Would you give money to Mr Trump if he called for donations to cover his $83 million civil fine?

[Larniavc]

Multi Billionaire Mr Trump has form for asking regular working Americans to donate to his Trump Save America Joint Fundraising Committee.

"Please make a contribution – of truly any amount – to defend our movement from the never-ending witch hunts and WIN the WHITE HOUSE in 2024," said an email sent by a Trump fundraising group called the Trump Save America Joint Fundraising Committee.

If he does so again for his current financial woes will you step up to help the multi billionaire pay his $83 million fine?

I would create an $83,000,000 bill with his picture on it and send it.

 

[Brihaha]

I didn't see the laughing emoji as a choice so I abstained from voting lol.
I expect few people are willing to vote yes. Their fortitude seems fickle.

 

[CRAZY_CAT_WOMAN]

I won't , but I'm sure plenty of people will .

 

[seeking.IAM]

I can't envision any scenario for which I would make a donation to Mr. Trump. Not then. Not now. Not ever.

 

[Innsmuthbride]

Absolutely I will not ever give him anything!

He made his own bed, he can lay in it.

^^^ He's asking for contributions towards legal fees connected to his campaign there from the looks of it, though I didn't read the article or look at the group asking for money there.

That said, in 2016 I donated 5 dollars to his presidential campaign, nothing in 2020 or 2024...

If I was a person of means I would contribute some money towards both his campaign (max amount allowed by law) and a little towards lawyers fees associated with the "witch hunt" - but I'd be very careful of the language before I would do the later, to make certain it wasn't potentially being used for anything else outside of lawyers fees or court costs. But when I say a little I mean I'd chip in 500 bucks or so.

I do believe in crowd sourcing for stuff like this, but within limits.

Not an 83 million dollar settlement though, no.

Dr John Bridges might have some advice on that.

Trump's more generous than I thought.

He's also been using donor money to pay for his daughter's lawyers.

Donald Trump paid more than $2.3 million in donor money to law firms helping Ivanka Trump with her legal problems last year​

The PAC spent an additional $5.3 million on the law firm Robert & Robert, which represented his three eldest children — Ivanka Trump, Eric Trump, and Donald Trump Jr. — as well as the Trump Organization in an array of lawsuits that have no apparent relation to Trump's campaign to retake the presidency in the 2024 election.

It's not clear why Trump's political donors would have paid for Ivanka Trump's representations in the case. Ethics filings indicate that she and her husband, Jared Kushner, had a net worth of about $1 billion during the Trump presidency, and a financial firm founded by Kushner has raised billions of dollars more after Trump left office.

At least offer me some new NFTs for my trouble.

Haha.

No.

No, my reasons in my original post in the thread I started below.

Trump Could Be Doomed If Convicted - A Trial Occur in Time?

An interesting read from the last couple of weeks ANALYSIS: Polls Show Trump Could Be Doomed If He’s Convicted. Will a Trial Happen in Time? Some summary (both from article and my insights): They express concern if Trump is convicted he could lose 1/3 of support. Article position is other...

A Gofundme has been set up to pay off the $355 million fine in the fraud case.

It's at $71,000 at the moment.

Stand with Trump; Fund the $355M Unjust Judgment​

warning: some of the comments from donors are a bit foul-mouthed.

and shock the conscience."

Why would anyone with self-respect offer money to an elite fraudster like Donald Trump who claims to be some kind of billionaire? It is the epitome of foolishness in my flabbergasted view. America needs a good therapist lol.

 

[JustOneWay]

As expected, GoFundMe accounts will now spring up for the billionaire.

GoFundMe launched for Donald Trump’s ‘unjust’ $350m fine in civil fraud case

‘I stand unwaveringly with President Donald Trump in the face of what I see as unprecedented and unfair treatment by certain judicial elements in New York,’ Elena Cardone wrote

www.independent.co.uk

So far they have raised $78,000! At this rate it will take them over 12 years to reach their goal....they need republican money! Donate

Does GoFundMe permit raising funds to pay off legal fines?

 

[sprknjc]

Also on further thought he violated some of the Ten Commandments, we all have, but leaders are held to a higher standard. You shall not steal, you shall not kill, you shall not bear false witness, and you shall honor your mother and father are ones can think of. Something to think about. Wikipedia article about Trump and some current and recent news reports provide more information.

 

[Larniavc]

Do they send folks to prison for debts in the US?

 

[camille70]

Whenever I hear of Trump asking for money I have a flashback of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. Instead of asking "What does God need with a starship?" I ask, "what does a billionaire need with donations?" It makes NO sense to me.
