Donald Trump reportedly used a bail bondsman after being arrested at Fulton County Jail in Atlanta, Georgia, on Thursday, paying $20,000 of his bond set at $200,000 and taking out a loan for the rest of it.

He sold Mar-a-Lago. apparently he’s scraping together his money to leave the country.
Saw that going around. It has been debunked though.
He didn’t sell it to Don Jr?

The Zillow listing was done in error apparently. Zillow came out and said it was not real.
He didn’t sell it. He transferred it to his son as a “sale”, probably to protect his assets from seizure
