A federal jury on Friday ordered Rudy Giuliani to pay a total of $148 million to two former Georgia election workers who were at the center of baseless claims he spread after the 2020 election.

    That’s a lot of grifting he has to do. Does GoFundMe even go that high?

      He’ll just appeal it until he dies.

          Sadly, that’s actually a legal reason for an appeal.

            It doesn’t. That is generally poor counsel; ineffective assistance of counsel as grounds for appeal is a much higher bar. He can’t meet it.

    Can anyone with experience/knowledge of these types of cases hazard a guess to how much the claimants might realistically receive and in what sort of timeframe?

    And if Rudy doesn’t pay up in his lifetime, could the money be seized from probate?

    Final one! If the claimants aren’t likely to see any money for a few years, are they at least able to secure loans against the ruling immediately?

    Maybe he can be America’s Mulch Mayor at Four Seasons Landscaping to earn some of that money.

    Consider for a minute the powers of persuasion that trump possesses.

    This was an objectively intelligent man who had cemented a legacy as an American hero and incorruptibility.
