The clocking is ticking for Donald Trump to secure a $454 million bond by Monday or have his assets seized by New York Attorney General Letitia James – and liberals can’t contain their glee.
‘You-know-who says he cannot come up with the cash,’ gushed Whoopi Goldberg on ‘The View ‘ Wednesday.
President Joe Biden couldn’t resist twisting the knife when he spoke at a Democrat fundraiser Wednesday night.
‘Just the other day this defeated looking man came up to me and said: ‘Mr. President I need your help. I’m in crushing debt. I’m completely wiped out,’ Biden joked.
His punchline: ‘Donald, I’m sorry. I can’t help you.’
The crowd roared.
Isn’t it hysterical when the legal system targets your opponent?
In February, a state Supreme Court ordered Trump to pay the giant penalty after he and the Trump Organization were found to have falsified financial statements, and misled banks and insurance companies.
Now, the former president is being blocked by the Democrat AG from appealing the ruling until he pays up – and you’d think Christmas came early for the Left.
‘I can’t believe it,’ chuckled Mika Brzezinski on her MSNBC show.
Brzezinski was joined by former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann, one of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s top deputies in the hoax Russian collusion investigation.

You won’t be shocked to hear that he fears — wait for it! — more Kremlin interference.
‘Everyone’s national security concern is that there will be somebody, just hypothetically, like a… Russian oligarch who thinks this is a very good investment [and bails Trump out], he said.
‘No one wants to lend [Trump] the money in this country,’ chirped ‘The View’ co-host Joy Behar. ‘Who knows what will happen with Russia and Saudi Arabia…’
It’s Russia, Russia, Russia and 2016 all over again.
Trump can’t secure this gargantuan bond. No insurance company is in the business of taking real estate as collateral.
So, he’s in a tough spot and Democrats believe their lawfare has finally drawn blood.
‘I can’t wait to see the chains on Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue. I’m kind of excited about it,’ squealed ‘The View’s’ Sunny Hostin.
How foolish.
What these unhinged Leftists don’t understand – and never will – is that they are shooting themselves in the foot.
Nothing’s better for Republican unity than Democratic lunacy.
If anything will convince stubborn Never-Trumpers to overcome their misgivings and vote for the ex-president this November, it’s this brazen, extra-legal, nation-destroying madness.
Yes, it appears Trump inflated his assets. And fraud is never acceptable. But it is nearly half-a-billion dollars bad?
Put this penalty in perspective — Bitcoin fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried’s bail was $250 million.

And that was for a criminal, not a civil case like Trump’s.
Notorious Ponzi-schemer Bernie Madoff’s bail was initially set at $10 million—and prosecutors eased the terms after he failed to secure it.
Those men were potential flight risks who harmed real victims. They deserved a burdensome bail.
But Trump is running for President, so he’s not fleeing anywhere.
And there are no victims in this supposed crime of the century.
No financial institution lost money lending to the Trump Organization – and no one claimed to have been deceived, let alone ‘defrauded,’ by the Trump Organization.
What’s more, apparently all major real estate players juice their assets to secure favorable loans.
Don’t just take it from me.
Here’s ‘Mr. Wonderful’ Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary, himself: ‘If we’re going to [fine Trump], let’s penalize all the developers all across America. They’ve all done the same thing,’ he said last month. ‘All of them should go to jail and we should stop building buildings.’
‘I would never invest in New York now,’ declared O’Leary. ‘And I’m not the only person saying that.’
A spooked New York Governor Kathy Hochul tried her best at damage control – but blundered into saying the quiet part out loud.
‘This is really an extraordinary, unusual circumstance that the law-abiding and rule-following New Yorkers who are businesspeople have nothing to worry about because they’re very different than Donald Trump and his behavior,’ she told a New York radio station.
You see, Trump was prosecuted because he’s Donald Trump. As long as New Yorkers don’t threaten the Democratic establishment – they’ll be safe, says the governor.
It’s official, we’ve gone full-blown banana republic!
No financial institution lost money lending to the Trump Organization – and no one claimed to have been deceived, let alone ‘defrauded,’ by the Trump Organization.
New York State Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron denies Trump a jury trial, then assumes full control of the case and concludes mid-trial that Trump’s palatial Mar-a-Lago estate is worth as little as a laughable $18 million.
And it gets worse.
During Tish James’s 2018 campaign for AG, she vowed to pursue Trump, calling him an ‘illegitimate president.’
Did anyone not think the fix was in the moment she filed the lawsuit?
Then, there’s this judge, New York State Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron.
First, he denies Trump a jury trial, then assumes full control of the case and concludes mid-trial that Trump’s palatial Mar-a-Lago estate is worth as little as a laughable $18 million.
Your Honor, have you ever taken a spin through Palm Beach on Zillow? Empty lots are going for $200 million.
If your Spidey-sense is going off, it’s not just you.
In New York, there’s no bail for murderous thugs who roam the streets of the Big Apple.
Yet a Republican presidential candidate, leading in the polls against Uncle Joe, gets no such mercy.
Folks in the Bronx, Brooklyn, and other crime-ravaged NYC neighborhoods would love to see that reversed.
No one can earnestly look at what’s been done to Trump and see anything other than a vindictive witch hunt – and America is watching.
Who wants to live in a country where you’re targeted by the all-powerful state simply for holding the ‘wrong’ opinions?
Never-Trumpers and supporters of Nikki Haley have a choice this November: It’s either Trump or these vicious leftists, who’ll stop at nothing to injure their political opponents.
It won’t be a hard choice.
