Closing take

July 9 wasn’t the day the Trump mess began. It was the day the cleanup started looking a lot like admission. The company’s corporate paper trail was moving, the criminal case was still expanding, and the old Trump trick of yelling “witch hunt” was colliding with the boring, brutal reality of filings, boards, and investigators. In other words: the brand that sold itself as untouchable was spending the summer of 2021 proving that paperwork can bite back.
