And now exactly would that be any different than conservatives getting their information from Fox News (proven liars) and other right wing sources?

Are you opposed to those policies? That we can discuss vs. jumping up and down saying he is going to be dictator and intentionally taking things out of context which seems to be where we are today.
My morning paper informs me oil production is very high. So much so that all equipment needed for drilling and fracking is in use. How much more can Trump do? We export a lot of natural gas. Another terminal will be built on the Texas coast.

If you fail to come up with the money, and the government seizes your property, those are grounds for a lawsuit against the government?

He’s like a 10 dollar crack ***** hanging her butt out in some cut off shorts on Main St. at the moment. Even his attorneys admit he is very much for sale.
We'll see if he shows up tomorrow with a half a billion$ check in hand. Could be a last minute gift (loan/IOU) from Putin or Saudis or whoever.

Ok. Enough. I need you to explain to this simpleton uneducated peasant exactly how, including facts and solid concrete info just how Donald Trump will destroy the US as a republic.
I’d like to know, like specifically, how he will do this. Because so far it has yet to be laid out.
Answers like “because” “he’s a conman” “a racist” etc, do not convey in a logical and factual based manner exactly how he is going to destroy the country. Please provide examples with proof. I eagerly await your response. Thank you.

Most would not actually be able to front him the money, on any terms.
Liquidity is not just in the form of cash. Selling stocks or bonds, withdrawing $$$$$ from an investment account, it may take a few days and can then be wired directly. Big commerce is done all the time, people who are billionaires have ways of moving their money to where they want.

This for sure

Exactly.

Nobody on the up and up is going to be backing his play here to the tune of half a billion.

Biden's SOTU address didn't give him a bump in the polls at all, and all this money he's spending on ads is not helping either, because his ads are all anti-Trump and don't provide solutions to problems.

Among people who already support him. That doesn't result in additional votes.

I thought, generally speaking, that judgements were often held in abeyance while appeals were pending. So my question is, how can James seize Trump's assets now? What happens if the judgement is overturned on appeal?
