Mark Cuban Defends Trump After Dem Rep. Accused Him of Being Too Broke to Pay $464 Million Judgment
New York Post ^ | March 19, 2024 | Victor Nava

Mark Cuban defended Donald Trump Tuesday after a Democratic lawmaker accused the former president of lying about his net worth. Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) used the hashtag “TrumpIsBroke” in a post on X after the former president’s lawyers told a New York court that the 77-year-old failed to secure the nine-figure bond sum in his civil fraud case despite approaching more than 30 firms.

“Trump claims he is a billionaire. But he can’t pay a $464 million judgment. That means he is lying. How do I know? Math,” Lieu wrote. Cuban, a billionaire entrepreneur and former “Shark Tank” host, came to Trump’s defense In a lengthy response to the Democratic congressman, arguing that “Net worth is completely different than cash in the bank.”

“Ted, you know I’m no supporter of Trump. That’s for damn sure,” Cuban, 65, began his post. “How anyone can vote for someone who has so many of his executive employees turn on him, and, say he is incompetent is beyond me.”

What I’ve been curious about is why so many who have worked with President Trump in the WH have turned against him as mentioned by Cuban. Almost no one turned against Obama, or even Bush or Clinton but so many have no problem stabbing DJT.

Is he difficult? Is it all political pressure to trash him? Maybe both? Kelly, his Chief of Staff for a while said it was the most difficult job he ever had...everything was “transactional”. I actually don’t know what that means.

That being said...I won’t vote for anyone else...he got results!

I think the only conclusion is that he picks them that way.

Do you know what you call someone who stores their wealth in cash?

Poor.

Not even people of moderate wealth keep cask in a savings account, or that is, only a little in those accounts.

“...why so many who have worked with President Trump in the WH have turned against him..”

I have thought about that too. He being an outsider, a non-politician really didn’t know how the game is played and depended on some he knew for staff recommendations. I heard, for instance, he received some names for his administration from Christie. He had no loyalists to work with other than his family.

He knows now, and I suspect he has a White House staff and administration lined up now who will work as hard as he does and stand by him..He learned the hard way, but he learned.

I’m guessing the transaction happened in NYC, but it includes valuation of all his assets.

Personal assets within the state may be executed against unless specifically exempted by State Law.

Just keep the jet out of New York. Make them transfer the Judgment to Florida where Trump can collaterally attack the Judgment if Florida law allows it.

She might have trouble with that. I assume that there are more than a few Secret Service devices on board that the agents might not want her to have. With any luck, they will shoot her on sight.

Ask Mark how many of his executives when threatened by the FBI, IRS, DOJ, State and local law enforcement would stand up for Mark or prefer to be Bubba’s cellmate in Federal Prison……. Is that banjo music I hear Bubba? 😱😱😱

“If Cuban supports Biden then it means he supports Biden’s program to transform America...”

That’s the logical conclusion. Wonder what’s in it for him.

The domestic enemies know this and gave him such a short time to pay so they could seize his assets. It’s theft plain and simple and if Trump wins this election God willing I pray he will get an AG that will actually do something this time and indict these pig bastards.
