Bullshit. He's not 'out of money'...he's 'out of the money he's willing to part with'. Big difference.
They need to find his secret stashes of cash and make sure it goes to the people he owes.

Check his pillows
There's always money in the pillow stand.
It's a Lumpy pillow Michael, how much could it possibly cost? $79.98?
His pillows are shit, they're fucking terrible.
Probably due to being filled with money
For crack ?
He's not 'out of money'…he's 'out of the money he's willing to part with'.
...or out of the money that hasn't been offshored.
He's lying. Rich people don't ever go broke.
This implies he was ever actually rich in the first place. For people like this it was a con from the start, built of lies and debt.
I dunno, I think he sold a heck of a lot of lumpy jesus pillows. If he didn't decide to start lying about the election he probably would have lived a very comfortable life.
Had Trump never gotten the stupid idea to run—which was what put him under the microscope—in the first place, everyone, from the top down, would have been fine and could have kept their respective grifts going well into the lich-esque ages they’d have inevitably reached because these scumbags live for-fucking-ever.
Part of me is glad they’re being brought into the light like the cockroaches they are so they can [potentially] face justice, but another part of me thinks that whatever victory the American citizens gain in this will be a pyrrhic one (metaphorically), and we’d have been better off had we never heard of any of them from the outset.
This is what's so hilarious to me, he's his own worst enemy. It's like with covid, if he had sat back and sold overpriced masks to the rubes while taking advice from those smarter than him he would have fucking SAILED into re-election. Same with the women he defamed (her name is eluding me at the moment). Almost immediately after the trial ended he did it again and she sued again. He just can't shut the fuck up and keep his enormously inflated ego out of the mix.
He’s basically Yogurt from Spaceballs in his craven self-promotion, so it’s utterly wild to me that he didn’t go for such an obvious ~grift~ merchandising opportunity; but I guess if any such opportunity could indirectly help anyone on his shit list—which comprises 99% of the American people—he’d rather miss out.
he probably would have lived a very comfortable life.
Not if he was using one of his pillows
A recovering addict hopefully knows better than to go lie on his own supply.
There is a difference between selling pillows and selling pillows profitably.
Some people (morons) suck at business and can't turn a profit with any amount of revenue.
That and his seeming drug addiction
Yeah. There’s a big difference between “you can’t prove I have any money” and “I’m living in my car”.
He's not that rich. He was worth like $40 million at his height, he's being sued by dominion for $1.2 billion, and I think there's a second similiar lawsuit in the works. He's fucked.
Lol imagine getting sued for 1.2 billion... like fuck, my great great great grandchildren still wouldn't have that paid off

Rich people don’t ever go broke.
Their bones can.
My money's on an incoming fundraiser or emergency batch of pillows for extra money to support "the cause."

Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps. Easy.
To be fair, he did manage to build himself up from rock bottom.
True that. He is an attention whore and a cultist. He also has more business savvy than most.

Why do the rich have a very different definition of "out of money"? To us pesents, out of money means being homeless on the streets and going off of food stamps. A fate I wish he ended up in, and what he should end up in.
This seems like capitalism at work.
I won’t believe it until the Audi he’s driving in the photo is replaced with a Ford Tempo that he’s borrowing from his roommate at the flophouse he has to live in, scraping by by selling junk through an MLM scheme because that’s what’s most apropos for him, the boot-licking Paul Bearer-ass-looking motherfucker

A year from now there will be an article about how he and Giuliani sucking each other off in a Dennys parking lot after both have lost everything.
Them being "out of money" is really "nah I feel like just not paying". They have different rules for them. They still have millions in the bank. Must be hard with only that much.
Bingo. They're broke minus material holdings in gross excess of the general public and all the assets they've hidden.
~~ in a Dennys parking lot ~~
in a georgia cell block
"Oh no! I'm out of money! Guess you'll have to stop suing me" *shrug*
Good.
The definition of "cancel culture" has been spread so thin by conservatives that this guy thinks that throwing away all his money into a volcano of easily proven lies is "getting cancelled"
I'm out of money says the guy wearing a $5000 suit and a gold ring while driving an Audi.
Seems convenient.
It's obvious this guy fried his brian on drugs and religion.
This is the life.
This is the Life of Brian.
In spanish thats pronounced "Adios motherfucker"
Tickle my pickle and I'll give ya a nickel... just ask uncle Donny for some paper
Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving guy.
Oh wait, Trump exists.
Sounds like he's going to owe more legal bills.
this is fantastic news!
Consequence culture claims another victim. Go woke or go broke!
