Donald Trump was supposed to have to post a $464 million bond by Monday or else the state of New York could begin collecting on the massive civil fraud judgment leveled against him earlier this year. An appeals court bailed him out, blocking collection of the judgment and giving the former president 10 days to post a drastically reduced $175 million bond.
The order is a huge win for Trump, whose assets were going to be subject to seizure if he couldn’t post nearly half-a-billion dollars by Monday. His lawyers said last week he wasn’t going to be able to come up with the money after 30 underwriters rejected him. The New York Times has reported that Trump is expected to be able to scrounge the new, reduced $175 million bond
And there goes every last shred of hope I had for America.
The country is fucking doomed, and it’ll drag the rest of the world into chaos with it. We’re all fucked.
We were fucked long before this clown showed up. If anything we should be grateful that he shine the light on it by being so obvious about it.
Time to start dragging billionaires into the streets.
Yes; no, well maybe partly; yes. Respectively
It hurts me that I wrote grateful… if I had considered my reply longer than I took to take a dump I wouldn’t have written it that way. My apologies
I understand what you meant, but I also think we shouldn’t be grateful to him for anything really.
Edited to add that I meant to begin by saying “apology accepted”.
You’re smarter while taking a dump than most people are while voting for who represents them, as well as being much more willing to rethink things when questioned.
