Judge fines Trump more than $300 million, bars from running businesses in New York for three years

Oh and important fact:

The judge stipulated that the fines CANNOT BE PAID VIA CAMPAIGN FUNDS.

Fat Ass can't run to his useful idiots. It has to be paid via assets and company funds.

#FIRE SALE FRIDAY!

Three years? Are you shitting me?

Why is it that people who commit fraud for less than $10,000 get jail for decades but commit fraud for millions and you only lose your ability to do business in a single state for 3 years?

so that's nearly a HALF BILLION DOLLARS in fines owed to multiple entities by the (alleged) billionaire who is also the leading candidate to one political party.

now would be a real good time for that party to remove themselves from trump. because if they stay hitched to that wagon, they ain't winning shit. but the hilarious thing is that if they get behind haley right now they'll have an even shot at winning but she's so unappealing to the base they'll never do it.

it's great. 🤣😆🤣😆

What's even funnier is initially the investigators were only looking to get $250M. During the case after a monitor was appointed, the Trump Org. started shuffling money around and they went after more money due to those actions.

trump's entire 2016 presidential campaign cost $340 million.

trump's 2020 campaign more then doubled that amount to spend $774 million(which, with his loss conveniently amounted to nothing).

This judgment, coupled with prejudgment interest, amounts to over $450 million.

And being barred from conducting business in New York is one heck of a cherry on top, although like many of you, I would have liked to see a lifetime ban.

His sons are also not allowed to have any role in Trump organizations in New York for 2 years and owe four million each.

There's trumps $83 million ruling for his rape and defamation of carroll as well.

Congrats, Letitia James and judge engoron.

Can't wait for the rest of these trials to get going.

But if you grow weed you to prison for life. How are people ok with this?

The judge also ordered that they pay substantial interest, pushing the penalty for the former president to $450 million, according to the attorney general, Letitia James.

That's gonna put a dent in the ol' reelection funds.

Guy is gonna be 81 by the time the 3 year ban lifts, it's close enough to a lifetime ban.

So is this another OJ Simpson-type situation? Don't go to jail for what you did, just pay a fine for what you did? So no criminal consequences, but some civil ones for the same offense? I mean fraud must be a criminal offense in the US too, right?

So much winning!! /s

I like that last part where he's barred from running businesses in NY.

Will he actually have to pay this in any realistic time frame?

Or does he get to lodge a Supreme Court appeal that takes another 5 years to get a decision?

Wow. He lucked out big time by not having the businesses claimed and broken up. That sucks.

The judgement is for 355M. How do you round off 55M?

Somewhat like the Al Capone case, in that Capone was ultimately handled for tax evasion. Financial clamps can be the most successful.

A fraud on me.

HAHAHAHAHA

Isn't he worth billions? I know that's what he likes to tell people. So this should be no problem, right? Just a small fee.
