It should ONLY come out of his PERSONAL overseas accounts, which I'm sure there are many.

Of course, he'll poor-mouth the court and claim he can't even cover his debts, while the plaintiff's lawyers digs up evidence of one $$$Billion slush fund after another.

due to "inability to pay."

In my experience, the courts say "that's ok; we'll simply garnish 50% of your wages until your debt is paid."

When I defaulted on my student loans years ago, they didn't give a fuck that I couldn't pay; they reached right into my paycheck and siphoned off the maximum that they were allowed to take.

TLDR: Fuck Trump, and I hope Carroll gets $200B out of him.

What is wrong with this fucking poor excuse of a Country? Its 250th Anniversary should be a day of mourning.
