• Donald Trump has to cut a fat check, and his appeal of the E. Jean Carroll verdict won’t delay that.
  • Within 30 days of the judge’s written judgment, Trump has to turn over either cash or a bond.

    I think you misread what I wrote.

    I said “He doesn’t have it to hand over” not “he doesn’t have to hand it over.”

    He doesn’t have it to hand over because he’s not that rich.

      Shoot, my bad, you’re right. I misread that as “he doesn’t have to hand it over”.

        gonna just point out the collective PTSD we are all suffering. I also initially read it incorrectly and didnt bother re-reading because… well… “its the orange asshole - of course he’s avoiding consequence… again!”

        this puss filled ass boil needs to see jail time.

      Even after you clarified here I still had to analyse those sentences for the difference
