Lmao for real this dipshit is so easy to bait it’s incredible
Saudi bros just bought an incredible pair of $500million gold sneakers.
Guessing Saudi bros and Elon went halfsies
It will be fun when this statement is used to deny his request for a stay on his bond in court.
Right?
Like you can’t have it both ways. Either you’ve got the money for the bond, the money for the settlement, for both or neither. Which is it?
It’s like Schroedinger’s assets. If the IRS or Courts are looking, he’s got nothing. If banks are looking for collateral or he’s just trying to flash some money for his inept sycophants, he’s got billions.
Yes, this is what all the evidence showed in court. He owes the State of New York $460 million because he should have paid them taxes for years.
This is just reality catching up to him. He really was just lying. It’s not some brilliant scheme. It’s just lying.
He’s had a really impressive run for a con-man build that never bothered to level up his deception skills past lying.
Money is his accelerator, and for the longest time people have been willing to give him more. I get to experience this close up with my parents. That have nearly zero in the bank but give Broke Donny $100 this week and eat ramen every day, because he exhibits their values and is clearly smarter. 85 million other adults feel the same… it adds up.
And why level your deception when it’s working? In his mind this is a gamble that pays.
The best part is how his followers will turn on him once he starts to fail.
The key to their worship is untouchability. In their eyes, getting away with shit is the holy fire, the pure essence of status. Poor losers get in trouble, rich winners are teflon, and deserve to be, as befits their power.
All the gotcha moments and demonstrations of sociopathy and hypocrisy the media clung onto only boosted his popularity, because what his followers saw was an invulnerable superman that trouble just wouldn’t stick to. Look, he can strangle underage russian prostitutes and doesn’t even get arrested, see how he rises above the common man!
But oh, once the glow fades. Once trouble actually finds him, and they’re left with a big doddering pile of failure in diapers - failure is the one crime they will not forgive. Embarrassment, humiliation, betrayal, disgust, anger, hate. It will be absolutely glorious to watch.
Martyrdom won’t work. He’s going to try for it, but “see how they attack me!” doesn’t work with a broken nose.
I wouldn’t be so confident that his support will wane. People love a martyr and thats what hes protraying himself as.
All that isnt to say he shouldn’t be prosecuted, but I’d expect his support to jump in the short term.
You don’t understand. We’re not talking about just any people here. Republicans want to win. They don’t want to lose.
Martyrs gain support for ideas. Republicans don’t have ideas or policies. They like and support hierarchy. Remember, the original conservatives were monarchists and helped the British against George Washington.
It’s like a sports team. If you win, people like you more. It doesn’t matter if everyone is against you. Winners are liked more than losers. No one buys someone’s jersey because they’re a martyr.
Plenty of people rooted for the Lions and they wore brown bags over their heads.
Trump lost and people are still buying flags and hats.
I think we’ll be stuck with this cult for awhile.
Think this was because of the bait by the Biden team calling him broke?
Or does he actually have it, suddenly, and the state auditor is surprised at this couch money, in foreign denominations?
Or, he is double-dog-daring the DA to find out where the cash is and take it, and since he says it is “intended to fund his campaign”, he will then double down on the lie that it is all ELECTION INTERFERENCE!!!1!11!!1!one!
The DA will be pre-disposed to seize cash, since it’s value is not subject to appraisal.
Yeah that totally makes sense.
At the same time, I would fucking love to see the Feds seize Trump Tower.
