New York attorney general Letitia James: “Donald Trump is finally facing accountability for his lying, cheating, and staggering fraud. Because no matter how big, rich, or powerful you think you are, no one is above the law.”
$50,000,000 - Trump legal fees (so far)
$88,000,000 - Trump total jury verdict to E Jean Carroll
$355,000,000 - Trump fine from Judge Engoron
$96,000,000 - Trump interest addon from Judge Engoron
$148,000,000 - Giuliani settlement with Shae Moss
$787,500,000 - Fox settlement to Dominion
$1,524,500,000 – TOTAL - ONE AND A HALF BILLION DOLLARS AND COUNTING
The icing on the cake right now would be his trophy mail order bride loudly, visibly exiting stage left. Surely even MAGA diehards realize when the ones who were in it for the money vamoose their $30 go fund me donation would be better spent on a PBR 30-pack than Donny’s redemption.
I question just how realistic it is that Trump etc. will be able to sell any real estate to satisfy his debts to Carroll and the State of New York. It's highly unlikely all his properties aren't already leveraged to the hilt with various financial institutions, and by law, said institutions' exposure must be taken into consideration and reasonably satisfied before Trump realizes a single dime from liquidating any of his interests. My guess is the splashiest yard sale in the history of bankruptcy courts everywhere takes place within the year, leaving Trump with no cash-flow, no income beyond what he can squeeze out of the RNC and gullible small donors, and still beholden to making evermore burdensome interest payments, at least, to the now-extremely uneasy banks and/or Russian loan-sharks who almost certainly will call his paper while there's still something left for their partial recompense.
Trump is a schlemiel. He was born into opportunity very, very few have and turned it Into a soup sandwich. So many off ramps to do it right, yet he managed to turn his life into a sordid mess from failed enterprises to an insurrection. His adulteries are catching up with him. His cons have come home to roost. His disregard of the Constitution and our laws are on trial. Perhaps his apologists will reflect on the moment before they tithe on the GoFundMe site. Perhaps...
So besides the knuckle dragging cult members, anyone have any bets as to who will bail his sorry ass out so that he may be reinstalled? Putin? MBS? Leonard Leo? The Heritage Foundation? All of the above?
Now that he’s prohibited from borrowing money from NY banks, he will probably look to countries like Russia for (more) funding; rendering him even more beholden to them. The potential conflicts interests alone are the reason he must never again be POtuS.
Not just "the Donald". Ivanka and his two little boys all are in hot water over the emails and other evidence showing that they were part and parcel of the financial fraud.
How do you define "crime family"? Look at all those who Trump pardoned in the last hours of his White House crime spree. His son in law's dad. Roger Stone. Lots of other embezzlers, murderers, and swinders. People he admired or owed something to.
Too bad about the retarded House Republicans that helped him with the Jan 6 coup attempt. It didn't work so I guess he felt he didn't owe them anything. They still are working real hard for him though.
What about Contempt of Court charges? Is Trump ever going to see the inside of a jail cell solely because of something he said?
He doesn't have contempt for the Court, he has contempt for everyone except the guy he sees in the mirror.
"this week in stupid" will run tomorrow

Sending him to the poorhouse is nice work. Now let’s see him get got for January 6 insurrection and fake electors.
And the GOP still wants him as 47. Unbelievable.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
I’ve got an idea! A penny pitch. He could appear in public and we could throw pennies at him at the velocity of our choice.

I keep dreaming that one morning we’ll wake up and he will have skedaddled for Moscow. Buh-bye Donny!
1. Does the fact that the award is $450 million and that number includes 45 a sign that even higher powers hate your guts?
2. I looked at that GoFundMe site. There’s a lot of delusion there but a few brave souls put in some pretty funny comments
A shit blizzard… not a good visual… but couldn’t happen to a more deserving shitbag!
I love he smell of schadenfreude in the morning!

This whole thing is simply delicious. The hits just keep on coming….next is New York!
I just checked and now the GoFund me is up to $53, 582. Please be sure to add those who donated into “this week in stupid”. 🤦♀️
