• Donald Trump has to cut a fat check, and his appeal of the E. Jean Carroll verdict won’t delay that.
  • Within 30 days of the judge’s written judgment, Trump has to turn over either cash or a bond.
  • While he appeals the verdict, Carroll can’t touch that money — but neither can Trump.

    I’d like to name one. If there is anyone with 88 million to spare, that same person values money more than Trump.

      There were billionaires who donated as much Trump 2020 PACs so it’s not completely unreasonable. However those billionaires likely did so control political messaging, it’s not clear what they could gain here but I am not a billionaire.

      I highly doubt the money will come out of Trumps personal funds, he has been fundraising for years and will likely continue to use those funds to pay for things.

          He’s received plenty of warnings but no repercussions. So he will continue stealing from charities and misusing campaign funds until there is an actual consequence.

      ElMu pissed away $44 BILLION on Twitter to take over and destroy a public information spreading platform, do you really think that someone on his level wouldn’t toss away $88 million to own the potential US president?
