The former president, who is appealing the judgment in his civil fraud case, asked an appeals court to let him avoid paying the full amount in the meantime.

It’s pretty clear he doesn’t have the cash to pay the judgement in full, and will need to sell illiquid assets at a discount in order to pay the full amount.

    It’s like someone playing Monopoly who has to start selling hotels and houses to pay off the Street Repairs card from the Community Chest asking to pay $100 instead.

    Street Repairs: You are assessed for street repair. $40 per house. $115 per hotel

    There should be zero leniency for Trump. Make him sell those hotels at a loss if necessary.
