Why I'm not angry about the NY Court of Appeals ruling......
1) This is about the Appeal BOND, not the Judgement. The full $454 M judgement still stands, pending appeal.

2) Because of the Bond, the NY Attorney General will collect 1/3 of the entire judgement immediately upon denial of the appeal. There wasn't going to be a fast collection if the Bond haven't been issued, given the complexity of Trump's real estate holdings.

3) the New York Court of Appeals is made up of Democrats, appointed by Democratic Governors. If they thought this ruling was appropriate, I'm going to accept their legal judgement.

Of course, they are still going to find a way to blame Trump and Republicans for this disaster.

President Trump was seen recently with a 10mm socket wrench so......

The amount is based on the value of Trump's shares in the new merged company. It is also based on the projected price when the stock goes public. Trump has to wait six months before he can sell. So that $3 billion is based on him selling ALL his shares, but we have no idea what a company with no assets, few subscribers and no advertisers will be selling for in 6 months

Although it took quite a bit longer than usual to log into my brokerage account today, I suspect due to high trading volume, I did manage to buy a few shares of DJT of which I considered it to be my patriotic duty.

Just doing my part to further the goals of Capitalism.  :tongue:

I’m afraid people will take the opportunity and advantage to boast themselves making unwarranted comments and claims.

Hopefully the media will not give them any credence to their claims.

This was horrible and needs to be addressed as an accident and nothing else.

I wonder who imanamerican63 has in mind with "unwarranted comments and claims". Conspiracy-theorists are not solely of one political party/inclination. I looked through the thread about this on another Conservative discussion site and did find one post saying the ship turned toward the bridge (which is true) and that it looked intentional. Other posts are just giving information, with a couple saying the turn probably was not intentional. As for the member who claimed it looked intentional, she's a known CTist fruitcake who love posting links to clickbait sites.

OTOH, I wonder if imanamerican63's comment is double-edged, a hope that DUpipo won't try to blame Trump or MAGApublicans or "Christian Nationalists". I man, Trump did extinct the dinosaurs, right?

Just one data point. Just a discussion, but I think it's a tiny little light at the end of a very dark tunnel.

That light at the end of the tunnel is the choo-choo train, getting ready to run all over! :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

One small data point in my red town in
a red county in Iowa.

Today, I was looking at Facebook...yes, I use Facebook, now that we're past that, there was a post on one of the forums for people in our town.

It is filled, usually, with right wing bullshit. ETA: It is also the spot for local information, so that's why I go there.

Today, there was a post about SNAP and people not getting it.

I read it and was ready to see the right wingers get all exercised about SNAP even existing.

I was shocked. There was one guy who is always an assclown and he was at his baseline, but the rest....white, conservative men, talking about how the governor is at fault for this and how our Republican congress person (Hinson) won't help at all. It devolved into a discussion (with people I know are Republicans) talking about how we need to change course and maybe consider voting for Democrats.

Just one data point. Just a discussion, but I think it's a tiny little light at the end of a very dark tunnel.

The development news about the Key Bridge is horrible.
The bridge was struck by a cargo ship.

I’m afraid people will take the opportunity and advantage to boast themselves making unwarranted comments and claims.

Hopefully the media will not give them any credence to their claims.

This was horrible and needs to be addressed as an accident and nothing else.

I pray for those who were on the bridge at the time of the accident.


DUmmies know what they would do if Trump was president.  They would excoriate him as this being his fault and now they're afraid of what is coming.  Democrats surround this whole thing and it terrifies them, especially in an election year.

Wait, it won't be long and they will find SOME piece of solid evidence to prove that Trump himself inspected that bridge and is solely responsible for this accident.

Oops.  I thought this thread was about the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore.  I'm afraid quite a few police-forces are going to extremely preoccupied for the next few hours...
