Donald Trump sells off his private helicopter after losing the election
When Donald Trump’s tax returns surfaced in September, they proved what Palmer Report had long suspected: Trump has been broke and deeply in debt for years, and has merely been doing his best to juggle money around and make himself appear wealthy.
Now that Trump has lost the election, he’s just 73 days away from no longer being able to pilfer money from the federal government, and he’s about to need a whole lot of money for his legal defense in the criminal cases he’s about to face. It looks like he’s already decided to start trying to raise cash – even while tacitly acknowledging that he’s lost.
As it turns out, just six hours after Donald Trump was declared the loser of the election, TMZ says that he put one of his private helicopters up for sale. It’s not just that Trump needs the money; once he’s no longer president he won’t be allowed to use his helipad at Mar-a-Lago anyway.
