From the article:
I will now pay it in full with five-cent pieces. Our wonderful U.S. nickel. Thomas Jefferson on one side. We love Thomas Jefferson, don't we, folks? I hope Letitia James loves him too, because she's going to be seeing $175 million worth of him.
I damn near peed my pants laughing at that one!

I know it’s the Bee, but it would be freaking epic!

At first I thought it was real! I am such a schmuck.

That would require 3.5 billion nickles if I calculated correctly. But what a sight that would make.

One guy on Quora tried to figure out how many dump trucks would be needed to carry $1B in nickles.

“the number of dump trucks ... around 900,000. This is all assuming that the trucks can hold the weight of 21,000 nickels, which is 105,000kg (231,000lbs).”

If he were right it would require about 157,500 dump truck loads for $175M in nickles if I did that right. Nerd exercise for the day.

No offense to the BB, but pennies would be more fun though as it would take 17.5 trillion of them!

And it’s beautiful. Yuge. He’ll have a big beautiful railcar or three loaded with nickels. Yuge railcars. Beautiful nickels ... and they are beautiful ... nice and shiny.

And I didn’t read the “article” before posting that. Looks like I have about the same sense of “Trumpspeak” as The Bee.

And of course he needs a receipt with an accurate count. Assuming 2 second per nickel, it would take over 200 years to generate an accurate count.😈

I realize this is satire, but Trump should pay this extortion in PESOs (since they reap the benefits of our corrupt government), Chinese Yuan (since they own the current resident and all those who prop up the feeble bastard), or some obscure banana repbulic (since that's what we have become with these inept communists running amok)!

He should pay it in $2 dollar bills. Letitia James is so stupid she probably doesn’t know they exist.

The last line was the best!

Trump was indicted once again, this time for failing to "fall into financial ruin".

Should be dimes...

...as there's not a dimes worth of difference from what these cretins are doing...compared with any other of history's tyrannical regimes.

A roll of nickels is $2.00. If a roll weighs around 5 Oz, that would be just about 1.1 million pounds. At 75,000 pounds per semi it would take only about 15 to 20 loads if you count pallets.

All rough math with assumptions.

Before checking the source I wondered, Is there that many nickel in circulation?

I watched PDJT at the press conference at the end of his court hearing today. At the end press conference some reporter asked him how he was going to pay (securities, bonds, cash). As he walked away from the podium, he blurted back to the reporter, “NICKELS”!

I laughed my a$$ off!

Turns out the Bee caught that too!
