Popular Post Social Media Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 Donald Trump, the former president, is facing difficulty in securing a $464 million bond required in a New York civil fraud case. This bond is necessary for him to continue his appeal process. Trump's lawyers stated that finding a bonding company willing to guarantee such a large amount is practically impossible. They attempted to negotiate with several insurance companies, but were unsuccessful in securing the bond. The $464 million penalty was imposed by a New York judge who found Trump guilty of falsely inflating assets to obtain better loan deals. Along with the monetary penalty, Trump was also banned from running any businesses in the state for three years. Although the business ban was temporarily paused by a judge last month, Trump's appeal still requires him to either pay the full amount in cash or secure the bond. According to Trump's lawyers, bonding companies typically issue bonds of such magnitude only to the largest public companies, not individuals or privately held businesses. The lawyers also stated that bond companies do not accept hard assets like real estate as collateral, requiring cash or cash equivalents for the bond. Failure to pay the fraud judgment could result in the seizure of Trump's assets by the New York attorney general. Additionally, interest on the penalty is accruing at a significant rate until the amount is paid. Trump's legal troubles extend beyond this case, as he was ordered to pay $83 million in another lawsuit after losing a defamation case to E. Jean Carroll, who accused him of sexual abuse. Despite Trump's estimated net worth and liquid assets, the substantial penalties he faces pose a significant financial challenge. 19.03.24 Source 1 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Walker88 Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 No lenders will loan him that kind of money? Could it be the six bankruptcies that has lenders hesitant? Maybe all the lawyers and subcontractors he's stiffed? Lenders couldn't find $455 million of unencumbered assets to use as collateral? I'm beginning to think maybe he's no more a billionaire than he's 6'3", 235 lbs, has a 33,000 sf apartment, and is like...really really smart. I fear soon we'll hear injecting Lysol doesn't cure Covid! Is trump like Christopher Hitchens once said about another conman, that trump is so full of BS that if you gave him an enema, you could bury him in a matchbox? Perhaps Mohammed bin Salman has his own polling agency and sees trump behind Biden, so the bloated one has no more influence to peddle? Elon? Elon? Are you there for me? Jeff Yass? Don't you want Tiktok? I can give it to you. Ken Griffin? I'll keep carried interest. 17 1 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ozimoron Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 What does that tell you?" Cohen asked. "It tells you that he's not nearly as rich as he sold himself to the American people, that he — even at the trial he told the judge he had at least $400 million in cash. If that's true, post it, and if it's not true, it could be a perjury charge." https://www.rawstory.com/trump-bond/ 7 2 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ozimoron Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 Kirschner added that the news is a sign that Trump's claim of being of in possession of $14 billion in assets was likely a lie. "He is now being asked to put up a bond to secure basically a half-a-billion-dollar judgment, which would represent about one-twenty eighth of his entire assets as Donald Trump [and his lawyer Alina Habba] say," Kirschner said. Kirschner went on to say that if Trump's assets are valued at the level he says they are, "I would think insurance companies and sureties would be beating down his door to do business with him." https://www.rawstory.com/trump-tower-letitia-james/ 4 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chomper Higgot Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 I’ve said for a long while, it is firm belief that any member of this forum who’s assets are greater than their liabilities is wealthier than Trump. I strongly advise his supporters don’t send him a single penny of their own hard earned money. The poor excuse for a man is a grifter. 4 2 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TorquayFan Posted March 19 Popular Post Share Posted March 19 Trump has had 'insurmountable' difficulties with the further $464 million required by the New York judgement. The Court are firmly bound to recover the $464 million from his assets, but such recovery will be at 'fire sale' values and insofaras these assets are not unencumbered by mortgages. Given that the penalties in the NY case were to punish DT's frauds by overvaluation of assets, this does not augur well for DT. Will he be ruined? Is he in fact, a 'Billionaire' at all - the NY case suggests his financial status is not what he or his lawyers claim. Trump's credibility disappears in a vortex as this goes on, real time, with $80 million of interest being added to his woes daily. Surely his Election hopes are doomed . . . . ? Worth noting too that Trump's demeanour in recent speeches is looking distinctly more odd than usual. 5 3 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mutt Daeng Posted March 19 Popular Post Share Posted March 19 (edited) I wonder why son-in-law Jared doesn't lend him some of the $2 billion he got from the Saudi's for services rendered.

Popular Post Eric Loh Posted March 19 Popular Post Share Posted March 19 Tick tok time is running out old Donny. NY AG will start going after Trump’s prized properties should he failed to make the deadline to post the bond. He will be forced to sell his properties in a fire sale and sell them cheap. History of frauds and cons finally caught up with him. Karma is such a bitch. 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post thaibeachlovers Posted March 19 Popular Post Share Posted March 19 Whatever happens, it is just going to make Trump more popular and garner more votes. Every time the so called "justice system" is used to attack him it only serves to increase his likelihood of winning in November. $83 million for an "accusation" of sexual abuse and defamation! C'mon man, that abuse by the legal system. Every time I read nonsense like this it just makes me hope more for him to win and get revenge on the lot of them. It's gonna be sweet! 5 7 2 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a tad steep. So much for the Amercian justice legal system. The best system the ultra wealthy can buy. It's a good job he's going to walk it in November.

Seems a tad steep You shouldn't comment if you don't understand how it works. To appeal a court decision against you, you need to put up in cash or bond for the total amount plus any interest that would accrue while the appeal goes forward. It makes perfect sense, as it prevents the losers (like Trump) from delaying the payout the courts have already levied against them. 5 1 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
