Eh I'm not shocked they granted the request, it's not really that big an ask especially while the appeals are happening.

Except the law is literally written so people can't kick the can like the just successfully did.

Im glad my instant dislike in you has been validated again and again.
If I'm totally honest, we probably wind up with the NY AG seizing properties in ten days regardless of this. It's still an absolutely stupid amount of money that he might not be able to find. From what's been reported, banks don't want his properties as collateral so there's only so much he can do here. He's still likely super hosed, he'll just have no real excuse when the time comes to start selling poo poo off.

I'm still curious what happens if they seize everything and the value doesn't add up to half a bill. What then? Garner his wages?

I don’t see how saying things you disagree with in an ironic way in a dead comedy forum is doomering.

This is how echo chambers get formed. It’s ok to experience different viewpoints, it’s healthy even.

“Trump always wins” is hardly a unique or rare viewpoint in society though

I don’t think any of us are in any danger of forgetting about Trump and how he won in 2016, either

Same.

Sure he's been indicted, but not convicted. He's still a free man. He has to put up a bond but he could get it back on appeal. There hasn't been one single consequence that has actually stuck yet.

Honestly, it's like saying "Surely it won't hurt THIS time I ram my head into the brick wall as hard as I can!! It hurt all the other times but THIS time is different!!"

Lost trials ≠ actually had to pay for anything yet though. Ask Alex Jones about how devastating that $1 billion Sandy Hook defamation judgment has been to his life and career.

The only consequence of Trump losing on November 5, 2024 is that he has to wait another 4 years to try and become president again.

You think he'd say a guy who is 4 years older than him is too old to be president and then turn around and try to be president at the same age? You think his integrity is that broken?

He put up bond for an appeal, he hasn't paid her a dime.
