You’re probably wondering how Trump has any lawyers left after so many of them have turned on him to cut deals for themselves, but there’s always someone who’s ready to believe they’re different, they’re special, and the fame is worth the hit.

He paid the fine. And this is how you know things are different this time. Donald Trump is being held accountable by someone, he can’t get out of it, his usual tricks aren’t working, and so he is left to pay the court fine like everyone else.
