The hedge fund founder is hosting a splashy fundraising dinner for Trump April 6 at his house in Palm Beach, Florida. But Paulson is not the only GOP kingmaker who is privately gearing up to help Trump. "It's the old cast coming back together to take it across the finish line," said an advisor to one of Trump's bundlers. Many of these "old cast" members are business leaders who have been close to Trump for years. As for the money going to pay Trump's legal bills, at least some of the people attending the Paulson event don't seem to care.

People walk in the Goldman Sachs global headquarters in Manhattan, New York, U.S., November 15, 2021. REUTERS/Andrew KellyAug 10 (Reuters) - Goldman Sachs (GS.N) shareholders cannot go forward with a class action alleging the bank misled investors about its business practices ahead of the subprime mortgage crisis, a U.S. appeals court ruled on Thursday. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in three pension funds' long-running case accusing the bank of unlawfully hiding conflicts of interest when creating risky subprime securities, costing investors more than $13 billion. The investors said that the bank's fraudulent statements kept its stock price artificially high. Goldman argued that these "aspirational" statements were too vague and general to have had any impact on the stock price.

"The Cassandras were there, but who's going to listen to John Paulson in 2005 or 2006, or Michael Burry?"
