Today's Tiedrich rant: fork over $364 million, you fraudulent fuck
Link: https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/fork-over-364-million-you-fraudulent
Note: Tiedrich's regular Saturday rant "This Week in Stupid" will run tomorrow because the latest happenings mentioned here take precedence over the weekly stuff.
so, the shit finally hit the fan. yesterday afternoon, Judge Engoron dropped the hammer and found Little Donny Fuckface, his two shithole sons Individual-1 Junior and The Dumb One and skeevy accountant Allen Weisselberg liable to the tune of 364 million bucks.
additionally, Trump is forbidden from heading any New York-based corporation for three years, and is forbidden from receiving loans from New York banks.
I dont know what happened here. Donny had a foolproof strategy of acting like a childish asshole during the trial sighing, waving his arms, keeping up a running commentary, and occasionally bolting from the courtroom and somehow all this failed to charm the judge. maybe it was all the times Trump called Engoron a socialist maniac that failed to win the day. or maybe its simply that Donny is a life-long conman and fraudster, and he finally got caught. settle in as we explore the shit-blizzard of financial ruin thats about to bury Trump.
first of all, the cash Trump has to come up with is a lot more than $364 mil. its actually closer to $450 million. you see, interest on the judgement accrues from when the fraud occurred not from the time of the trial. so Trump is already on the hook for interest going back years.

He wanted to be President, but never stopped to consider how running and winning would shine a light on his crooked businesses.
I know there are those who say he never really wanted to be President; that he ran just to juice up his brand.
But he's such a narcissist, it's easy to believe he wanted to tick that particular box. To get his ugly mug in the history books.
Well, he got what he wanted. Whichever monkey's paw he wished that with, I hope no one passes it to me.

I know the Repukes will never recognize that fact, but I hope the Dems realize it. We all saw it happen in real-time.
