"An appeals court has DENIED Donald Trump's request to pause $10,000 a day in fines while he appeals a judge's civil contempt order. @NewYorkStateAG confirms Trump's getting billed on weekends, too. By tomorrow, he'll owe $100,000 and counting," said New York Daily News reporter Molly Crane-Newman.

1. Lock him the fuck up

And get thee to the greatest page

[Bev54]

25. Lock him up and start forfeiture on property with a higher value

because it will soon be much higher.

[AllaN01Bear]

36. i was just thinkin that . go after hard assets .

[Rhiannon12866]

30. Isn't this what generally happens?? Why is he still stumbling around free??

[malaise]

[Hulk]

38. What would they do to you or me????

You're damn right. We'd be in jail, and there would be a lien on our property to cover the expenses....mounting daily.

Enough of this coddling this mafia scum bag.

[malaise]

39. Enough of this coddling this mafia scum bag.

THIS!

[Celerity]

54. He's untouchable. He'll never face any real consequences, barring some rando doing something illegal

which would likely trigger off a 'Revenge For The God Emperor' shooting war, so that would not a good thing AT ALL.

He literally committed hundreds of millions of USD in fraud via illegal valuation manipulations over the years, and as soon as the 'right' person came into the DA's office, poof goes the whole thing.

A nation ends in terms of long term viability when one side is willing to bin the constructs, constraints, and boundaries that the nation itself operated under, all in a quest for utter power, OR it also ends when the other side, who wants to maintain the nation and norms, refuses, at some point, to do what needs to be done in order to preserve the union.

Lincoln, from the latter group, knew when to colour outside the lines when faced with the snarling, nation-ending dangers that spewed forth the from the former group. There are no Lincolns out there that I see, and perhaps even he would be stopped now by systemic inertia.

[malaise]

55. He will pay and he will soon be a pariah

Take that to the bank.
And on’t rule out one of his own cultists turning on him literally.

[Celerity]

57. we are into the 8th year now of Trump on the global political stage and so far nothing has stuck

in terms truly serious legal jeopardy

you are far more optimistic than I am sis

[msfiddlestix]

66. Sorry to break this to ya, malaise.. the only thing we'll be able to take to the bank is

him getting another "get out of jail free" card, no leans on his accounts, freedom to continue on with fraud, theft, deception and lunacy. among a list of other outrageous misbehavior and criminal activity which would land any one else in the slammer.

justice will not be served in any meaningful way, and it's time we all understand that.

love your optimism...

[dalton99a]

53. +1

[ck4829]

2. Or maybe he *can't*... smartest businessman ever, my foot.

[Bev54]

26. He really just thinks he is above the law and nothing is going to happen to him

[blueinredohio]

35. Nothing is going to happen to him and he knows it.

[BigmanPigman]

3. Doesn't he have tons of $$$ that he continues

to grift off of his loyal cult? We know he would never, ever pay out of his own pocket.

[Historic NY]

4. NY should just seize one of his over rated golf courses that he undervalues for taxes.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

8. +1. Slap a lien on Trump Tower. Maybe then we could

Get true measurements of his gaudy apt for the IRS. Or Westminster to see if they ever really go there since they say they don't.

[Rebl2]

34. Absolutely!

[royable]

5. I keep saying, make it $10 million a day.

But no one listens....

[Laura PourMeADrink]

9. I hear ya !!!!!!! Great idea

[Evergreen Emerald]

6. Well so far in his life, he HAS been above the law.

Very few, if any consequences for his illegal actions.

[Irish_Dem]

7. Correct. Why would he pay the fine when there will be no consequences?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

10. Ding ding ding

[rurallib]

23. wish I could rec this post

[malaise]

33. THIS! n/t

[AleksS]

11. How far until he can get locked up?

He’s never faced consequences before. It would be nice if this was finally the time.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

14. ??? But you made me think my husband and I were just

Saying it will be something like jaywalking or pulling a label off a pillow that he'll get nailed for

[Liberal In Texas]

12. What would happen if you or I refused to pay a court fine?

In Texas:

If you had enough money to pay the fines but simply refused to pay, the judge can order you to serve a jail sentence for credit of at least $50 per day.

At that rate, TFG would be in jail for 2000 days. I'd be happy with that.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

16. Omg .. that would be great!!! At a minimum cuff and perp walk him! nt

[MyOwnPeace]

41. And as the WORLD watches the 'perp walk'........

FAUX SPEWS will be covering EVEN MORE breaking news about Hunter Biden's laptop - and the latest from Benghazi..........

[davsand]

13. Swear out a warrant.

He may not choose to pay the fines, but they do have the power to lock his ass up. I'm assuming that would work like any other fugitive situation--meaning he could be arrested in another place (Mir-a-lax-o comes to mind) then be transported to face the originating judge in person. I'm no lawyer, but maybe one of the DU member attorneys could give their educated opinion here...

WHY is that pendejo not in jail already?


Laura

[TheRealNorth]

18. DeathSatan probably wouldn't extradite him

Although maybe NY can hire a bounty hunter (I presume FL does allow bounty hunters).

But liens against his property, and be prepared to grab him if he flies into Kennedy.

[lame54]

22. Then he couldn't go on tour

[SoonerPride]

15. Nothing new here

He never will pay either.

And nothing will happen to him.

[SoCalDavidS]

20. As Usual, You Get It

No Fucking Consequences.

Above The Law ALWAYS.

[Celerity]

49. +1

He is untouchable

[hlthe2b]

17. Send the f'ing Federal Marshalls. NOW

[lpbk2713]

19. No regard for the law.

But then, that's nothing new.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

21. Except for the laws that help him like abilities to delay and to try and dismiss

[FakeNoose]

24. Foreclose on some of his buildings, take possession of Mar-A-Lago

Maybe THEN he'll listen. Welcome to the real world, Mr. Chump.

[diehardblue]

27. Garnishment!

[Stuart G]

28. K and R...I think Trump will pay, when the time is right..Then, ask for donations to pay. He wont...

pay a cent......Donations will pay for it.

[AZLD4Candidate]

29. Does the justice system have the spine to sic the marshalls on him or police to put him in jail for

contempt?

[MyOwnPeace]

44. Of course I'd LOVE it, but.......

this 'issue' is a CIVIL case in the state of New York. Nothing 'Federal' involved with it.
Yes, a BLACK FLEET OF FBI agents surrounding Merde-a-Lardo would be 'BREAKING NEWS!' for everybody but 'Faux' - but it ain't gonna' happen........yet (well, at least not related to this case).

[Laura PourMeADrink]

52. I think we are all lumping civil and criminal and everything in between

As one HUGE and growing pile of shit. Because there is SO much, and doubt he will actually be held accountable, it doesn't even matter?

[onecaliberal]

31. Start seizing his property.

throw him in jai.

[llmart]

37. I get PTSD whenever I see that anus mouth.

Next time give us fair warning such as, "WARNING: Do not click on this thread if you get triggered by tfg's anus mouth."

I'm only half kidding. He is so ugly and that picture makes me want to hurl.

[smirkymonkey]

58. Arghhh! So do I! I hate him so much that just the sight of his hideous face with that cat anus

mouth makes me want to vomit. I honestly have a severe negative physical reaction to the sight of him. I'm feeling pretty stabby right now.

[llmart]

69. I hate him about as much as you do.

I wish he'd just take a dirt nap already. Don't you ever wonder what kind of funeral he'd get as an ex-President? I just hope they don't taint our Capitol with his toxic body laying there. Seriously, having said that, here's a guy who fomented an insurrection at our Capitol and he could very well be given that honor.

Man, I should have never gone there. I wonder if his kids would be smart enough to know it'd be a disaster if they did that because, like his inauguration, no one would show.

[smirkymonkey]

70. My goal in life is to live long enough to see him die. I know that is sick, but its true.

The odds of that happening are pretty good considering our ages, but still , you never really know. Anything can happen with him.

[Kablooie]

40. Of course. Who thought he would?

He will never pay and the justice department will do nothing about it except send him bills for the next 50 years.

Anyone else would have income garnered but they would never dare to do it to Trump.

I mean, the president is above the law. We all know that.

[Gore1FL]

42. He has a lot of possessions in the state that can't really be moved.

If those have to be taken in compensation, so be it.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

48. I imagine. And state thinking how how much they could get for a golden toilet

[tiredtoo]

43. All the cultists should prepare for another fund raiser. EOM

[Samrob]

45. He is still above the law and setting the example for others to disrespect law and order. nt

[Solly Mack]

46. Color me not surprised.

[BlueIdaho]

47. Isn't that the approximate value of Mar a GoGo

Now that he’s stinking the place up with his endless farting around? Take it.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

50. I figured if the Bidens could remove his stench from the White House

Then it is a legitimate possibility

I like Mar a gogo

[BlueIdaho]

51. We can hope

[Emile]

56. Okay DOJ it's time to arrest him!

[Tickle]

59. It is a state crime

and I don’t think they can go into another state and arrest him and/or take his property. They would have to work with Florida to extradite him and that’s not going to happen

[Emile]

61. If the state of Florida will not arrest a man

that is wanted in a different state, then the DOJ can.

[Tickle]

62. then you know better than me

so why doesn't the DOJ arrest him?

I stand by what I wrote

[Emile]

63. Why doesn't the DOJ enforce house subpoenas too?

I stand by what I wrote too!

[Tickle]

64. because it is a state issue

Apparently you have never had a warrant from a state while you're living in another state. Neither have I but I do know people who did. It was from Mass to Florida and Florida refused to extradite my friend's son to Mass.

In my friend's case the charge was 3 MM and Florida couldn't be bothered doing anything. He, my friend's son had gotten arrested in Florida and when they ran the check the found out he had a warrants in Mass.

I think TFG situation is civil but probably now it's criminal. I would think not paying money to the courts becomes criminal. Anyway the governor is going to protect him even if it was murder. If it was Federal like 1/6 the DOJ would go get him, at least I would think that.

[Emile]

65. The Travis Translation

United States Constitution

The 'Travis Translation' of Constitution: If somebody is charged with a crime in one state, then runs from the police to another state, the Governor of the state in which the crime was committed can demand the return of that person, and the other state must obey.

[TheRealNorth]

71. That's why I suggested NY State hire a bounty hunter.

Apparently, the bounty hunter only needs to be licensed in FL. Don't know if anyone apprehended by a bounty hunter would need to go through a state extradition process.

I say just throw him in the trunk and drive to NY. His Secret Service detail can ride along if they'd like.

[Tickle]

72. tfg has secret service all around him

The bounty hunters could get killed if they were to approach tfg

LOL I love your last line

[TheRealNorth]

73. If the Bounty Hunter is serving TFG with a legal warrant for his arrest....

The secret service agents would be guilty of aiding and abetting if they resisted. The Secret Service is charged is to protect him from physical danger, not the long arm of the law. That's why I said they could "ride along" if they like.

I know this is all FanFic, but it's fun to think about how it could play out.

[Tickle]

75. Good point

At some point we’ll find out

[Ilsa]

60. Put a lien on one of his properties. nt

[Emile]

67. The NY governor should be demanding the state of Florida

to hand this fugitive of justice over to them.

[hamsterjill]

68. So where are the posts INSISTING that we all aren't patient?

You know, the ones who keep saying it takes a long time to build a case, etc. What’s the excuse this time for Trump not being forced to pay? Can’t he at least put up a bond or something?

Legal minds? What’s next in NY law? Can’t the prosecutor push the issue for enforcement!

[PurgedVoter]

74. Well of course he is having trouble, since rubles have been outlawed as a payment.

Things are going to be pretty tight in the Trump household. The Russian Sanctions have to be hitting him hard.
