I don’t think he should pay.
Let them sieze his property, let them destroy it.
Let the Nation and the World see how NY State does business.
Then, take the Judge, State, and AG to Federal Court for violation of his 4th and 8th Amendment rights. When he wins, sue the State of NY for Election interference and personal injury, from violation of Constitutional rights and Election interference. Let the NY State Employees watch their pension funds dissolve to pay off Trump and the GOP.
That’s going to be alot of angry cops, fireman, and teachers........
I’m with you.
Stiff ‘em for the half bil; force them to seize the properties, campaign TORRIDLY on the Democrat disaster those optics will create — I mean mercilessly expound:
THIS IS WHO DEMOCRATS ARE! THIS IS THEIR TYRANNY ON DISPLAY THIS IS THEIR PLAN TO DESTROY AMERICAN BUSINESS; TO DEVOUR THE FRUITS OF EVERY MAN’S LABOR, TO BURN THE HEART OUT OF AMERICAN DREAM, REDUCING IT TO ASHES IN THE NEVER-SATED FIRE OF OVERREACHING, OVER-REGULATING, OPPRESSIVE LEFTIST GOVERNMENT! THEY WON’T STOP WITH ME! THEY’VE GOT PLANS FOR YOU, TOO; PLANS TO SPEND YOUR EARNINGS, YOUR RETIREMENT FUNDS, THE INHERITANCE YOU WERE HOPING TO LEAVE FOR THE KIDS — THEY’RE INTENT ON CONSUMING IT ALL, AND LEAVING YOU BEGGING TO EAT BUGS!
then ram the legal pendulum back the other way in a nuclear inferno of retribution. Set damages at tenfold MINIMUM. DRIVE NY to it’s KNEES, and FORCE them to give him back NOT ONLY the properties they seized, but scores more. Make Trump not only President, but Majority Shareholder of NYC.
