Wikipedia has the estimate at $450 million, but whatever.
Yourself included, yet you continue to push certain stats as if they mean something, even after it's pointed out to you that they don't.
Given that this was no routine legal matter, I find it entirely plausible that he was heavily involved in it. That said, I'm not especially interested in this case beyond the bits I find amusing.
Really, you're going to lecture me on being intellectually honest? I'm pretty sure I've pointed out to you in the past that those "350 companies" aren't real, operating companies, and yet you still trotted out that line about him having operational control over them.

That doesn't mean you are accurate -
The case is about how the transaction was entered into their books.
The CFO said it was done without Trumps input
The attorney said it was done without Trumps input
Stormy Daniels didn't want the deal originally - because it didn't have Trumps signature
It's an accounting function - the payment was made on an invoice from his attorney and entered as a legal expense.

I seem to recall digging into the full list and the associated records the first time it came up and describing what many of the LLC’s appeared to be for. Most had names related to the particular deal that, along with news article, made it fairly obvious what they were. For example, he’d have something like 123Broadway LLC, and a google search would turn up the fact that 123 Broadway was owned by a non-Trump developer, along with a news article that they had once approached him about licensing his name for the building.
He owns several businesses, including a number of golf courses and other buildings. But it’s nowhere near “350.”

Scoop: Trump to dine with NFT buyers on day off from court
"I'd like to be campaigning," Trump told reporters Tuesday outside the courtroom where adult film actress Stormy Daniels testified in the case involving hush money she received after an alleged encounter with Trump.[But it seems there's one thing he prioritizes over campaigning.]
- Hours later, Trump flew home to Palm Beach, Fla., where this evening he's expected to join supporters who bought at least 47 Trump NFTs (at $99 each), according to copy of the dinner invitation reviewed by Axios.
Buyers who spent nearly $10,000 to get 100 NFTs also were invited to a "VIP" cocktail reception before the dinner. They're supposed to receive physical cards with pieces of the suit and the tie that Trump was wearing when he was arrested.
- The company selling Trump NFTs —non-fungible tokens — isn't connected to his campaign.

So Trump has sex with a prostitute? What's the big deal? Sorry I haven't been following this story but what exactly are the charges against Trump?

She wasn't a prostitute and no money was exchanged until he decided to stop the story from coming out 10 yrs later.

Daniels was a terrible witness for the prosecution, her testimony was not necessary to prove the charges, her credibility was destroyed during cross examination and the prosecution had to know this would happen. This seems more like an attempt to damage Trump than to get a conviction.

I agree she wasn't necessary to prove the case, the rest is up for debate. The defense opened themselves up for it by saying she was lying about the encounter taking place.

What do you mean by "they polled the jury"?
A sitting jury can't discuss the case with anyone, even amoungst themselves, until they go into deliberation.

When there is a concern that something the jury should not have heard reached the jury, they are asked by the judge if they are aware of it.
