If he starts selling more property, then we will know he is trouble financially.

The first to call a note will start a stampede which will likely result in Trump's bankruptcy. If Trump goes into bankruptcy, the creditors will be lucky to get pennies on the dollar.

I expect the creditors to be hoping for on-going payments. They will likely call notes only when they give up all hope.

Now, most wealthy people actually control enough wealth and manage their incomes to pay their credit card bills. trump has lived his life by continuously taking out more loans to pay off the loans he currently holds. And he has used a lot of lies and distortions to make that happen.

Once a bank says "no mas" it makes it harder for him to continue the process with others. Much like in the 90's, when most US banks stopped financing his scams he turned to DeutcheBank, with strong Russian backing, to continue the grift. Sooner or later, someone who is over-leveraged will lose support.

trump's assets are largely not liquid, many are not even real. When the piper comes calling to pay for the dance, he's in trouble. I suspect that now that trump is out of public life and not active in government his Russian backers will no longer help him. They've been shifting back to the more generic social media divisions and subversions.
