Donald Trump is close to the deadline to post bond in his fraud trial—and he’s screwing himself over even more.
After having reached out to several guarantors and 30 suretors for help posting his $464 million New York bank fraud bond, Donald Trump suddenly wants everyone to know he actually does have the cash.
In a bizarre rant on Friday morning, the man who was found to have defrauded banks and investors by overvaluing himself and the value of his properties claimed that he had accrued the wealth by way of “HARD WORK, TALENT, AND LUCK.”
Trump also admitted he has nearly half a billion dollars in cash.
The confession directly contradicts a filing from his legal team last month arguing that it would be “impossible” to secure a bond covering the full amount of the multimillion-dollar ruling.
Trump’s words will surely help out New York Attorney General Letitia James, who on Wednesday urged an appeals court to ignore Donald Trump’s latest effort to worm his way out of paying the $464 million disgorgement from his bank fraud trial.
Call me crazy but I think there's a chance he's lying.
Worse, the guy may be demented and delusional; he may actually believe his has the money in cash.
The more I see him talk the more I think he has dementia; worse than biden by far. I'm amazed he gets a free pass on it.
I know, his mental state hasn't been very good at any point in his campaigning. I remember seeing a speech of his that interrupted some TV programming shortly after he became president and it was just mindless rambling. I have ADHD and I couldn't even follow it, it was so bad.
Yeah.
Dementia combined with a complete lack of inhibition results in a presence that is much more compelling to idiots compared to someone who periodically stumbles as they attempt to compensate for their cognitive decline.
Lack of inhibition can in fact be caused by dementia, as anyone that has worked at a nursing home knows. Don't think his handlers will let Trump strip on stage, but who knows.
When you are surrounded by brainwashed sycophants, welp this is what you get.
It's a question of contrast; Biden has the bearing of a reasonable man when lucid whilst Trump is unhinged at the best of times.
To be fair, if he could pay that, there wouldn't just be a bank account labelled "money for tish james" with a balance of $500m.
"Can I pay them?" in his case world be a chomped question and he'd need accountants to tell him the answer.
"I have the money somewhere, I just can't find it at the moment! It must have been in one of the boxes that the FBI stole in Mar-A-Lago!"
If he said it out loud, it's most likely a lie.
But do you think he's lying about lying?
i'm lost. how many lies deep are we here?
Deception Inception, as it were.
quick, someone call Hall and Oates!!

You don't have to be lost, just lie about understanding and if anyone calls you out lie about lying.
Bah, I can’t keep track of all that crap.
The important question is, are we on an even numbered lie or an odd numbered lie?
Y’no
At this point, the only real news would be if his supporters grew a brain cell and actually began to notice/care about his lying.
If only... Last I saw (have a couple on my Facebook) they're comparing people who think he doesn't have the money to people who claim art they don't like is worth millions of dollars... Holy non sequitur, Batman.
It’s just, you know like… your opinion man.
