Having a court appointed auditor also makes it difficult for him to use laundered money (or otherwise illegal sources). He has already claimed the auditor has cost him "millions", which isn't a thing if you're operating "beautifully" and above board all legal like.
Yeah, I mean talk about gravy.
Thanks NY. We all owe you one.
He should do an only fans
Is there an onlyklans? Or is that just the colloquialism for x-twitter now?
"For only $9.99 a month, I can show you the hate under this robe~."
He should do a PPV of that first episode of black mirror.
Pass, I don't want to watch 2 pigs fuck.
And feel really bad for only one of them.
Yeah! Just can't enjoy some good pig fuckin' unless you pity BOTH/ALL of them!
...is not something I ever thought I'd say 😄
He should do a PPV broadcast of him being escorted to prison in an orange jumpsuit.
It would easily generate all the money he’d no longer need, because he’ll be in prison.
I’ve learned there is nothing preventing a felon or an actively incarcerated prisoner from being elected president.
thats so politicians don't put their competitors in prison on trumped up charges. kinda like that Putin character, or Xi or Kim, etc.
Cameo?
Saudis and Russians will suddenly be very interested in golden sneakers
Why do you think Orban is visiting MaL? Trump is about to accidentally find money he ~~shoved under his mattress~~ laundered through sneakers.
[Sneakers that aren't even scheduled to ship for another four months, if ever. I'm really hoping his babysitter is watching this.]
Orban?
This fucker will give EU money to the walking brain dead?
That fucker will cheerfully accept Russian, Saudi or Chinese money to carry a couple bags of diplomatic "cash" in and a diplomatic bag of US national secrets out - remember that Trump moved boxes before and after the FBI raid, had the boxes conveniently stored next to a copier, and the FBI didn't search two rooms they were supposed to.
Normally I’d lament only having one upvote to give.
No doubt his mate Putin will find a obligarch to loan him the cash.
Putin's strapped for cash too.
The ruble is in the toilet. All of the oligarchs' foreign assets are frozen. The "two-week special military operation" in Ukraine has dragged on since 2022.
two-week special military operation
It was supposed to be three days in fact.
Did the Swiss banks finally stop laundering money for them?
Or have they been running the ~~way~~ war mostly with Chinese loans lately?
Putin has been using the Russian reserves as his personal piggy bank for decades. That worked fine when Russia was able to make money hand over fist selling oil to and gas to Europe, but now he has to use the Russian financial reserves to pay for the war
Putin probably has billions of dollars squirreled away in banks all over the world. He’s been extorting oligarchs for huge kickbacks for decades now. If they don’t pay up they find themselves shipped to Siberia or thrown out a window.
The RNC is already gearing up to pay for him. Rob the uneducated masses (remember, we're talking republicans here!) and pay the wealthy orange dude for his past actions before he was president, let's go!
The party only has $8 million cash on hand as of their Feb SEC filling. They can't pay for his corporate fraud. They can't even pay for his sexual assault. They will probably pay for some of his lawyers in the cases about stealing national secrets and trying to steal the election.
He can't use Russian money for the campaign, but he can use it for this...

This is the best summary I could come up with:
The clock is ticking for Donald Trump to pony up roughly half a billion dollars to satisfy two recent courtroom losses.
The cash crunch challenges Trump’s long-projected image of a successful businessman with deep pockets and a maverick’s ability to outmaneuver legal and financial troubles.
Now, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee for 2024 could end up heavily indebted to a bank, donor, or some other source of capital.
Trump has until Monday to post $83.3 million to meet the judgment for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll and denying her rape allegations against him.
Without any changes, Trump said he would need to produce $91.63 million, which includes the district court’s common practice of requiring a bond of 110% of the judgment.
March 25, meanwhile, is also the first day of jury selection in Trump’s first criminal trial, related to the cover up of hush money payments to Stormy Daniels.
The original article contains 410 words, the summary contains 143 words. Saved 65%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
assuming half of the population is braindead means 165,5 million ppl need to give less than 50bucks. bam. consider it done. trump will get the money.
Assuming that Trump's voter base keeps more than $50 cash in their trailer is a rather bold assumption to make.
Or he faces jail time.. right? Right guys? Heh.. 😔
No. They start taking his assets
This is a civil case, jail ixnf an option. But they can take his buildings by force
Edit: *isn't
Yeah, it's good that debtors prison isn't a thing.
Which wouldn't work because they want us to keep digging ourselves into a deeper hole and line their pockets with interest without ever actually bringing the balances down. Can't really do that in prison where you're not generating any income for yourself.

You say that but prisons can and do force prisoners to work jobs and then use the income from that job to pay for the prisoner's own sentence.
Most people who leave prison leave with a hefty bill for room and board, even after performing legal slave labor.
I didn't know that part, I figured with privatization it was the prisons making money just from having more people locked up, and any work they got was essentially slave labor for the benefit of the prison and its partners for pennies on the dollar.
Only 8% of prisoners in the US are in for profit prisons.
Relatively speaking, very few prisons in the US are private/for profit, but the majority of US prisons make use of prison slave labor and bill prisoners for their sentence.
I'm curious what happens if they take his buildings that are used as collateral for other buildings/loans. might cost him much more?
