“But the Trumpian part is that even though, or perhaps because, it may be part of a Trump scam, Knight now too may be on the hook for $175 million as it won’t automatically get out from underneath its own proffered surety.”
Hankey, a billionaire, has already said that his company will be able to post the money for Trump.
He was reacting to a comment on X by lawyer Dave Kingman, who wrote that Knight will not be able to post the $175 million.
“Understand that Knight Specialty has a problem. This bond cannot be approved. Under the CPLR [Civil Practice Laws and Rules] the surety will remain obligated under the bond until a replacement bond is filed. Trump is unlikely to get a replacement bond. Knight Spec will be liable AND Trump won’t have a stay [on enforcement],” he wrote.
My favorite is when racists say “We’ve had a black president so we can’t be a nation of racists.”
Like…somehow having a black president now makes it okay for all of the shit conservatives want to do.
“Thanks Obama”
They did it on CNN. I remember some Republican prick saying, “you know why we’re not racist? Obama.”
It just so happened that the racists got outvoted. Their party really seized upon being racists though.
Oh, so did that repub vote for Obama, then? I realize that was on tv, but when I hear that IRL, I’ll ask if they voted for Obama. If they did, could they explain why the hell we had the birtherism shit? And why donnie, who is king of the birthers, is the choice of the cons and how did he get into office?
