The verdict comes after a dramatic day in court that included the former president storming out of the courtroom during Carroll's closing argument.

$83 million

That's 638.46 stormies, for those playing along at home.

She'll probably never see a dime of it, but damn it's nice to see that orange bastard lose hard.

Oh there's more to come when Judge Engoron issues his ruling and decides the penalties Trump faces in Manhattan. He could be out half a billion dollars in February with this case included. There's still more pain coming in all his other court cases to boot. This guy is getting what's coming to him and it is delicious.

Speaking of, what's the status on that sideshow?

We have to wait on the judge in February for his ruling. He's already been found guilty, this time it's what the punishment will entail. Letitia James AG was looking for 370 million, and banning him from NY state real estate industry for 5 years.

Correction, the sons banned for 5 years, Trump permanently. Also they want to ban him from being an officer or director in NY state of a corporation.

At this rate, based on his defense (and mumbling), I wouldn't be surprised if his appeal ends up generating a third trial that costs him even more money.

What a pathetic loser.

Excuse me:

AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. HAAAAH.

I hope the amount goes up on every appeal. Teach a lesson the best way out is to obey the original judgement.
