From Atlantic Magazine written by a former federal judge and a Harvard constitutional scholar.

I'm leaving out the legal arguments which I assume are formidable. I'm drawn to this because of the way the writers do not move the idea of a self-evident oath-breaking insurrectionist to an abstraction. They, for me, lift the clutter of details and definitions (they do address those, too) and obfuscations that seem to blind people to the reality of what the fuck is going on.

This and the instances that @WhatTheBuck has mentioned where some frank language about the obvious are popping up, give me some hope that the paradigm shift from old politics to the current and huge story of the threat to the republic will be more widely seen and adopted.

Anyways, I got something out of this.

The system simply isn't designed to handle malfeasance at his level.

Regarding his trial: Poor Donald. Wop-wawp.

Regarding everything outside the trial: Donald ascendant! The crooked Biden-loving, Never-Trumper, slutty negress leads the witch hunt! Money pours in. Undecided dumbasses think, "maybe there is something to this being a witch hunt. We're so polarized now. Both parties are so bad. At least Trump had a great economy and worldwide respect."

This.  All was lost the moment that Trump was let into the GQP (there's definitely an argument that all was lost even before, and Trump was the culmination of the enshittening).  But it was definitely all lost the day he was welcomed into a party made up of the weakest, most spineless, unprincipled hateful cowards the world has ever seen.

Once that happened, no good outcome was possible.  All paths forward are very, very, very bad.  It's just a question of how bad, and even that's hard to discern.  It's like asking whether you'd prefer to experience the firebombing of Tokyo or the nuking of Hiroshima.  Either one of those.....is fucking AWFUL.  But that's where we are with the disease of Trumpism.  The disease will kill us.  Or the cure will kill us.  Either way, we're a dead country walking.

Back then someone would’ve challenged him to a duel when he lied, and the orange shit-stain, being a coward, would’ve refused.  Under the customs and culture of the time that would’ve been the end of his career.

if either outcome is the same... sooner rather than later is best. just saying. Delaying the inevitable outcome seems like folly.

No, I don’t think that’s correct. I’m pretty sure that would be nourishing to the tree. I say we should do it.

Isn't his blood just a mixture of ketchup and McDonalds special sauce?  Not sure how that helps a tree.

Yeah I want to read that motion. Wahhh, Wahhh, we can't get a bond, so please give us an exception to the rules so we don't have to. 

That said, that the big billionaire can't get a bond and is having to tell it publicly is beautiful.

If he can't actually secure the bond, what's next?  Assets seizure?

Yes.  Seizure.

 

 

Yes.  Seizure.

Sounds like the time is right for a run for President of the United States. At age 78.

Certainly a possibility. However, many or most plaintiffs are motivated to wait out an appeal before attempting to execute on a judgment if there is any possibility of reversal or alteration of the judgment. They have to weigh that against the possibility of the defendant wasting or hiding assets, for which there are other remedies. 

I suspect trump may ask the appeals court to stay the non-monetary portions of the judgment pending appeal because that is the most immediate threat. That would be a legally plausible thing to do.

more detail. 

So only asking for a stay of the monetary portion. Good luck with that. 

About the only reason for the appeals court to do that is that the judgment is so obviously infirm that it will clearly be reversed in whole or in part. Seems unlikely but may offer a preview.

Would they have to argue that he’s too poor to meet the financial penalty?

GOP can post bonds, hell they will probably even just pay the fines. All in the name of keeping the messiah on track to ascendance.

It’s a small price to pay really.

This is a principle of general application. Unless my client direly needed a portion of the judgment amount, say less than half, and the execution was going to be easy, I would advise holding their water until the appeal is concluded. But commence diligence on asset "tracing." 

The NY AG doesn't need the money. They'd mostly be doing it to fuck with Trump. And that is a recipe for being on the wrong end of a wrongful execution suit, if the judgment is reversed.

How so?  Trying to collect on a court-ordered bond is "fucking with" the defendant?  What's the point of the bond?

I may not be understanding you.

I never thought I'd be the type of person who rooted for a man to be publicly ruined and/or murdered.

But apparently I am.

Seize his shit and send him to federal-pound-me-in-the-ass-prison so he can get shanked to death by a black inmate who is the grandson of someone he once denied an apartment lease to in his early NYC slumlord days.

It's the only way to be sure.

Now I'm confused. I thought there was an announcement last week that some bank was putting up the bond for him. Did that fall through?
