He is complaining that he cannot come up with the money to pay the judgement, or a bond to guarantee it. Never mind that he and his attorneys have previously insisted that he has more than enough to cover the judgment.

Habba could have easily denied that Trump would ever consider seeking funds from foreign dictators to satisfy his personal legal bills. But she didn&#8217;t. And the prospect of Trump keeping that option open makes him a grave threat to national security. He would be beholden to the likes of Vladimir Putin or Mohammed bin Salman.<\/p>\n<p>Even before this revelation, it was apparent that Trump is threat to American democracy. He incited a violent insurrection in an attempt steal the 2020 election. He has yearned for the tyrannical powers of dictators like Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. He pledges to persecute and imprison his political foes. He has said that he would <em>&#8220;terminate&#8221;<\/em> parts of the Constitution.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=55596\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Literally Calls for Termination of the Constitution and FREAKS OUT Over Bogus Fox News Story<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Trump even said explicitly &#8211; more than once &#8211; that he would <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/white-house-warns-democracy-threat-after-trump-repeats-dictator-remark-2023-12-11\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">rule as a dictator <em>&#8220;on day one.&#8221;<\/em><\/a><\/strong> And anyone who believes that he would relinquish his dictatorship the next day is terminally na\u00efve, or a MAGA cult disciple.
