It's really a catch 22 for him so he's trying any and everything. He knows it will destroy him when he has to pay this. His empire is a hollow shell leveraged to the tits.
If when the state starts selling these properties they're gonna have to sell them all and even then it won't be enough so he'll have any trump org royalties garnished too until kingdom come.
His only hope is to somehow delay until he's president again (FML)
There’s pretty much zero possibility of that happening. And, for the record, there’s also almost no possibility of him winning this appeal, either.
I really hope they’re watching closely though. Imagine Russia or China or North Korea giving him the money…
The Chubb group (who financed the ~$90M bond in the E Jean Carrol case)? That company’s CEO is in charge of financing several Russian oil companies and a bunch of other shady shit. Oh, Trump already got a bunch of dirty money.
Thing is, that’s all they’re willing to give him, which may indicate that he’s run out of usefulness to them.
Or they just want him to sweat a little.
That’s a good sign! I’d really love to see his house of cards collapse.
