Trump can't make bond

Post by Lester The Nightfly » Mon Mar 18, 2024 1:16 pm

So it goes. Happens numerous times daily all over the country. In many ways that makes Trump not all that different than some black kid in Mississippi getting in deep over getting caught smoking a joint. The kid may lose his car, Trump may lose a skyscraper or two. Life goes on.

Looks like Elon didn't pony up any $ after Trump's blow job last week...
Trump and his company need to post a bond for the full amount by next week in order to stop New York Attorney General Letitia James from being able to collect while he appeals. They've asked an appeals court to step in in the meantime and said Monday that they have not had any success getting a bond.

"Defendants’ ongoing diligent efforts have proven that a bond in the judgment’s full amount is 'a practical impossibility,'" the filing said. "These diligent efforts have included approaching about 30 surety companies through 4 separate brokers."

You gotta admit the Republicans are not that bright. Why isn't GOP leadership doing all they can get away with behind closed doors to get Trump locked up. Then the coast is clear to nominate anyone younger than 60 to beat Biden in a landslide.

We all know the Democrats and Republicans don't speak to each other. Are the Republicans not speaking to each other too? Does everyone at the RNC suck at chess?

During his trial, Trump told the court that he had $400 million on hand that he could apply toward a bond. Since then, he lost two high-profile cases, pushing his liabilities over half a billion dollars. He has paid a nearly $92 billion bond amount as he appeals a jury’s verdict in the defamation lawsuits brought by columnist E. Jean Carroll.

Gee this makes me so happy. The walls are closing in on the orange boy.

He would also be 1.5 billion dollars richer if he had just invested instead of whatever he has done to get here.

Maybe set aside 150 million for sexual harassment settlements and his life becomes much less complicated.

Just toss his ass in jail if he can't make bond. Is that not what would happen to anyone else in the same situation?

Since it’s civil wouldn’t we jump to seizing Trump tower or something?

The court will tear apart his company. Remember, this was the corporation suit. They are getting hard to keep straight.

That would be correct. No jail. Pretty simple, in order for his case to be considered for appeal he needed to post bond equal to the amount of the case judgement. If he is unable to do so by next Monday the case is no longer eligible for appeal and the fine issued in court judgement will be carried out. The AGNY can then seize property to satisfy the fine.

As for Musk, there are reports that Trump met with him to finance satisfying the fine and Musk said no.

I've been on NY Times reading comments about this...
As a Conservative - I believe each of us has the obligation to fulfill our personal responsibilities

it’s why I like both Nikki Haley and Donald Trump - and why I dislike Progressives like Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Alejandro Mayorkas.

Donald Trump needs to step up and do the right thing - take personal responsibility - and pay the Amount Determined By The Court.

Even if it means he has to sell some of his assets or property.

Donald Trump - needs to show honor and respect - and not make weak excuses.

Trump Needs To Pay the amount in full and on time..........

.........or he will loose my vote in November
He should not be treated in worse or any better than any other citizen. If he can't meet the bond requirement, the Attorney General should start seizing assets.

If were you or me that is exactly what the court would be doing.
Trump's financial situation has very real national security implications. No one else in his position could qualify for a security clearance. President Biden should deny him classified briefings unless and until he accounts for the source of all money he has received, directly or indirectly, since leaving office. The likelihood that he is indebted to a foreign power is simply too great to ignore.
Trump should flee the country to avoid this "unjust" prosecution. Him fleeing the country, never to return, solves a lot of problems. He should take his family with him.

Ya' know, it just occurred to me depending on how contracts were drawn up he may have to sell his jet. It's almost certainly considered an asset of TrumpCo because It's almost certain he was taking a tax write off on it. If he attempts to spin it as a personal asset then he'll have to do a whole lotta 'splainin to the IRS about the discrepancy.

Never let it be said I'm not a man of compassion. I think I still have a couple of bucks remaining on an old MTA card I keep in my wallet for when I visit Chicago I'd could give him so he can still get around...

This kind of teasing is just cruel. I'm sure he would sell the jet to his campaign.

Um, excuse me, but you guys seem to be forgetting THE POLLZZZZZ!!!! THIS IS A WITCH HUNT!!!!

A prominent poster walked away from Trump briefly because he was a piece of shit only to go crawling back to him because he was charged for being a piece of shit.
Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.
