Scarlet Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 More from the paradigm of democratic principles. Casting doubt on the validity of our elections with zero proof, threatening to jail political opponents, lobbying the Supreme Court for complete and total immunity so that any action even those that "go over the line" can't be prosecuted, commiting to pardon those who violently interfered with the peaceful transfer of power, and saluting an alternative national anthem sung by the same insurrectionists while they were in prison. But he doesn't really mean his continual assault on democracy. It's all about the context. Link to comment

Got it. So because Trump is a wannabe fascist piece of s#!t you rush to the defense of misinformation? Got it. 14 hours ago, Danny Bateman said: Anybody else care to explain to me how that a$$h@!e is the victim here? I'd really love it explained in greater detail. I really didn't think the "Donald J. Trump, perpetual victim" movement needed more steam, but it chugs along. Come on man. You're arguing against ghosts. 1 Link to comment

I.e. with disdain, because they sucked enough to get caught. 1 Link to comment

Trump has to cut anyone who might expose illegal activities such as transferring RNC cash to Trump and his legal team. Trump will milk the GOP and get what he can out of it and leave it in ruins. Time for Liz, Hogan and Romney to start a new party This is on page 260…. The election is still 7.5 months away… I guess the thread title nailed it!!! 1 Link to comment

And one should be retired and drinking a cold one on the beautiful Delaware beach and the other should be in jail I long for the day when there are 2 equally qualified candidates in both parties who had to fight there way through the primaries against other qualified candidates and it comes down to a coin flip. One would think 2028 would be that year, but the GOP, or TBP (Trump Branded Party) will nominate trump2.0. So we are probably a decade or 2 from having good candidates on both sides again. 1 Link to comment
knapplc Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Then sell your assets if you don't have the cash on hand. That's what any of the rest of us would have to do if we lost a judgment like this. You don't get special treatment because you claim to be a billionaire. 2 Link to comment

It's important to point out that Trump had alienated a huge swath of banks, lawyers, and investors long before his Presidency. His reputation for dishonesty and non-payment was not a political hit job, it's just who he is and always has been. 1 1 Link to comment

Correct, which is why he went overseas to Deutsche Bank, and why I suspect after that relationship soured he had to go further east and seek Russian money. Which is why he's in bed with Putin (no pun intended). Update: Link to comment

In the rape case he had to post the judgment amount plus interest so he could appeal the ruling. So I think you have to put up the full amount if you plan to appeal. Of course in that case he just went right back to defaming her so he willfully jumped right back into legal peril, again. Some folks are just slow learners. Link to comment

The bond is to get immediate cash to pay the fine. It will take some time to sell any assets, since necessarily they will have to be quite large (like a golf resort) to cover that kind of fine. It's understandable that a billionaire wouldn't have that kind of liquid cash on hand. That would all be invested, in his case likely in property. The interesting question is how much of the assets that bear his name are actually owned by him, and how much are just leased or borrowed. I'm guessing his "empire" is a house of cards propped up by paperwork rather than actual ownership. He's basically playing Three Card Monte with banks. 1 1 Link to comment
