Trump attorney Alina Habba said Tuesday that Trump plans to immediately appeal what she called the judge's "fundamentally flawed" decision.

coming from this attorney: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHABBA

I love how there's an ABBA at the end of your laughter like a punctuation mark, must be a very catchy laugh

It’s a reference to the attorney’s last name “Habba”, but sure I’ll take catchy laughter as well.

Hopefully this is Trump’s Waterloo.

He's a billionaire... He can easily afford 10x that...

Edit: maybe I should've said 1000x times that in order to hit home that it was a joke. Or just an /s. Lol

He can't. He's not as rich as he claims. This case showed that. He's also deep in debt.

The only valuable thing about trumps brand is that people think he's successful. Everything he ever touched business wise went the way of the dodo.

I agree. The question is whether or not that knowledge will seep through the cracks of the MAGA bubble.

... is the lie that is going to get every Trump property in New York state confiscated.

A person with greater liabilities than assets is not rich, let alone a billionaire.

Like how he’s begging his supporters to pay his legal fees and his campaign is practically out of money.

I mean, if you had millions of rubes willing to empty their pockets if you do much as sneeze, why wouldn't you save your money and let the gullible foot the bill for you?

It's scummy AF, but I can't say I don't understand why Trump would do that even IF he had the money he claims to have.

Don’t do the /s horseshit, this isn’t some lowbrow reddit clone.

Tf? Tone indicators are actually very useful- especially /s because a sarcastic tone can’t be conveyed over text.

If it bothers you that much, please go outside and touch some grass

Lol “touch grass” again. Real fucking original. Maybe this place is a lowbrow reddit clone.

I mean we already got the annoyingly erratic "this isn't x -website" people that infested every corner of reddit so you might be on to something...

I've spent more time downvoting and hiding bullshit posts about beef stroganoff and killing billionaires than actually consuming content on here.

Everyone is an expert, hot takes are abundant. It's literally reddit without the front page turning over hourly.

Yeah, shit, maybe you’re right. I had high hopes.

Wait.

Did you just concede a point? To someone on the Internet?

Great day in the morning. Maybe you were right after all.

HOLY SHIT I DID IT TOO!

Maybe it isn't a lowbrow Reddit clone. Thanks kind stranger!

There's nothing wrong with being clear about your intent. Especially in a world with alternative facts.

Isn't committing $250 million dollars worth of fraud also considered criminal?
