HuffPost
The interest on the former president's civil fraud judgment adds about $112,000 a day to the millions of dollars he already owes New York.
Former President Donald Trump owes a lot of money currently, and a new website will help him and the rest of us keep track of the growing interest on his debts.
Donald Trump’s Debt: Live Counter is keeping a running total on how much Trump owes to New York after losing a civil fraud trial that showed he lied about his wealth.
The initial verdict ruled that Trump owed $355 million in penalties, but the total is now close to $454 million due to interest. Although he is appealing the ruling, the interest on the debt will continue to accrue at a rate of $112,000 a day until Trump pays up or the amount is changed.
According to the live counter, the former president now owes nearly $465 million as of Monday afternoon.
The website is the brainchild of Pennsylvania-based Democratic strategist Johnny Palmadessa. It also includes a Trump quiz and a chatbot that allows visitors to ask Trump questions that he’ll refuse to answer.
