Trump gets a $355 million kick to the crotch, will he pay up?
- Thread starter Ceiling Cat
- Start date
But he got a lower interest rate - or access to the loan $. And some of the debts were not paid back. He went bankrupt and screwed creditors a lot.
Your opinion is noted but answer my question. When this gets overturned how mad will you people be?You might see that in your dreams. There is a new word out there, errogant. It's when someone is seriously wrong, but are to wrapped up in themselves to admit it. Smelvis and his crowd fit that definition...
When rump is done, who are you going to get to replace him?
What's the lie? Real estate value is fluid. And the bank testified the were just fine.
Wow! Like to see details on where Trump ever "paid back" a loan - rolled over, maybe...
OH, NO! Our state's getting boycotted!
. Maybe people like MTG and Tucker Carlson will stay away now...Look at the testimony. And yes, he has paid back a crapload of them. He had to to get where he is.
I'm kind of surprised to see this comment from you. From our MERB days, you seemed to fashion yourself as a successful business person. By the way you got very chummy with the girls, I suspect you might have been focused on the sales and marketing side. So perhaps you can be pardoned if you weren't directly engaged in the financial and accounting side.
As Butler noted, there are routinely different appraisals for different purposes. There is never any legal requirement they all reconcile. When this charge was first announced, some members were trying to make the case that Trump was defrauding the city and county on his real estate tax basis. This would be very difficult to do. There might be different perspectives on value, but County Appraisers make the determination not the property owner and his appraisers. The county appraisal will be subject to all sorts of mechanisms/limitations and not directly reflect market values. When a property is sold, the property will be re-assessed.
Bank appraisals, insurance appraisals and all down the line will all have different methodologies based on their varying business objectives.
This Judge sounded to me like an anti-Trump avenger who simply decided to throw out the business principles in a case regarding private business transactions.
Jalimon, you are a world class monger and you represent the values of TERB. That's a good thing...... a fair thing. Others just come to TERB to carry their political torch to more and more social media sites.
No offense, but I think you're trying to shoehorn an analogy here.
Palm Beach real estate isn't even in the same universe as hot dog buns.
Trump broke the law.
The law is clear, you can't lie to banks, insurance companies and IRS giving different valuations of your property to avoid paying interest, insurance and taxes.
The evidence has been publicly known for years, its just taken this long to hit the courts.
Why would you be against elitists having to abide by the same rules and laws as the rest of us?
Just trying to point out you can play a bit in a grey zone with your accountants, banks, etc... But if you overdo it you will eventually get caught.
Trump has fraud everything he could for years and years...
If Trump was really rich he would have been so dangerous. Imagine a Bezos or Gates with the mental disorder of Trump
No offense again, but you are not saying anything specifically. Yeah, there are grey zones and most of them don't amount to illegality.Just trying to point out you can play a bit in a grey zone with your accountants, banks, etc... But if you overdo it you will eventually get caught.

Another prominent member recently made the almost child-like argument I'm fine with going after Trump people because rich people get away with too much. This is the age-old many rich people are bad sentiment. Clearly, this about getting Trump as this case is unprecedented. In other words, no other "rich" people are being prosecuted for such matters. It would be naive to think that these situations don't exist elsewhere. We also know this Trump appraisal situation existed before Trump was President.
In any event, it doesn't matter how any of us feel about this. The court decision will likely be overturned or retried. The large fine will not stand.
