With an estimated net worth of approximately $2.6 billion, Donald Trump (77) should not be doing too badly financially. However, a few days ago the former American president was sentenced to a punishment that probably did not leave even the Republicans indifferent. He must raise as much as $355 million.
Insiders report that Trump will be bankrupt after this. The “devastating defeat” could “wipe out Trump’s entire money supply,” according to the New York Times, among others.
The civil case concerned the future of Trump’s business empire. Prosecutors accused him of manipulating the value of the Trump Organization for years to get cheaper loans and insurance contracts. “The complete lack of remorse and insight is almost pathological,” Judge Engoron wrote in the order.
Trump fans start petition
Despite the verdict, thousands of Trump supporters do not see the Republican as a criminal, but as a victim. They therefore promptly started a petition. The goal: to jointly pay off Trump’s 355 million fine.
“My name is Elena Cardone and I am a fierce supporter of America’s values of justice. “I stand firmly with President Donald Trump,” the Go Fund Me petition says. The numerous lawsuits Trump is currently involved in are “not just an attack on him, but an attack on fairness.”
Cardone also claims the ruling would attempt to “silence a voice that has been at the forefront of America’s strength, prosperity and security.” At the same time, the amount of one million dollars is used to “scare all entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs.”
More than 13,000 donors
So the fundraiser was not just set up for Trump. Rather, it is meant to set an example, Cardone emphasizes: “It’s about showing that no one is alone in standing up for the values that make America great.” It is also time for entrepreneurs to come together to show “strength and determination” together.
Apparently these words were well received by the American people. More than 13,000 people donated in just four days. Together they have already raised more than $700,000. An anonymous person paid the entrepreneur the maximum amount of $10,000. (madam/SDA)
