It's time for Donald Trump to pay the $454 million fraud fine, and for the first time in his miserable life, the former President will be *held accountable for his actions. So, of course, Trump kicked off his morning screaming into the void at Truth Social. Trump is mad. He's MAGA mad. And, of course, he's blaming President Biden, but it was Trump and his adult children who inflated the value of his properties to secure loans.
"These are Rigged cases, all coordinated by the White House and DOJ for purposes of Election Interference," Trump falsely said. "THE NUMBER ENGORON SET IS FRAUDULENT. It should be ZERO, I DID NOTHING WRONG! The D.A. Case, that I am going to today, should be dismissed. No crime. Our Country is CORRUPT!"
"Crooked Pols!!!" the twice-impeached former President insisted. "There should be no FINE. Did nothing wrong! Why should I be forced to sell my "babies" because a CORRUPT NEW YORK JUDGE & A.G. SET A FAKE AND RIDICULOUS NUMBER."
"TAKE HIS CASH SO THAT HE CAN'T USE IT TO DEFEAT HIS POLITICAL OPPONENT, CROOKED JOE BIDEN." ELECTION INTERFERENCE, ALL HEADED UP BY THE WHITE HOUSE - THIS INCLUDES FANI AND THE CORRUPT MANHATTAN D.A. BRAGG ADMITTED THERE WAS NO CRIME, WAS MORTIFIED BY WHAT MARK POMERANCE DID - AND HE SHOULD BE," he wrote. "WITCH HUNT!"
"VOTER INTIMIDATION by the White House THUGS, and it will never work!" he posted.
"People must continue to speak of, and remember, that the Engoron number of $450,000,000 for doing absolutely NOTHING WRONG is a big part of the crime being perpetrated against me by Crooked Joe Biden and his political Hacks and Thugs," he falsely wrote again. "Engoron’s fraudulent valuation of Mar-a-Lago for $18,000,000, when it is worth 50 to 100 times that amount, is another piece of the Election Interference HOAX. It’s all a giant and totally illegal Witch Hunt against Biden’s Political Opponent!"
Well, that was packed full of lies. And Trump never self-funded his campaigns as promised, and we can be sure he wasn't planning on doing it this time, either. From his posts, we can assume that no one is bailing him out. For sure, Fred can't do it as he did in the old days. He's dead. Donald stands alone.
They won't bail him out even for a 15% coupon:
Welp, so this just happened.
A New York appeals court on Monday paused for 10 days a massive civil fraud judgment against former President Donald Trump, and sharply reduced the bond he would have to post to obtain a longer stay to $175 million.
UPDATE: Yeah, the appellate court gave him a break, but he's got more problems ahead.
