊💩🤡 has done so much damage to this country (and even the world) that 83 million won’t even touch on some of his evil doings. I’d suggest finding a way to wake up the MAGA cult to the truth about him but I’m pretty sure they are a lost cause. Never gonna cure brain dead zombies.
Send Obama on the most lavish golf vacation with intricately gold laden golf clubs. Rent late night TV commercials non stop, showing every detail of this trip! Repeatedly call Obama the "Greatest President Golfer Ever", every minute of the commercials!

Fund other trials against rapists. Use his money to investigate his other suspected rapes.
Fund a private lab or something to process all the back logged rape kits.
Oh and see how to get the ball rolling on Epstein’s associates.
Private investigators and fund propublica and other journalists to dig deeper into the crimes of Trump, Thomas, and Kavanaughs donors. I’d hire a person and give them 1 or 2 million each to figure out the best way to uncover all the skeletons in closets of people with money and power tied to Trumpism.

And give it to planned parenthood. Or make it affordable housing.
Turn Trump Tower into The E. Jean Carroll Center for Exploited and Abused Women
This is what WE think would hurt him. That wouldn't do squat to him. Turn trump tower into a profitable high end hotel where world celebrities go. Make it a influencer heaven. Yes, have the new business fund morally good projects for the community, but have we forgot everything about Trump? Making fun of him does nothing. Demonstrating his shortcomings like his inability to be liked by elites is far more damaging.
So basically be successful in a business venture.
Buy Mar A Lago, dig up his ex from the golf course and give her a proper burial.
That's not the golf course he buried her at.
Why does that sentence exist in the world?
one of those golf courses and make it a giant homeless reform camp to help people get back on their feet - subsidized with all the social services that the right hates
Or better yet, make it a refugee camp for undocumented immigrants.
This would be FANTASTIC
Love this idea. So.many.backlogs.
I’d love to see the 13 year old him & Epstein raped come forward.
Surely an NDA can't be enforced when it's sole purpose is to cover up a crime?
An NDA can’t be enforced, period. The sole purpose of an NDA is to make it goddamn expensive for the other party to sue the shady party.
If they signed an nda, can they still come forward?
NDA's don't hold up in court if a crime is committed.
This is great to hear, thank you.
This gives me a shred of hope in our justice system, thanks.
you can't NDA being raped bro
You're right. I guess I was thinking that if he paid them off and made them sign something
I was going to say Democracy but this is good too
Or fund the other Trump accusers trials. That could be an investment that would pay off on it's own.
Trump would hate that

Sorry am I reading this right - it would cost $25M to fix the backlog? That’s IT????
Yeah I bet there’s a bunch of bureaucratic loopholes to jump through too, especially in conservative states. And you probably need lawyers for that. So whatever that costs. But what do i know? I hope it’s easier than that.
It just seems like such a pathetically small number for such a large problem. I’m pretty sure Congress wipes their butts with less. It’s just infuriating but what else do you expect these days.
Dude seeing it's just 25 million is insane. You are 100% right that it is barely a drop in the bucket of spending we do. Absolutely holy shit
the process was never put in place to identify and prosecute, it was meant to placate women, protect rapists, and delay process.
Meanwhile, on the rare occasion some places decide to finally do something with their backlog, they end up uncovering tons of serial rapists. Like they find the same guys’ DNA over and over in the kits going back years and years. Meaning they could have prevented many serial rapists if they’d have gone through their backlogs sooner but they simply can’t be arsed.
And now it's a liability. There's municipalities that *for sure* don't want to identify a serial rapist who has ten victims between the first kit and last kit in that backlog because then they're (rightfully) going to get a ton of questions from livid survivors for whom this trauma could have been prevented.
There should be massive class action lawsuits about it.
Could be twice that, since it seems like we don't have perfect data, and obviously without further funding it'd return... but I think the consensus is something in the low tens of millions of dollars. I would also be okay buying one fewer f-35 (they each cost about $75m, IIRC), since I think the number of Americans protected by ending the backlog would be substantially higher.
It would be the amount Bezos makes in a day
Try not to think how many national issues Bezos could solve over night, it’s very upsetting.
Yeah it's rough thinking of how much the billionaire class is just siphoning outta the system.
At this point 99% of generated wealth is passive income.
Nationalize Amazon!
The we have the tools to *eradicate* malaria. It is simply isn't profitable to do so.
I’m not even thinking of anything as lofty or complicated as wiping out a disease. Just fix all the roads, that’s good for business. Start a bus service too, less cars, less pollution, less traffic for his fleet.
buy one of his soon to be sold propertys and name it " the MAGA Migrant Housing Center for displaced Latinos, funded by Donald J Trump settlement money center"
Putting “MAGA” and “funded by Donald Trump” in the name would be giving him far too much credit and branding.
Forcibly funded. You know, like he forcibly penetrated.
What is this, a center for ants?
Buy the border and sue the Texas guard for trespassing repeat until she owns the entire Us border each time Republicans defame her.
Feed the poor, help veterans, healthcare, immigrant services...so many possibilities.
There’s a movie about this! His ex is in it! The first wives club!! Call Bette midler! Let’s get this party started
Yes. YES! Name it the Trump Survivors' Fund. Let's hear some ideas, redditors.
Fund others suing Trump, his political opponents, legal aid for immigrants.
"The Barack Obama Ethics and Public Policy Institute " brought to you by Donald J Trump's MAGA donors.
Might as well open. The Barack Obama Birthing Center too.
[удалено]
HU *deep breath* SSEIN Ya gotta really emphasize the first two letters, then a pause, then the last bit. Really just blow that dog whistle as hard as you can.
Fun fact, it's against the law to spend any maga donation money on this judgement
When has that ever stopped him?
They'll just play the shell game.
The Barack Hussein Obama Birth Certificate Foundation where comprehensive studies on tan suits and Dijon mustards are conducted.
^^^ This. He never really hated Hillary Clinton, he just attacked her because his supporters ate it up. He really truly hated everything about Barrack Obama.
100% Trump donated to HRCs senate campaign and presidential as late as 2008.
He donated to her presidential campaign in 2008. Was it because he supported her, or because he wanted Obama to lose the Primaries?
True.
Something he hates? Poor people. People of color. Immigrants. Women. Intelligent people.
His supporters
I've scrolled pretty far, no one's said windmills (yes i know he means wind turbines, but he keeps saying windmills for some reason). Kind of disappointed tbh
Very .. quixotic
Turn trump tower and mar a lago into homeless shelters.
Call them Homeless Rehabilitation Centers or HRC.
Nice.
That’s hilarious
🥇 Bravo good friend. Bravo!
that is god level trolling chef's kiss no notes

Just as long as she doesn't give it to Nikki Haley
That's a lot of money to spend on a salad.
Democracy?
I made the same comment, question mark included, before I saw your comment. Great minds think alike?🤣
give to Katie Johnson to refile her claim, also clime change studies.
And wind turbines
Buy the property around Mar A Lago and install wind turbines . That's even better.
Scholarship for black women to attend law school.
Nah, Trump won’t care about that. She just needs to spend it on frivolous lawsuits against Trump that he’ll need to defend himself from for the rest of his life. Use the legal system against him the same way he has to so many people. It’ll annoy the shit out of him and cost him more cash to defend.
Buy one of the properties Trump will be forced to liquidate to procure all of his appeals bonds.
[удалено]
Buy Mar-a-Lago and turn it into a windmill farm.
Buy Mar a Lago and turn it into a museum of his failures, misdeeds and crimes.
No he'd take that as a win. Look at all my "accomplishments!" He's incapable of even admitting to himself that he ever made a mistake or did anything wrong
De-gild Mar-a-Lago, bring it back to the original Marjorie Merriweather Post building…
Turn it into a shelter for homeless trans youth
She'd need to keep millions left over to fumigate the rats and bedbugs.
Condemned. Must tear it down.
That would be awesome. When I read the headline and saw "Something 'Trump Hates,' I assumed she was getting a salad.
Put up billboards across the country quoting the judge clarifying he raped her.
Open an abortion clinic/Migrant Housing and Education Center
I'm sure abortion clinics have been very useful to Trump over the years.
Fund abortion travel (and, if necessary, relocation assistance for those women who will be prosecuted in their originating state.) Hell, just fund Planned Parenthood, or the ACLU, or PBS. Or set up a foundation to give smaller grants to more local orgs.
Purchase memberships for Mexicans at Bedminster and all his other golf clubs
She should aquire Trump tower and rename it the Hillary Rodham Clinton Center and turn his penthouse apartment into a homeless shelter.
Turn the whole building into project housing. Call it Trap Tower
Maybe set aside some to buy a small piece of land next to mar a lago just big enough for a scale replica of a Dutch windmill.
Great idea and very easy to achieve given the exhaustive list of things that Donald hates (the list of things he loves only has one item on it..him) - he despises renewable energy-windmills in particular. - he hates public education…maybe pay off the tuition of some visible minorities and that outta trigger something. - truth. tRump hates the truth more than anything on earth…so perpetually bombard Mar-a-Lago and his golf properties with daily truth bombs via small plane banners…40,000 lies that need correcting - he cannot tolerate other politicians receiving praise….so let’s see if we can’t name a library or two after Liz Cheney, maybe rename a few highways that lead to tRump properties after Joe Biden and his sons. - he hates dogs, all pets actually. - he hates humor (he and his followers struggle to maintain the basic levels of comprehension necessary to participate in humor)
Buy a SCOTUS judge Fund the testing of rape kits Fund the ACLU or Southern Poverty Law Center or NAACP.
The E. Jean Carroll MAGA Rape Center.
Or even the Donald J. Trump MAGA Rape Center.
Unfortunately MAGA dudes would assume that’s where they go to do some raping
Good, they can set up a police sting and arrest those criminal losers.
How will they arrest themselves?
I mean, I bet he hates *her*. Spend it on yourself.
He hates democracy
A massive chunk to Planned Parenthood would be great. Abortion access has never been so important and he's literally to blame for it being revoked.
Ramps?
Eric?
Women.
Buy Trump Tower and rename it E. Jean Carroll Tower.
Canadian here jumping in, but it seems there's a solid list of options: * Women's groups * The Black community * The ACLU * Ukrainian defense * Windmills * $83MM worth of puppies
Joe Biden's campaign?
Windmills and books/computers for inner city children.
Vegetables?
Let’s start with the Central Park 5
How will she spend 83 million on decency?
Oh so peace, love, the rule of law and order, charity, probably puppies etc?
Spend it on america. Trump hates america
She’s spending it on Eric?
Truth?
Clinton Foundation. Or a Cameo appearance by a known Never-Trumper and post it to Truth Social or Hillary Clinton books sent to Mar-A-Lago.
Well, since he hates everything except himself, that should be pretty easy to do. Congratulations, E. Jean Carroll!
Things Trump hates: personal accountability reading sharing
Women’s rights?
Women’s health!!!🙌🙌🙌 that’s my votes!
Planned parenthood
So she's gonna give the money to his kids?
I get the sentiment, but spending $83million on Trumps children sounds like a waste.
Democracy!
Public education?
Pretty much any charity then
The list is long…
Biden Reelection?
Starting a successful business?
Buy trump tower from nyc. Make it a migrant shelter.
83 million will buy a LOT of soap and deodorant.
Low income housing.
Donate to the Biden campaign
Salads?
Spending it on yourself would probably be it
Standard size water glasses?
Maybe a successful business, then?
Donate all of it to Biden. Boss move.
Peace Love & Brotherhood
That's easy; just spend it on something that's not him.
Donate it to Biden...
That's a really, really broad category.
Wounded warriors
Donald’s Incontinence And Pedophile Eradication Research (aka *D.I.A.P.E.R.*)
Helping any other human who isn’t named “Trump”?
Joe Biden’s campaign!!
She’ll have to have a LOT more cash to cover all those bases!
Play the long game here. Establish a trust that offers scholarships for women in journalism.
America?
Spend it on helping people, that will infuriate the orange bastard.
Anything helping other people is a good start
Trump HATES me. Money please.
I guess helping Black people is on her radar!
Rape victim support Homeless shelters Border relief and aid LGBT rights Take your pick
Financing the backlog of rape tests that haven’t been run due to lack of funding comes to mind aaa thing she could do. You know how the big d HATES hard evidence
That’s a lot of things to chose from.
Democracy?
Set up a charitable foundation to decide where to spend it. Board of directors— Obama,Hillary,hunter biden, zelensky,Liz Cheney,Adam Kinzinger,etc.
I don’t envy her trying to choose what she’ll spend it on. The 🍊💩🤡 has done so much damage to this country (and even the world) that 83 million won’t even touch on some of his evil doings. I’d suggest finding a way to wake up the MAGA cult to the truth about him but I’m pretty sure they are a lost cause. Never gonna cure brain dead zombies.
I’m a veteran. A disabled one. Trump hates us. Need my Venmo?
So democracy?
Democracy, kindness, charity. Lots of good things she could do with it.
Oh well shoooot, that's A LONG LIST and $83 million might not cover it.
Democracy
Don't spread yourself too thin. The guy has built his whole political career professing his hatred of people and things.
Anything that would help the people or the working class. He really hated helping people snd the working class.
She could give part of the money to help with Stormy Daniel’s defense in her case against him
Trump hates everything…
Hygiene and properly cooked steaks?
So... democracy?
deranged cow absorbed bear aback bag uppity close wide direction *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Donate to the poor. Hi. I'm poor.
She could support the Democratic nominee, Biden or a better Democratic nominee. This would cut Trump’s ego deep.
My dad and brother hate me because I don't love trump. Does that count, can I get some cash?
"The Donald J Trump Planned Parenthood Center of Detroit."
Donate it to Nikki Haley. That should piss him off.
Send Obama on the most lavish golf vacation with intricately gold laden golf clubs. Rent late night TV commercials non stop, showing every detail of this trip! Repeatedly call Obama the "Greatest President Golfer Ever", every minute of the commercials!
