Funny Money

You know, all of this news about the election is wearing me down . . .

It looks like Monday (March 25) will be a red-letter day for the American justice system as far as Donald Trump is concerned.  New York State Attorney General Letitia James has demanded that pay a bond penalty totalling the nearly half a billion dollars that he owes the state and he had until Monday to pay it.  Trump has indicated that he has the cash, even though there's no evidence that he has that sort of cash available to him. While it won't happen overnight, James could start the process as early as then to seize some of Trump's properties.

It's nice to think that a possible seizure of buildings like Trump Tower (above) and other real estate holdings could start happening very,very soon, but in fact it could take awhile.  And if that weren't enough, Trump may end up having a white knight - possibly a Saudi or Russian interest - that bails him out literally and figuratively and then demands a quid pro quo from Trump should he end up backing the WHite House.   And I think the laws are such that Trump doesn't have to disclose where he gets his sudden cash infusion.    

I hope Attorney General James gets hold of Trump Tower, because, as with Hitler's Chancellery, I would have to see it demolished, the ground underneath salted, and the plot never to be developed. again.
