    Trump was just barely able to find a bonding company willing to front the more than 91 million in the E. Jean Carroll II case and according to multiple news reports, investors are pissed as all hell that the company even agreed to bond for him because they know when the appeal fails, Caroll will come collecting that money and the Trump will dodge and delay and delay and delay and then it's death-march for that bonding company. That said, we must assume he had to front 20% up and that 20% he will never see again. Ouch, that's gotta hurt.

    William Cohen (former Wall Street banker, one who really IS rich): "he's a lousy credit risk, he's proven that over many decades now. He's proven that he doesn't pay off creditors, he's proven that he doesn't pay off contractors, he's proven that he doesn't pay off sub-contrators, he's proven he doesn't even pay off his own lawyers."

    YEPP

    But with the revelations that his attorneys' claim (with his permission) that he cannot find a company to put up the 465+ million bond can only mean one of a small number of things.

    1.) He is lying, he has the money and is jerking everyone's chain. Only, lying about a bond moves this from a civil issue to a criminal issue, and he knows this, even as stupid as Trump is.

    2.) He has enough real estate to cover the bond, but is unwilling to sell anything because of his pride and ego, so he is hoping to burn the house down. LOL. What a ****ing idiot.

    3.) He is really, really broke. On paper, he may even look like a multi-millionaire, but when you calculated his debt, he may actually be in the hole.

    In 2016, he claimed on TV that he was worth at least 10 Billion USD. Where did all that money go? Did his sugardaddy Vladimir call in all of his chips? Do peeing whores really cost that much? Did the people who wanted to buy his stolen nuclear secrets decide he's not worth it? Is "Melanie" really that expensive?

    This all has implications for his adoring Trumpian sychophants who are just so sure that he is filthy rich.

    If he is so loaded and sooooo sure he could win appeal, then why has he not posted bond?

    Does anyone here think that playing chicken with the justice system is a good idea?

    As of coming Monday, the clock is up for him. Time to put up or shut up. He should have prepared for this months ago, but he did not.

    The *********ker deserves everything he gets.

    I am just loving this circus. It's the best entertainment out there.

    G-d bless America!

    Given the downturn in commercial real estate values, he's probably got everything mortgaged close to the maximum loan to value ratio that the lenders will allow.

    I think that NY should seize his assets and sell them at assessed valuation from his tax forms. They'll go fast. Won't cover his debts though.

    All I can say is he's like a cockroach. Don't under estimate his ability to escape from danger.

    But they do make a satisfying sound when squashed.

    They are probably all already mortgaged to the hilt. That's why none of the underwriters for his bond wanted to accept them as collateral. Looks like the house of cards is finally coming down. What else would be expected from the self-proclaimed "king of debt"?

    I heard that he could get a few billion from his stake in truth social if it goes public.
    Our society is so rigged to benefit the rich that our only real hope of getting rid of trump is at the ballot box.
    Let’s hope there are still enough Americans who care more about their country than pandering to such a deplorable character.

    Yes. But let's wait to see his guts on the floor before celebrating.

    Donald Trump Needs Cash. DWAC To Vote On Trump Media Merger This Week.

    If DWAC shareholders approve the merger Friday, TMTG will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Digital World. DWAC will then change its name to Trump Media & Technology Group, according to regulatory filings. If the merger is completed, Trump's 90% stake in TMTG could be valued at around $4 billion, based on DWAC's current stock price.

    Stock valued at $4 billion is one thing. Turning it into cash is another.

    And none of those is going to hold up on appeal and the forth coming eighth amendment appeal is going to put at least an pause on this legalized theft.

    Isn’t it cool how the govt can destroy someone they don’t like unleashing the full power of the Fed govt and activist judges?

    But don’t worry. Has NOTHING to do with election interference. They’re just doing their “jobs”:)

    Sincere question for Trump supporters - are you concerned about the national security of our country with a POTUS candidate who faces financial ruin? Are you at all concerned about Trump getting financial assistance for the bond from an adversarial actor/country?

    They probably already are. Golf courses look like wealth but they are poor investments and apparently his have been losing money for years

    They're likely all already holding down 1st and 2nd liens.

    I am much more concerned with New York's attempt to prevent Trump from appealing a decision that is so obvious fraudulent that they know full well that once it goes to appeal it is almost certainly going to be reversed. The sad thing is the idiots can't see that they are burning down there own freaking house.

    This communist bloc thinking has got to go. I'm sure a lot of Russians cheered Putin's Navalny assassination.
    As is common in communist countries, the next step after lawfare is out and out murder.

    In other relevant news:
    It never fails. As soon as blacks start getting a leg up as they did under Trump, some how they get wrapped up in stupid lawfare cases engineered by their white masters in the White House.

    I understand your feelings on that score. I'm really very - sincerely - interested in whether or not a POTUS taking money from a foreign adversary would be of concern. If you wish, remove Trump from the equation and make it hypothetical.
