The judge’s ruling in Donald J. Trump’s civil fraud case could cost him all his available cash. It also bars the former president from running a business in the state for three years.
from what I have read, this $450 million fine must come from assets, and not campaign funds.
I don’t know about the e jean money, but for this he’s going to have to eat himself.
and just remember, the republican national committee currently has $8 million in the bank in an election year, that the new leadership promises will 100% go to elect trump. the money that’s leftover from paying his legal bills that is.
It irks me that while Trump is usually called by his last name, like all men, when people talk about women they casually use their first names like Hillary or, in this case, E Jean. It’s such a casual and mindless form of disrespect that few seem to notice.
Edit: WTF, no, Clinton’s last name wasn’t “already taken” by her husband. That’s even more disrespectful. You can easily infer who is referred to from context, using her full name or even “Ms Clinton”.
Is that broadly true? Hillary is Hillary because “Clinton” would obviously refer to Bill, since he was President. She also embraced the first name reference in her campaign materials. What about other famous women? Margaret Thatcher is Thatcher, J.K. Rowling as Rowling, Angela Merkel is Merkel. On the other side Bernie Saunders is Bernie. Perhaps calling someone by their first name is a sign of affection, not disrespect?
$354 million here…
$83.3 million to E. Jean Carroll
$5 million on the first E. Jean Carroll case…
So $442,300,000 - Yow!
He better start writing some checks before there’s a land rush for Trump Tower.
He has to wait to grift money from his cult of followers to pay for this again. $100 says they make merch to sell off this shit.

I think in Hillary’s case it could be that Clinton was already taken by her husband.
