Carroll found an IRL infinite money glitch
Hard to get blood from a turnip.
Not really? Trump uses banks, and banks will freeze assets to a court order and turn them over.
That only applies to people who aren't rich. Trump is going to use the Alex Jones playbook of bankruptcy, shell companies, and "but I can't survive on anything less than 80k a month"
No? Alex Jones's assets were not public, so they were easier to hide. Trump has many public assets, and the Trump Org is a very public (although privately held) company.
There's already a judge in control of the Trump Org, so they can't move any money without approval. The State of NY is literally holding him by the balls, whether he pays up or not.
Banks do not help people whose assets are already frozen. It would be obvious and they would get a massive fine, and the recipient bank would send the money back (if they're in the US). Plus whichever bank employee made the transfer would be fired.
He has already posted the bond for the first order. He has to post the second to appeal. Which he will. He’s not getting out of this. Each bond is above the initial is in the article.
In this case I don't think so. Trump has low liquidity but many assets. Even if he dies she can get paid from his estate.
Or blood from a cheeto.
Naw, he's working on hooking up an IV drip from the RNC doners as we speak.
He doesn't have any money to pay her
Every appeal ends up putting actual money in escrow. He doesn't have enough money to actually appeal this last decision + the new York fraud decision.
Doesn't matter. Still sue.
