Judge Anil Singh’s ruling in Manhattan Supreme Court allows Trump and his two adult sons to stay in control of their companies while the former president seeks to appeal the massive fine.

The Trumps can also continue to apply for loans from financial institutions chartered or registered in New York during this time, the judge ruled

      US banks have refused to do business with him for decades; that’s why he had to turn to Deutsche Bank in the first place. And when they balked, he had to turn to the Russians and Saudis.

        Nah he will try to value his estates at several billions, making him more than good for it, and hope to get the loans dirt cheap as he always has done.
        Like when right outside the court he slandered Jean Carroll again, just after being fined for it!
        IDK if he is stupid enough to do that, he might instead value his underpants at several billion, and hope some bank will buy it.

        For a possible future president? Likely at 0.0%

        They will make their money back in politcal grift later.

              Third times a charm?

              (naw, you’re totally right. I wonder if we could generate some kind of AI deep fake of something degenerate enough to get the Pubies on board?)
              (maybe… an AI deepfake of Mike Johnson getting freaky with, ah… somebody or something. Then try ‘maga2020’ on trump’s truth social account and drop it that way… or maybe it’s ‘maga2024’? Oh, he’s screaming, so it’s probably MAGA2024)

      He was just found to be lying though his teeth about his financial situation and the value of the things he uses as colatteral.

      Even if some bank where to decide to loan him money, the shareholders of the bank might sue the bank. I can only imagine trump is radioactive for loans.

      So his only chance would be from personal loans. And how do we feel about a president with massive personal loans to unnamed billionaires.

      Coming soon: a 0% interest loan for 150% of his obligations from a bank owned by a Russian oligarch with a million ties to Putin.
