The former president, who is appealing the judgment in his civil fraud case, asked an appeals court to let him avoid paying the full amount in the meantime.

It’s pretty clear he doesn’t have the cash to pay the judgement in full, and will need to sell illiquid assets at a discount in order to pay the full amount.

    When will he learn that this is not one of his crooked deals, but a “pay up or shut up” situation? I hope he’ll have to sell his real estate pennies to the dollar.

    What will happen if everything is sold and he is still in debts?

      You’ve never been a rich privileged white man I see. Trump’s only thoughts are “surely this can’t be fair, there’s gotta be something we can do to come to a better agreement” and he’ll continue to be flabbergasted by any other result because he’s never had to deal with real consequences in his life.

      Learn? Trump has a handful of actions that he repeats since it’s work his whole life, sue, whine loudly how badly he’s treated, threaten, commit large amounts of fraud like it’s going out of style. Hopefully he’ll finally have reprocussions in action (know we’re waiting on time while he is supposed to pay) but I doubt he’ll actually learn, he’ll just go back to his whining.

      I always thought if it was a fighting game sue would be his default attack button.
