Today's Tiedrich rant: ha ha ha ha Donald Trump can't pay for his appeal and the judge told him tough shit



Link: https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/ha-ha-ha-ha-donald-trump-cant-pay

Little Donny Fuckface is good at exactly one thing: bullshitting. it’s his whole business model: conning the rubes into believing he’s the savviest honcho who ever lived. it’s how he got banks to lend him money — by tricking them into believing his shitty properties were worth billions.

it’s how he got investors to finance his failing casinos — by filling their heads with nonsense about how he was going to make them rich. and it’s how he became president — by conning low-information voters into believing he was going to personally buy each of them a pony.

which is why it’s super fucking hilarious that yesterday, the bullshitting bullshitter who claimed in 2015 to be worth TEN BILLION DOLLARS had to admit to a judge that he can’t come up with the money he needs to appeal the Big Trump Family Business Fraud Fuckery judgment.

... “please let me off the hook, judge” he whined, offering to pay less than 25 cents on the dollar — a classic slumlord move — but Associate Justice Anil Singh was all no, fuck straight off with that nonsense.

Quote:
Former President Donald Trump must come up with the full amount to cover the $454 million verdict in the civil fraud trial, an appeals court judge ruled Wednesday.

Great rant by Tiedrich, including some silly/funny gifs for those who enjoy that sort of thing... (and I do!)

Also a great rant on the US Supreme Court, and their apparent willingness to allow Chump another delay, when we all know their ruling will be final and inevitable: "No Donny you don't have presidential immunity, and this is all complete bullshit." But as long as SCOTUS plays along, the clock keeps ticking towards our general election on November 5th. Will Chump still be standing then?
