Donald Trump rails against 'corrupt' judge, 'racist' New York AG James as he faces massive fine
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks during an awards ceremony held at the Trump International Golf Club on 24 March 2024, in West Palm Beach, Florida. He must pay a $454 million fine.Donald Trump faces twin legal crises on Monday in New York, where he could see the possible seizure of his storied properties over a massive fine as he separately fights to delay a criminal trial even further.
Judge Arthur Engoron imposed that fine after finding Trump and his two adult sons guilty in a non-jury trial. In one all-caps message he denounced the judge as"GROSSLY INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT", and in another he said James"GOES AFTER TRUMP FOR DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG!" Despite Trump's supposed inability to secure a bond, he bragged online on Friday that due to"hard work, talent, and luck" he had almost $500 million in cash, which he said he had planned to spend on his election campaign against US President Joe Biden.Trump got some positive financial news on Friday, when it was announced that Truth Social would finally go public through a merger, a transaction that could net him billions of dollars.
The trial involving Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, was originally set to begin Monday, but has been pushed back at least a month. The former president, who has denied having the affair, potentially could face a prison sentence of up to four years if convicted.
