Take the golf courses first, I think that would piss him off the most.

[-] RegalPotoo@lemmy.world 75 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Nah, Mar-a-lago first

[-] aseriesoftubes@lemmy.world 23 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

But then he’d be homeless! And we all know how unhoused people are treated in Florida.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

Mar-a-lago IS a golf resort..

[-] zcd@lemmy.ca 22 points 8 months ago

Added bonus there are probably lots of top-secret documents floating around in that golf course

[-] slowwooderrunsdeep@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

There’s probably top secret documents floating around a lot of his golf courses….

Mar-a-Lago, Palm Beach, Florida

Holy shit. I've figured it out. I've cracked the master plan.

"Um, excuse me, stolen classified documents piled high to the rafters in my bathroom? I believe that's the New York attorney general's bathroom, athankyouverymuch. Case dismissed!"

~~This makes the fairly generous assumption that the man is capable of planning, but whatever.~~

Genius play by Master Trump.

[-] Glowstick@lemmy.world 25 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

OMG OMG OMG

I would so LOVE to see his name stripped off of all those properties! ...but I'm still trying to not get my hopes up. Aside from him suffering through court cases and losing them in a very public way, if his properties get seized it would be the first REAL consequences he receives

[-] Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 8 months ago

Depending on the contract the properties might still have to keep the name even if sold. There's a couple cases of that our there currently for Trump buildings. He sold them and they have to keep the name, last thing I heard they were trying to sue to remove the name because of all the bad publicity the trump name brings.

[-] jkrtn@lemmy.ml 5 points 8 months ago

If Donald sells them he can put whatever he likes in the contract. If the government sells them I doubt they'll be encumbered with bullshit like that.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago

Rename them all Drumph, just to give him an aneurysm. When he drops dead rename them after John Brown, MLK Jr, Malcom X, er al.

You left out Trump International Hotel in Chicago.

That's just the excerpt from the article. Unsure why others aren't listed.

He also owns a golf course in Ireland, or his name is on it. Trump Doonbeg

So if these properties are seized and mortgaged to the hilt, he's still responsible for the balance owed, isn't he?

Ahahahahahaha!

[-] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 22 points 8 months ago

I wouldn't think so. I would think they'd seize properties base on only the equity, not the total mortgaged value. Likely why this list is so large, so little equity in any of the properties so more need to be seized to meet the total balance of the judgment.

[-] MisterD@lemmy.ca 7 points 8 months ago

Oh yes he is on the hook for the rest. If Jared won't use some of his 2 billion he got from the Saudi, then Trump goes bankrupt... again.

[-] orcrist@lemm.ee 6 points 8 months ago

If the properties are seized, they'll be sold, not mortgaged, and that amount of money will be applied to what is owed, I believe.

It's often better for people to sell the property themselves first, because a court officer overseeing the sale doesn't care as much about getting the highest possible sale price.

[-] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 39 points 8 months ago

I thought he was a genius billionaire guys

This at the bottom of the article made me laugh so hard. Somehow the maga trolls are butthurt enough to think this constitutes far left.

[-] I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 37 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

It starts there until you rate it. I've seen it a couple times now. It's just bad design.

after all that... he still has to pay back the ~90million to the chubb group when he eventually loses that appeal.

delicious

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

No, for that he already provided a juicy pack of securities that he provided in the hope they would also do the new bond secured by real estate.

The bond provider basically pulled the self-proclaimed "business genius" straight over the table. I expect him to lose the appeal, which would cost Trump way more than just USD91M.

[-] YurkshireLad@lemmy.ca 26 points 8 months ago

Quit yacking and do it. Take the properties and give Trump what he deserves. I hope this isn't another story that fizzles out.

[-] Ranvier@sopuli.xyz 18 points 8 months ago

He has a few more days technically, then she can start seizing. There's one month after the ruling to come up with the money.

Mar a Lago used to be owned by the US Government and the Beatles

I have good news for you.

"Judge Engoron actually wants me to put up Hundreds of Millions of Dollars for the Right to Appeal his ridiculous decision. In other words, he is trying to take my Appellate Rights away from me," Trump wrote. "I would be forced to mortgage or sell Great Assets, perhaps at Fire Sale prices, and if and when I win the Appeal, they would be gone. Does that make sense? WITCH HUNT. ELECTION INTERFERENCE!"

How is that election interference? I'm missing that part.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 18 points 8 months ago

It's not. Trump is just banking on his cult uncritically repeating any gibberish he spouts in all caps as unassailable truth. Like they always do.

Can we start with Mar a Lago? That would he hilarious.

I was hoping they’d at least get Trump Tower or Mar-a-Lago, but this is fucking amazing.

[-] Deello@lemm.ee 7 points 8 months ago

Highly unlikely but if everything happens before the election can he just get the properties back if he gets elected again?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

New York Attorney General Letitia James could soon start seizing some of Donald Trump's properties if the former president cannot come up with a $464 million bond in his civil fraud case.

On Monday, Trump's lawyers filed a document in court saying they are unable to secure the bond amount, which has increased from $454 million because of interest, in the civil fraud case brought by James.

Last month, Trump was ordered by Judge Arthur Engoron to pay the fine in a judgment that said he inflated the value of his assets and properties on financial statements to banks and insurers while trying to get loans and make deals.

Newsweek reviewed a document from the attorney general's office that lists properties owned by Trump that had "fraudulent" and "misleading" values and could end up seized:

In a post to his Truth Social account this week, Trump criticized the judgment handed down by Engoron and said he may have to sell some of his properties to come up with the bond amount.

"Judge Engoron actually wants me to put up Hundreds of Millions of Dollars for the Right to Appeal his ridiculous decision.
