Letitia James Taunts Trump With Stark Daily Reminders And People Are 'So Here' For It

Source: Huff Post

Feb 26, 2024, 03:11 AM EST


New York Attorney General Letitia James is publicly keeping tabs on the interest that is accumulating on the hundreds of millions of dollars that Donald Trump has been ordered to pay following the civil fraud trial that James’ office brought against the former president and his Trump Organization in New York.

Judge Arthur Engoron earlier this month ruled Trump pay $355 million in damages after the Republican 2024 front-runner was found to have engaged in fraudulent business practices for decades.

With interest on top, the total penalty topped $450 million. With more than $100,000 in interest being added to the total every day, James on Friday made a note of the current tally on X (formerly Twitter).

On Saturday, James did the math on the interest that had been added over the previous 24 hours. ″+$114,553.04,” she quote-tweeted her initial post. Then, on Sunday, James wrote: “+$114,553.04 = $464,805,336.70.”

with the amount of debt increasing by the minute.

--- like the one in NYC that shows the national debt increase by the second.

Some Republicans called the move “classless” and suggested it could be used in a potential appeal by Trump, who has baselessly claimed the case was a political witch-hunt designed to harm his 2024 campaign.


Republicans are hardly in a position to judge whether something is "classless" or has class in the first place.

In explicit sex photos. Not just the ones where she wags her naked butt at the camera while on Trump's plane. In these other photos she's getting down with her girlfriend.

Real first class there. Even though she's clearly a talented Slovanian sex worker, the stinking Nazi had to find a another porn star to bang while she was pregnant.

in Al Goldstien's Screw magazine and in Larry Flynt's Hustler magazine, albeit without her consent. They can be easily found on the internet.

I suspect we'll see a trial wherein the biggest question and biggest interest will be to determine Trumps actual net worth.
It's a win-win for all Trump haters. If he's really a billionaire: he pays out the entire amount, screw his inconvenience. If he really can't pay it: he's a lying fraud and MAGA will finally see the emperor's nakedness.

His die-hard supporters are incapable of independent thought. Fucking lemmings in a cult.

DJT shouts . . . Witch hunt! I'm the victim here! I'm not paying!

And his financial backers go . . . Too much! Count me out! With the entities already invested in Trump's doings trying really hard to extricate their money from the disaster.

And his Deplorables go . . . Sad to see our Messiah go! False prophet! Got to join a different cult!

And James goes . . . Bankruptcy! Fire sale!

And NY office space (et al) take a tumble in value.

The bleach needed to wash the Trump shit-stain off America is going to affect a lot of people.
