Yes, billionaires are always selling silly NFTs that portray themselves as things they are too stupid and too cowardly to be, like fighter pilots and astronauts. Billionaires also cut up the suits they wore when getting their mugshot, and then sell the threads to their cult.

 

trump does not have the funds to cover the $5 million + $83.3 million plus what Judge Engoron is going to assess him on the 31st. Despite inheriting $412 million from 'dad', and receiving a massive allowance every month from age 3 until his father died (according to his niece Mary), donny is a bit cash short. He also owes a lot via the SIVs put together for him at Deutsche Bank, so servicing his debt plus paying the penalties is going to have the guy cutting up more suits and hoping his goobers are maxed out on their Mom's credit cards yet. Lucky for him he is a bloated land whale, so his suits have a lot of material.

 

It is likely NY will simply seize his NYC properties and auction them off. Of course trump will still owe the debt on the properties.  It will be fun to watch when a crane rolls up Fifth AVe and rips his silly name off the front of his garish tower. All the Russians inside will get the shakes, as will the Chinese bank that has 3 floors in it.

83 million to Trump is like $800 to most of the broke dems on this forum... 555555

I'm sure his goobers fap to pics of donny and believe all his lies about his being...like really really rich...but those same clowns suck up his silly NFTs and and pieces of the suit he wore when booked and his mugshot taken in Georgia. Why does he need to sell those?  A billionaire would give them to his sycophants, as the few million he made schlepping them should be chump change to him.

 

I seriously doubt trump has the $5+83.3+=<$370 million he is on the hook for come Wednesday when Judge Engoron gets finished with the convicted sex offender and convicted bank and insurance fraudster. Also, he couldn't even get a surety to post his $5 million; no way anyone is going to front the pathological deadbeat $83 million.

 

In my hedge fund career, I spend a good deal of the time in Manhattan. A couple of good friends and prime brokers worked at Deutsche Bank, and I learned a lot about trump's business and his debt load...plus how DB structured it.

 

The orange bloated land whale is not what he claims.

“When the student is ready the teacher will appear." ~~saying

 

My mentor of decades no more selected me than Cohen selected Trump. Rather, I decided who I was comfortable with in life, who aligned with my thinking, just like we all do, just like Orange did. Just like the Republican Party did.

 

My great mentor in life was a Menninger's Fellow, who prior to being awarded by Karl Menninger himself, before becoming a psychiatrist, was a psychologist and before that an MD and before that a teacher and before that a freedom fighter imprisoned into solitary confinement by Perón.

 

Just as the orange sex abuser selected a mentor after his own character. Nobody made Trump the way he is but him. No one made you the way you are but you. No one made me the way I am but me.

Trump lawyer Alina Habba demands details from judge on ‘troubling’ allegations he mentored E. Jean Carrol’s attorney 

Published Jan. 29, 2024, 10:06 p.m. ET

 

Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alina Habba, demanded Monday that the judge presiding over E. Jean Carroll’s defamation case against the former president provide “all of the relevant facts” related to an alleged conflict of interest he had with the advice columnist’s lead counsel. 

 

A jury awarded Carroll $83.3 million in damages from Trump last week, before The Post learned from sources that Manhattan federal Judge Lewis Kaplan was once "mentor” to Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan, when they both worked together in the early 1990s at the Paul, Weiss Rifkin, Wharton & Garrison law firm in Midtown. with Ms. Kaplan in any capacity — especially if there was a mentor/mentee relationship — that fact should have been disclosed before any case involving these parties was permitted to proceed forward,” Habba wrote in a letter to the judge.

 

“Lew was like her mentor,” a former Paul Weiss partner told The Post about the dynamic between Lewis Kaplan and Roberta Kaplan when they worked together at the firm.

I've heard of people getting off charges when there are one or two. Statistically, the bigger the number, the lower the probability of acquittal.

Trump has 91 indictments to answer for. That puts him in the top 0.0001 % of people charged with felonies. It's fairly inconceivable he can be acquitted on all 91 charges. He'd have a better shot at winning a lottery.

Given the fatuous responses you have posted, I doubt you have the intelligence to comprehend basic probability and statistics. Trump is toast, unless mass insanity prevails, so he can pardon himself.

Alina Habba is lucky she is not in jail after lying to Kaplan about where she was.

A conflict of interest when the two worked together over 30 years ago? So what?

The jury decided the damages bill, not the judge or plaintiff's counsel.

The New York Post is owned by News Corporation. Their brand of "investigative journalism " is lies, gossip and innuendo.

Fox is owned by News Corporation too, and that media outlet settled with Dominion for $760 odd million, rather than face court.

And until the foreperson handed her envelope to the clerk, who opened it up — she had trouble reading something, handed it to Judge Kaplan," recalled Birnbach. "And now, I'm imagining all kinds of bad things and Judge Kaplan asked her 'Is that an 'M' and what does it stand for?'

 

"And she said, 'Yes. Million.'"

I will surmise, from the available info, that there is a former partner at Paul Weiss who knew both Judge Kaplan and Robbie Kaplan during their time together at the firm who is now suggesting that their relationship was not so professionally benign as the parties, or at least Ms. Kaplan's team, is suggesting. Maybe someone with a grudge -- who knows?

 

Judge Kaplan has as yet responded to the formal request.

 

I will note to keep things on track that Ms. Kaplan is out gay and most likely was during her time at the firm.

No doubt about it, Trump has a grudge, it $86.3 million worth of a grudge.

According to the article, they worked in the same firm during 2 years in the early 90's, so around 30 years ago.

The civil case could not prove rape beyond a reasonable doubt! A criminal 

case has to prove that not a civil procedure , No rape!

“The jurors weren't required to explain why, under the definitions they were given, they concluded Trump sexually abused Carroll but were less convinced he raped her”.

Judge in E. Jean Carroll Case: Yes, Donald Trump Is a Rapist

 

"Trump’s team had requested a new trial in the case, arguing that the $5 million in damages he was ordered to pay Carroll was excessive, because he was only charged with sexual abuse. The jury had not found that Trump “raped” Carroll, a talking point Trump’s team often parroted.
 

But Judge Lewis Kaplan called Trump’s semantic argument “entirely unpersuasive.” He clarified that the jury found that the former president did indeed “rape” Carroll based on the common definition of the word."

You need to see witnesses for someone to be convicted of rape?

 

In this case, Ms. Carroll confided to friends about the rape, back in the day. Yes, I know, you are going to say that she planned for Trump to win the presidency, so she could sue him.

In many cases there simply isn't a need to make a comment as the quote speaks for itself. Most often the quote encapsulates what I'm thinking better than I can. The other time when a comment is not needed is a self explanatory rebuttal to a claim of fact.

“Jurors in the E. Jean Carroll lawsuit against Donald Trump found him liable of sexual abuse — and not rape — likely because they expected “Law & Order”-style forensic evidence to prove the more serious claim, legal experts told The Post on Wednesday”

Contrary to your claim above, I don't see anything in your cited report saying Carroll or her attorneys or her civil case had anything to do with the passage of the law.

 

Hoffman isn't even mentioned by name in the article.

 

Though it's clear that passage of the law was helpful to Carroll's ability to file a new civil case.

 

"Within hours of the law going into effect in late November, Carroll filed a battery and defamation civil suit against Trump. (She filed a separate defamation suit in 2019 that has been postponed.)"

Manhattan federal Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan worked together in the early 1990s. A source indicated that the judge was once Roberta Kaplan’s mentor.

 

This is called a conflict of interest and constitutes grounds for a reversal in an appeals court.
