    I still think she should walk into Trump’s NYC HQ with a deputy and movers. Start with the CFO’s office and clean out all the computers. Then the server room. Then Trump’s office.

    You’ll likely need a SWAT team to hold the on-site security in check. And move quickly before someone can get a bank to issue a cashiers check. The drives in those servers will be worth more than the judgement when sold on eBay.

    Don’t laugh. A guy did this to either Wells Fargo or BofA during the 2000s. The “mistakenly” foreclosed on his home which didn’t have a mortage with the bank. He cleaned out most of a branches computers and office furniture before the branch manager gave him a cashier’s check.

      There’s an episode of ‘Call The Bailifs’(youtube link), a UK debt collectors show; where they walk into an airport and tell the gate crew they are shutting down the terminal and repossessing the plane that’s currently on the tarmac, unless they get corporate on the phone to immediately effect a wire transfer to settle the debt owed to a customer who’s flight was cancelled, no refund, all backed by a court order to pay up.

      They did actually shut down passenger checkins for several hours while they went back and fourth over the phone with corporate. Eventually they left with a fresh bank balance and the plane was allowed to start boarding.

      /edit: I forgot, trying to get back to processing customers asap; a manager for the airline at the terminal, decided to hand over her own money, expecting to get reimbursed by corporate… Wonder how well that worked out for her…

        Best outcome would be that corporate refuses to reimburse, claiming that the payment was entirely the manager’s personal decision that had nothing to do with them, and so the court rules the airline hasn’t paid and the bailiffs can make a second visit.

        And then the manager sues the airline too.

    If the money’s in a legal trust controlled by the court; why hasn’t it already been handed over by the court?

    That fuck has pocketed so much of OUR money yet he can’t stand even parting with a drop of it because that would be against his “a trump never pays” bullshit. What a fucking slimeball.

      that is a separate case that dipshit has yet to exhaust appeals in. i guess they’re now trying to con a judge into combining the two now, so he can whine and cry and bribe a judge into reversing both together.

    I’m thinking the petty little man-baby is going to have the ketchup wiped from the walls while his diaper is changed.

    Frump is like Harland Williams character in Rocket Man. “I’m the first to do, bla bla bla, on Mars.”

    But it’s all bad shit or illegal. “Trump, the first US president to do (add any of a number of things).”
