The Trump payment clock is ticking as of today - it's officially $454 million. Will he come up with the $$?

Worse yet, if he doesn’t, it’s $87000/day interest. That sucks.

The Canadian news claimed that Trump said that he has $500 million dolllars in liquid assets.

Then of course Trump claiming something should be taken with a grain of salt.

This is a very interesting situation. I often wonder if Anyone Ever receives the judgements they are awarded. Good question.

Not sure the accuracy of the reporting but I saw a news segment on TV earlier and apparently trump’s small donors have been giving him less financial backing. If true, good for them. Best to spend hard-earned money elsewhere.

Have a feeling Jared and Saudi Arabia will come to the rescue.

I’ll put it this way.
He will find a way to at least keep himself from further trouble.

Honestly. Trump’s woes, should be considered a possible threat to national security. If I were an uber wealthy man, I would see this as an opportunity to buy a US presidential candidate, and current leader of the GOP.

Interest is the least of Trump’s concern. Who’s dick he’s going to have to suck, is what he is likely most worried about.
He is not exactly humble, and has ZERO idea of how to do ANYTHING if he can’t dictate the dynamics. He only knows how to talk down to people.

Trump, and his financial supporters, WILL get their 30 pieces of silver. The only question is, which Devil Trump has to make a deal with, to get it.

Luckily he is known for “the art of the deal.”~

I believe that Elon Musk might loan Trump a cool $0.5 billion.

I believe the conspiracy theory that Elon Musk bought Twitter (X) for the soul purpose to un-ban Trump from Twitter.

Must be a slap in the face from Trump by declining the offer to reinstate his Twitter account. THE DUDE blew through $40–50 billions to help Trump, and instead he made his own social media website, called ”Truth Social”.

I also am wondering if Trump can get investor’s to start their own stock market outside of New York.

@YARNLADY Since you asked: A friend of mine hired a company to install her gutters about 25 years ago. The guy took her money and ran. She got a judgement from small claims court against him. She has never seen a dime of that money.

@chyna My car was hit by a drunk driver a long time ago and I consulted an attorney to ask what my choices were, as far as getting the criminal to pay for my car repair. The attorney told me “you can wallpaper your wall with judgements, but you can’t make them pay.” I’ll always remember that.

As of 6 days ago, according to Newsweek, trumps Go Fund Me has raised 84K for his 355 million debt. Here is the article
I think these are the same people that send Jim Bakker, a fake televangelist cheat their last dollars from their Social Security checks.

Remember Trump’s company are now controlled by a court appointed monitor. I believe she can sell any and all properties owned by Trump Organization to cover the judgement if Trump doesn’t pay.

DELAY DELAY DELAY and Trump Towers or something else could be sold.

@Tropical_Willie He “might” really be working out a deal with Melania. When the shit hit the fan on his legal troubles, she started bugging him to change the conditions of their prenup so she still received a LOT of money & since she knows where ALL the bodies are buried, he was working out a new prenup with her.

@RedDeerGuy1 At one point he was claiming that he had $600 mil in liquid assets. That’s impossible because he’s NOT worth $600 mil if you included ALL his assets!!! He wouldn’t borrow from Musk for any reason as he HATES him!!! He hates him because he’s jealous that Musk is worth MORE than he is & he will NEVER catch him.

@LadyMarissa I’m so glad you got Melania’s name correct because trump apparently can’t remember her name. He called her Mercedes here. Lovely man. ~

Tropical_Willie's avatar

@elbanditoroso I saw interest alone was $114,000 a day ! For NY fraud case.

Trump is toast . . . .

MrGrimm888's avatar

@chyna Do you honestly believe that she is more than a car, to him?

Tropical_Willie's avatar

I only see him drive golf carts . . .is there a Mercedes golf cart??

MrGrimm888's avatar

^I don’t KNOW, but I know.
Ya know?

mazingerz88's avatar

Maybe trump meant to say “my sadist” but it came out Mercedes…

YARNLADY's avatar

He deliberately says something “noteworthy” so the press will post his name all over the place. The man is a consumate publicity hound.
Biden’s people are just catching on – they put wrong words/names in his teleprompter.

Aster's avatar

@yarnlady I thought Biden has dementia? Why would he want wrong words in his teleprompter? I notice Bidens lack of responses much more than incorrect wording.

Tropical_Willie's avatar

@Aster Biden taught himself not to stutter, hence the response timing.

Hi @Aster. Good to see you back.
