Biden campaign: 'Desperate' Trump lying about money he doesn't have

President Biden’s reelection campaign bashed former President Trump on Monday for claiming he has the cash to pay a $175 million bond in his civil fraud case, and brushing off the prospect that a conviction in another case could cost him the election. Trump scored a major win in New York appeals court earlier in the day when judges paused the enforcement of the $464 million judgment against Trump, the Trump Organization and top executives if they post a $175 million bond within 10 days.

But a New York judge rejected efforts from Trump and his legal team to postpone Trump’s hush money trial, which is set to begin April 15. It will be the first of the former president’s four criminal cases to go to trial, and it will begin nearly six months before election day.

“Donald Trump is weak and desperate – both as a man and a candidate for President,” Biden spokesperson James Singer said in a statement.

“He spent the weekend golfing, the morning comparing himself to Jesus, and the afternoon lying about having money he definitely doesn’t have. His campaign can’t raise money, he is uninterested in campaigning outside his country club, and every time he opens his mouth, he pushes moderate and suburban voters away with his dangerous agenda,” Singer said. “America deserves better than a feeble, confused, and tired Donald Trump.”

...as if the only thing that matters is how much cash one has (or pretends to have).

Yes, we didn't all get the satisfaction of seeing AG James and officers padlocking Trump Tower or Mar a Lago today, but he is still on the hook for the full judgement and related business operation penalties if he loses the appeal. It will be real interesting to see if T attacks the appeals court and judge like he did the trial judge. Can he really be that stupid twice? Sure, he can. Fireworks followed by a solar eclipse queued up.
