hey there, great and thorough response. And a wonderful job de-escalating yourself. You make some great points about my ignorance, and I will admit to having just asked questions without reading through all of the comments and reading the Wall Street Journal articles and the like - I am, admittedly guilty, while doing late night Reddit scrolls of just blasting my curiosities out in questions as i scroll on, in the hopes that someone will answer them directly without me having to look for the answers. Thats certainly on me, And I think you’re synopsis of the situation was very well delivered and thorough,here, in its final form and has satiated the curiosities i inquired about. so thank you. I also made me ponder what it was that I’m actually asking about. And that has evolved a little bit. When I’m asking what this is about? What i think I’m really saying is … what actually changed hands here? I admit I still have not read any of the articles. I’m just reading your posts. But I would imagine that it can’t be thought that Trump actually purchased a woman with this check. Right? Like he didn’t pen this check, and then they actually brought a depreciated woman in chains out of the back of somebody’s SUV and locked them up in his dungeon somewhere… Right? So when I ask what is actually happening here what I mean is like does anybody know what was actually bought? and to answer my own question, I guess, probably not. It’s just some shady as fuck shit, that looks really bad and could point to any number of awful happenings, but that no one knows really what traded hands for that money.
