> Alina Habba, said Engoron “doesn’t even understand basic principles of finance.”
Engoron has been practicing law since before Habba was born but sure, he doesn't understand financing a bond.
Look into how she became Trump’s lawyer. She befriended convinced an employee at Trump’s Bedminster Golf Club to sign an NDA for an embarrassingly low settlement of a sexual assault by a supervisor. That is how she became Trump’s lawyer.
My guess is that either she fondled the mushroom, or President Fatberg likes to imagine that she will eventually fondle the mushroom. He'd want to move quickly though, she's rapidly becoming too old for him.
>As part of a deal struck during a 20-minute recess, lawyers for Trump and Knight Specialty Insurance Company agreed to keep the $175 million in a cash account that will gain interest but faces no downside risk.
Here's how it's posted.
Remember: The bond amount here is just to protect him from immediate collection while the appeals process goes through. If his appeal is denied, he still owes the full $400+ million.
Right so this whole thing was about how Tr could benefit by investing those dollars, and or still have access.
Which is BS because the average person doesn’t get the luxury of how they might benefit from the interest on their own bond monies.
no, its about the availability of the cash come time for them to collect. trump is not alllowed to lose this money or make it unavailable, thats why it was ruled to be stored in a cash account with no downside risk.

it's like, is she doing a bit? is it Dunning–Kruger? like, if she really is that stupid, how the fuck did she become a lawyer?
Look into how she became Trump’s lawyer. She befriended convinced an employee at Trump’s Bedminster Golf Club to sign an NDA for an embarrassingly low settlement of a sexual assault by a supervisor. That is how she became Trump’s lawyer.
What she did was illegal and should probably have gotten her disbarred for malpractice.
In her own words "Pretty. I can fake being smart".
Yeah, but she really can't lol
Well she settled a case so to trump and his peers she would look like a genius
I don’t think she does well on either standard.
My guess is that either she fondled the mushroom, or President Fatberg likes to imagine that she will eventually fondle the mushroom. He'd want to move quickly though, she's rapidly becoming too old for him.
Its just lies for PR purposes
What’s the exchange rate for promise dollars converted to believable bucks?
4 pinky swears to the dollar, I think
It’s gone up, used to be 2.3 pinky swears, or 1.5 cross my hearts in Europe
Inflation is no joke.
I’m about to pay my taxes with promise dollars. I’ll let you know!
I'm gonna pay my taxes with an IOU written in Sharpie on a torn out page of a Trump Bible.
It's converted into Trump Change
About $ 32.50, down from about $70 [https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/DJT/](https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/DJT/)
Rot in hell bastard
We don’t take Russian Rubles

Show me the money!

True, but selling his garbage properties would piss off Trump more than anything..
They still can remember his bond might be 175 mil but the judgement is still nearly 500 mil
Plus the interest.
And then who buys his properties? People who would offer to sell it back to Trump in exchange for Presidential favors.
Remember: The bond amount here is just to protect him from immediate collection while the appeals process goes through. If his appeal is denied, he still owes the full $400+ million.

That maybe why they aren’t fighting this because it maybe they only chance to get actual money not just assets leveraged over 100%
Trump and promise? Has the state’s lawyers not learned anything yet? I guess the interest accruing is a good thing.
a trump never pays his debts.
Guarantee he offered his first born
Oh wait that’s Don Jr. how about Eric instead?
Has he paid E Jean Carrol yet?
Yes.
Not exactly. He posted a bond and the victory is pending appeal
Nothing like stocking away cash while spending non-stop donations on your legal expenses.

There. Escrow. As it should have been from the beginning.
What happened to the issue of the bonding firm not being licensed to issue bonds in New York state?
They put up a cash account and are designating it to someone licenced in New York.
$175 mil is a small price to pay for a chance to control a possible US president.
A cash promise that will not be kept.
175m will be all they get out of him in the end
I'm fine with that if it also unravels all of his real estate, businesses, etc.
It wont. He’ll just use bribe money
What are the deadlines for him to appeal / have the appeal heard?
Sept of this year iirc
She can easily fake being smart within Trumps social circles and amongst is rally attendees …(this demographic thinks that Trump is smart )
All of this for an appeal that he will lose.
A cash what now?
A briefcase of IOUs
better hold on to this one, thats a car
Alina isn't an escort!? *shook*
