22. But it's going to take time to sort all that bullshit out

It's like a house of cards

So what happens if the AG forces the sale of one of his properties? It was likely used as collateral for another loan that may have been used to buy another property, then that one was used as collateral.....and on and on. What happens when the card on the bottom is pulled out? The whole thing comes crashing down. I don't envy Letitia James the job of sorting out this garbage. But maybe she doesn't have to?

He JUST bragged he has $500 million. So why the FUCK did they reduce it? He can pay, right? Novara Mar 25 #1
