    It will be fun when this statement is used to deny his request for a stay on his bond in court.

      Right?

      Like you can’t have it both ways. Either you’ve got the money for the bond, the money for the settlement, for both or neither. Which is it?

        It’s like Schroedinger’s assets. If the IRS or Courts are looking, he’s got nothing. If banks are looking for collateral or he’s just trying to flash some money for his inept sycophants, he’s got billions.

          Yes, this is what all the evidence showed in court. He owes the State of New York $460 million because he should have paid them taxes for years.

          This is just reality catching up to him. He really was just lying. It’s not some brilliant scheme. It’s just lying.

              Idk, doesn’t that hurricane map from NOAA with the sharpie additions count as forgery? Not good forgery, like lvl 2 out of 100 at best, but still forgery.

              Money is his accelerator, and for the longest time people have been willing to give him more. I get to experience this close up with my parents. That have nearly zero in the bank but give Broke Donny $100 this week and eat ramen every day, because he exhibits their values and is clearly smarter. 85 million other adults feel the same… it adds up.

              And why level your deception when it’s working? In his mind this is a gamble that pays.
