“Waaaah!”

Kilmeade: You have to come up with $400 million, how close are you to securing the bond?

Trump: I have a lot of money. I can do what I want to do.

Kilmeade: So you’re not worried about the money?

He has “a lot of money” but the judgment is “illegal” and the judge was “crooked” and Letitia James campaigned to get him, and besides they’re appealing the decision.

Which is what the appeal bond is for. The one your lawyers told the court you can’t afford.

Put your money where your mouth is. Because blathering on FixNews is not going to postpone the day of judgement execution.  When Carroll and James start taking your buildings away, get back to us about how much money you have.

This guy is like the old Soviet Union: a fearsome army on paper. In reality? Nuthin’. And like the experts who didn’t see the USSR collapse until we all did, the experts and pundits will insist Trump is rich until his house of cards collapses.

ADDING:

I always yield to superior knowledge:

TBF, I did read a book (I swear the author's name was David Copperfield, but I can't find it anywhere) just before my first trip to the USSR in '86 that analyzed just how much a paper tiger their armed forces/nation was. And then there's George Kennan, who predicted the collapse back on the 60s (admittedly, his timeline and reasoning weren't entirely accurate).

CW, though (I’m not arguing the point, mind), was that the USSR would be our formidable foe for as long as rivers run and governments stand. This from the same geniuses who said we could defeat North Vietnam, mind. It justified the world they had built, and the sunk costs alone meant they couldn’t be wrong. 

But they were so, so wrong.

John LeCarre argued we could have joined Russia with Europe in the interregnum between Gorbachev and Putin. I think the latter proves culture is too imperial a force, as the Bolshevik revolution found out (essentially trading tsars for Stalins, and now Putin. Pretty direct line there).  But we didn’t really try.

Culture, as I say, is imperial.

Yeah, we could have known. We should have known. We didn’t want to.
