The court-ordered independent monitor of the fraud-friendly Trump Organization is like Donald Trump having a conservator.

It is surprising this is a thing Nikki Haley has not said on the campaign trail. That Trump can't be trusted to run his own company without oversight I should think would be a thing Haley would want to call to the attention of voters.

"Will the man never stop getting his ass kicked by women? E. Jean Carroll. New York Attorney General Letitia James. Now Judge Jones will make sure there's no fast shuffling with the company's assets. Fani Willis is still on deck, as is Stormy Daniels. For now, he's going to have to beg for cab fare. From a woman. That has to sting."

More than the sum itself, I'm delighted to imagine Trump having to ask for cab fare from the retired judge now in charge of his finances.

Possibly due to issues the financial #monitor #BarbaraJones reported to Judge #Engoron; such as:

The $50M loan that never was for the #Chicago #Trump property.

Trump’s $50 Million Mystery Debt Looks Like ‘Tax Evasion’

Donald Trump has long claimed he personally owed tens of millions to an obscure entity related to his Chicago tower. But court docs claim Trump Org. now says it never existed.
