    I won’t get my hopes up until after the seizure/liquidation order is executed, and he’s got to start selling shit, everything about and around Trump shows the rich in the United States live by different rules when it comes to the courts, and there’s always another delay or stay or appeal, that the normal citizen wouldn’t be granted or have access to, especially Trump since he and the Republican party control over half the sitting judges which decide these things

    It’s a little fun watching him squirm, but only so much, because then there’s the inevitable let down of the stay, or appeal, or case falling apart, or supreme court review, or prosecutor disqualification, or some other fucking infuriating bullshit

    Justice delayed is justice denied

      Even if it all goes as it should, and he sees at least some consequence, it’s a travesty that it took so long. Even if he was behind bars today, the damage to what passes for justice in the US is done.

      Rich people are above the law.

      I’m glad his supporters have given him all their money at this point. Nowhere for these fuckers to go to beg for money except the very obvious and illegal sources which will land his ass in even more hot water. Agents of the court are all up in his banking business, and he can’t work his way out of this one without getting caught red handed doing something…hopefully.

      The only reason he’s gotten away with it so far is that people thought he was rich. But since it’s all loans, it turns out he’s not. As a result, he’s starting to have to play by the normal people rules, and that’s going to suck for him.
