Meanwhile, Eric The Half A Brain is whining that Florida's $18M appraisal of Tub-o-Lardo (thank you Berkeley Breathed) should be "well over $1B", which is kinda what got them into this trouble to start with.
I don't know if the Saudi $2B to Junior was for "services rendered" (wink wink) or a "future investment". Wondering if they're kind of rethinking that.
Memes are already circulating about Trump Tower being converted to a Spirit Halloween store.
The Trumpists seem to have wanted to hark back to the old days, the days of the kings, chosen by $deity and tested in battle. Democracy is for losers etc, etc, etc.
They are lucky that in a democracy, losers are treated with consideration and that serious attempts at treating everyone fairly are the norm. I just finished Rathbone’s “Kings of Albion,” a romp through the war of the roses, and the good old days were not that great if a leader suffered a setback…
This decision, which will probably be mainly upheld, will finally pull back the curtain on a lot of Trump's claims of wealth and show most of his properties are leveraged to the hilt. In other words he has little cash and few assets that could be sold to pay huge fines. I don't think Putin or the Saudis will bail him out this time.you, or even be allowed to cover for him. The crime was by the entire Trump organization and they must be held responsible for their crimes, not bought off by someone else.
I am being so sorry to hear of your financial setbacks. As a gesture of goodwill and support I am sending you a special selection of finest Russian teas. Tea is very good for the mind and can bring about calming feelings. Dont worry, Russian tea is supposed to glow in the dark.
...and the good thing about New York is that Trumplandia can only *propose* names for the Receiver. Now, what receiver in it's right corporate mind will take an unsecured commission from Trumplandia? Unless it's Deutsche Bank, thinking it can get one more go-round on the Trump show, and hope to break even. But there's going to be a receiver, and it will have to meet the approval of the State of New York, where Trump has so many friends and allies.
I first read the sub-heading as “bad days getting bladder.” Freudian ?
Yeah, at a glance I thought it had something to do with a baby's bladder. It does, but that's not what the sub-hed says.

lol. Right now I am within about 250 feet from a former Toys R Us that is now a Spirit Halloween Store. Thanks, hedge funds!
I'm sure Palm Beach County tax department will be happy to discuss a valuation well over $1B.
With back taxes and penalties, they might top the $250MM that NYS is going to beat out of them.
Lol for "Eric The Half A Brain"

This is so fucking delicious. I am not sure how much more "winning" I can take!
I for one am willing to do the experiment, as long as I can have a spotter to make sure I don't explode or anything.
Nobody is holding his umbrella anymore. He looks absolutely pathetic. (doing my happy dance)
Do you think he's figured out how to close one yet?
It ends up looking like a refolded map.
From what the judges have said about them, Trump's lawyers would do better to worry about themselves and their future careers.
And also about whether they will get paid because it doesn't look very likely they will be at the moment.
This trial is gonna make me love Mondays!
Ta, Evan.
I bet the ketchup is flying in Mar a Lago tonight!
♫ Many are the hearts that are weary tonight,
Wishing for the ketchup war gone.
Many the Repubs that are eager tonight
To see it limping on.
Ketchup tonight,
Ketchup tonight,
Flying at the old Trump ground.
Ketchup tonight,
Ketchup tonight,
Flying at the old Trump ground.♫
Trump: An American Monster
NICE TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Current lenders to Trump, will likely be well protected, probably by bankruptcy/receivership clauses in the lending agreement. Although we hope not, since the President of the bank is Greg Garrabrants (https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/axos-bank-trump-tower-donald-trump-1320670/)
Perhaps some randomly wandering Big Guy with Tears in His Eyes could be persuaded to accept the assignment.
Oh, wait, those are all imaginary non-beings.
Then, yeah, probably not qualified.
I read this post twice because this made me so happy.
And to top it all off, he's started a fight with Taylor Swift. Go get him Swifties (with voter registrations and votes, of course)
Note to Self: Don't pick a fight with Taylor Swift.
