Donald Trump was supposed to have to post a $464 million bond by Monday or else the state of New York could begin collecting on the massive civil fraud judgment leveled against him earlier this year. An appeals court bailed him out, blocking collection of the judgment and giving the former president 10 days to post a drastically reduced $175 million bond.
The order is a huge win for Trump, whose assets were going to be subject to seizure if he couldn’t post nearly half-a-billion dollars by Monday. His lawyers said last week he wasn’t going to be able to come up with the money after 30 underwriters rejected him. The New York Times has reported that Trump is expected to be able to scrounge the new, reduced $175 million bond
Well I’m no longer going to be leaving the US, though that was my first plan. Instead I’d gladly stay and watch it burn to the ground around me when trump gets re-elected (and note, it’s not even in doubt anymore - he WILL get re-elected).

Of course it’s still in doubt.
There’s a hundred percent chance I will eventually die and a high chance if I don’t pay my taxes I will pay fines or go to jail.
There’s maybe a 40% chance Trump will get in again even if you keep trying to discourage people to vote against him.
According to polls published in USA TODAY and on NBC Nightly News, there’s a 75% chance Trump actually will be re-elected. People hate him, but see him as the only one who can pull us out of rising inflation.
Do you believe those polls?
