I imagine he’s been gaming the courts his entire adult life. Probably watched his fathwr do it too. And he may have packed federal courts with loyal judges while preznit knowing he’d eventually appear before one of his own handpicked ones. And here we are.
It’s amazing to me that in our legal system, it’s okay for him to appear before this judge, who’s so clearly helping him.
In that case, prosecutors should agree to showing the jurors (and the judge, who I’m guessing doesn’t have the necessary security clearances!) properly redacted versions of the documents. And if the defense attorneys violate the law in showing the jurors un-redacted versions of the documents, the records of the court proceedings will make fine evidence to enter at their own criminal trials (to follow Trump’s.) [Can the prosecutors have FBI agents in the courtroom witnessing the proceedings, ready to arrest the defense attorneys if they break the law?]
The occasional “the” and “a” are likely to be the only things not blacked out on those redacted documents, along of course with the CLASSIFIED markings on the documents.
The New York attorney general’s office has filed judgments in Westchester County, where former President Trump’s golf resort and private estate known as Seven Springs is located — a first step toward seizing the asset.
How much you want to bet he tries to claim he needs more time to move all his stuff out of his residence in Trump Tower and so she can’t have it until that’s done?
I know an organization that’s pretty good at moving large volumes of stuff that could help. Call FBI Moving (and Potential Evidence Searching.)
By the time he can actually cash out, I’d expect that value to have plummeted, considering how it’s being artificially pumped right now. I’m guessing he ends up with only a fraction of that putative $3.5 billion.
Well there’s this, but I’d expect it to plummet anyway:
It is possible that the board of directors could vote to allow Trump to sell shares earlier than that. And that board could be stocked with people close to Trump, including his son Donald Trump Jr., former wrestling company executive Linda McMahon and Trump’s former trade representative Robert Lighthizer, according to a list of planned nominees
I imagine it would also be hard for him to sell off a big chunk of it at once without sending the stock price plummeting since he owns over half the shares and it’s already been described as a “meme stock” (i.e., the stock price has little if any relation to the company’s actual value).
I wonder if anyone will be reckless enough to accept those shares as collateral for a bond.
