Former President Donald Trump will likely run out of legal defense funds this summer, Bloomberg reported.
In 2023, Trump spent $51.2 million on legal costs and has a further $23.5 million available for lawyers’ fees — but that source of money will likely dry up around July, the report said.
The ex-president may now be forced to turn to a few undesirable options to cover his costs.
He lost his ability to do business in one state, which likely just means he’ll do it by proxy
And I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if he weasels his way out of paying somehow
He has a deadline of 30 days to pay, and in order to appeal he first has to put 110% of the amount owing in escrow.
I’ll believe he’ll pay when he pays. I see no reason to start thinking he’s going to do what he’s supposed to, required to, do when that’s never been what he’s done. I honestly doubt he’ll give up that money until it’s forcibly pulled from his accounts.
Maybe this time will be different and the rules will actually apply to him. Maybe this time Lucy won’t pull that football back. Until that actually happens, forgive me if I’m sceptical that things are going to be different this time around.
He won’t. Stop spreading misinformation.
What misinformation am I spreading? That I think something is or isn’t going to happen?
I assure you that it is very accurate that I’m prepared to see him find some way to weasel out of this, and I’m not sure how you could possibly know whether or not I think the things I say I think.
Again: I’ll believe it when it happens. Not before then. I’m done believing the right thing will happen when it comes to him since it so rarely has.
