A quick definition of dragnet clause:

Term: DRAGNET CLAUSE

Definition: A dragnet clause is a legal term that refers to a clause in a contract that allows a lender to seize any and all assets of the borrower, even those not specifically listed as collateral, in the event of a default. This clause is also known as a mother Hubbard clause or a cross-collateral clause. Essentially, it gives the lender the power to cast a "dragnet" over all of the borrower's assets to ensure repayment of the loan.

A more thorough explanation:

A dragnet clause is a legal term that refers to a clause in a contract that allows a lender to seize any and all assets of the borrower in the event of a default. This means that the lender can take any property or assets that the borrower owns, even if they were not specifically pledged as collateral for the loan.

For example, let's say that John takes out a loan from a bank and pledges his car as collateral. The loan agreement includes a dragnet clause. If John defaults on the loan, the bank can not only repossess his car but also seize any other assets he owns, such as his house or savings account.

Another example is a business owner who takes out a loan to purchase equipment and pledges the equipment as collateral. If the loan agreement includes a dragnet clause, the lender can also seize any other assets of the business, such as inventory or accounts receivable, in the event of a default.

The dragnet clause is often used by lenders to provide additional security for loans, but it can be risky for borrowers who may lose all of their assets if they default on the loan.

@texaslawhopefully: Yeah, I mean it could happen to the senate and house like it did to Obama but if he keeps his overall approval rating up, even if someone does not like individual policies it's compromise: https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trumps-approval-ratings-break-records-democrats-back-him-2018900

@Dkk: Fair. My guess is (if the DNC is smart) dems change there messaging to be more appealing to moderates, they start winning and they hopefully that encourages republicans to move back to the center.
Dkk
18:47
Yeah, exactly.

i for one STILL cannot believe donnie is prez. like gobsmacked. how did that happen? was it getting gunned down that sealed the deal?

@llama: This was the best explanation that I read for it: https://samharris.substack.com/p/the-reckoning

@GapingVariousTurkey: same bro. im not worried cause yolo, but i think an honest talk with each applicable school will allow them to give leeway
texaslawhopefully
18:48
But, yeah, I think many people were shocked
any UK law students?
18:49
@texaslawhopefully: when I have some time i will read, thanks fren. Regardless of whichever of the two [T or H] are in the WH, I truly believe expectations will be looked back on as over worried.

@thanatologist: Kentucky?

@llama: I don't know man, maybe I've been reading way too much news but I'm worried in a way I wasn't with Biden, or would've been with Harris
18:53
@texaslawhopefully: looking back, the Rs were freaking out saying Biden was going to end the country, and the Ds were freaking out during DJTs 1st term. Neither did exceptionally bad or good, IMHO. At the end of the day, the rest of the GOV (Judaical and Congress) really put a damper on grandiose executive plans. Finally, we all know Donnie is a talker: he anchors (ie tarrifs), he talks shit, he says he will do X and never does. news eats that shit up, but I think most will not ever come to pass

I really think it's a lot of political theater right now. I think a huge percentage of these EO's are just going to be shot down.

the news sells fear. that is their product (hence why u see COPD, heart meds, stress/ antidepressants adverts during primtime). We know trump has a big mouth, and when he opens it, he spews nonsense which gets funneled into ur ears- ratings skyrocket.
18:56
not COPD. my bad ^
dem messaging is lightyears behind MAGA messaging, part of this can be blamed on foreign governments boosting the MAGA party to destabilize the country, but the democrat old guard is so far behind MAGA strategy
18:57
@Dkk: exactly.
dems need to give way to modern leftists like AOC and bernie
18:58
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: AOC is my crushhhh
Dkk
18:59
It's amazing cus in 2008/2012 people were even wondering if the Republican party was still going to be a thing and then yeah, MAGA just took over.
but unfortunately the left purity tests all of its members to death, for the left their candidates have to be perfect, for the right their candidates are basically forgiven for anything. it makes it a hard sell for upcoming talent to attach to the left wing when they will cancel their politicians for any perceivable social slight
texaslawhopefully
18:59
Yeah, unfortunately that happened in part with Harris and the far-Left
19:00
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: see with takes like that, it is no wonder how you are called Knowledgeable Wasp
ie a lot of the left didnt vote for harris because they thought biden was too soft on israel for the I/P situation. but now they have trump who will literally hand netanyahu bombs to genocide palestinians
texaslawhopefully

And even on that issue, though, I thought Biden was very moderate, whereas the far-Left just had unrealistic expectations of where he was going to end up
