A fat man born with a silver spoon in his mouth has been caught lying, cheating, deceiving, committing fraud, using falsified documents, engaging in slander etc and has to pay some fines. Things he appears to have been doing most of his life. Whoop dee doo. If most of us had done anything remotely like that my bet is that we would be in Gaol.

Trump has been making a living off borrowing other people's money to buy stuff and when his businesses go broke not repaying the money and declaring bankruptcy (at least 6 times). If the investment makes a profit then he keeps the winnings. It a "heads I win, tails you lose" type thing.

I find it odd that you take his loss personally. He claims to have $10 billion so all of the fines etc are only about 5% of his claimed net worth, assuming he isn't lying about that as well. Worse still he appears to be trying to get other people to pay both his legal costs and fines. Its completely outrageous.

Forbs has Criminal Defendant Trump's net worth at $2.6 billion so the 1/2 $billion he is up for is a decent chunk of that.

For a so called real estate developer he seem to make a fair bit of his money grifting people and selling stupid crap. His true profession is a professional conman
