Wow, someone actually finally managed to force Trump to pay a bill.

    Someone paid it. Not entirely convinced it was directly from Trump.

    Isn’t he under financial monitoring due to the NY case? Am I mistaken?

      An insurance company named Chubb put up the bond money and they are not under financial monitoring.

          Putin is worth $200 billion. Easily enough to cover all of Donnie’s expenses. Vlad wants Donnie in the White House, and will settle for complete chaos in the West. If the GOP collapses, there will plenty of Lorena Booboos running around at the state level. Think of what the real Lorena has done, then multiple by 100.

            I mean, he’s under serious financial scrutiny right now. Its not clear to me that this would even be possible.

      That doesn’t necessarily make it public. In the NY case I remember reading that if someone paid the $354m bond even that wouldn’t necessarily be transparent as to who paid it.

        Sure but there is a court appointed monitor. Like, some one knows who is empowered to raise a flag if its clearly shady?

        Right?

        right?

      Not him personally, but his companies are.

        My understanding is that the distinctions are a bit grey insofar as how they are managed, but sure.

        Its not clear to me he has any real kind of money laying around at this point. Maybe he does.
