In a shocking turn of events, it seems like banks are too scaredy-cat to lend some moolah to former President Donald Trump for his appeals bond. And why, you ask? Well, according to George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley, those banks might be trembling in their boots at the mere thought of crossing paths with Democratic Attorney General Letitia James. Talk about a spineless move!

It’s like these banks are running scared from James, who seems to be on a power trip, just itching to take down Trump. Turley went on “Fox and Friends” to share his disbelief, wondering why any New York business would want to stick around with the way things are going. And who can blame him? Nobody wants to be next in line for a public flogging from James.
This whole mess started when Judge Arthur Engoron slapped Trump with a $354 million bill, which his lawyers are calling a mission impossible to pay up. Engoron also ordered the shutdown of Trump’s businesses and revocation of his licenses in a move that has conservatives scratching their heads in disbelief at the liberal overreach.
Letitia James seems to have a personal vendetta against Trump, labeling him an “illegitimate president” and making it her life’s mission to bring him down. This selective prosecution tactic is a dangerous game to play and goes against the very core of the rule of law. But who needs fairness and justice when you’ve got an agenda to push, right?
It’s truly a sad state of affairs when a former president can’t even catch a break to fight what he believes is an unjust ruling without getting slapped with a hefty price tag. Let’s hope some brave bank out there will step up and show some backbone in this David vs. Goliath showdown.
