He was probably counting on it. That way he doesn't have to make the call and his hands are "clean". He is up for re-election.
that's what i figured, too, washing his hands of it. If it is reversed he can say he tried, if affirmed 'he was right all along'

Many years ago a local news agency interviewed Kid Rock (he lives here). Among many questions they asked if he'd ever run for political office as many entertainers have, perhaps even President.
Kid Rock laughed and said "Never for President... " then he got quite for a moment and said "... maybe Minister of Common Sense, we definitely need that..."
I'd say that would be Trumps first cabinet appointment, a Common Sense Czar.

Welcome back C (justjoe). Perhaps you'll get a chuckle from this:

Former President Donald Trump stands to get a windfall of $3.5 billion now that shareholders of Digital World Acquisition Corp. have approved a merger with his Truth Social on Friday.
The potential multibillion dollar infusion comes as New York Attorney General Letitia James is moving to seize Trump’s assets to pay a $464 million bond in his New York civil fraud case.
The long-delayed merger came after the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved it last month, and means that Trump’s company Trump Media & Technology Group will trade on the stock market under the stock ticker “DJT” as early as next week.
Trump will own nearly 79 million shares in the newly-merged company, which is currently around $41 per share.
The former president will not be able to cash in his stake until six months after the merger, but Talking Point USA’s Founder and CEO Charlie Kirk posted on X that Trump could seek a waiver to do so in order to pay the bond so he can appeal the fraud case.
if I recall, they also spearheaded the drive to change the definition of vaccine after the jabs were announced and it became obvious that the COVID Vaccine was being used improperly

Truth Social CEO is Devin Nunes. Remember him ?
The establishment media have air-balled yet another big story with regard to former President Donald Trump as the merger between a SPAC and the company behind Trump’s Truth Social social media platform was approved Friday despite nonstop predictions the past couple years this would not happen.
On Friday morning, shareholders of Digital World Acquisition Corporation (DWAC)—which is a SPAC, or special purpose acquisition company—approved a long-delayed merger with Trump Media & Technology Group—unlocking significant resources for the expansion of Truth Social and also perhaps providing Trump himself with a major payday worth several billion dollars.
According to The Hill newspaper, Trump stands to make about $3.5 billion from the 79 million shares he holds—though he is under agreements and provisions that prevent him from immediately accessing the cash.
Nonetheless, the massive windfall for Trump at a time when New York’s Attorney General Letitia James comes after him for hundreds of millions of dollars is welcome news for the former president while the clock is ticking for him to find a solution to post a $454 million bond so he can appeal a ruling in a lower court against him.
But the DWAC merger approval in and of itself is yet another in a long list of storylines that have turned out to be fake from the establishment media. Repeatedly, across several media outlets, predictions of a doomsday for Truth Social have played out for years.

Trump has also been in meetings with Elon Musk at Mar-A-Lago in the last couple of weeks.

Trump Bond Reduced to $175 Million as He Appeals NY Fine
Trump was initially ordered to pay nearly $545 million bond
Former president has 10 days to post the reduced bond
A New York appeals court agreed to slash millions off of the bond Donald Trump must post to cover a $454 million civil fraud verdict while he appeals it, reducing it to just $175 million after the real estate mogul claimed he’d have to sell properties at a loss to raise cash.
The ruling Monday comes on the day Trump faced a deadline to either pay the fine or post a bond for 120% of the judgment to put it on hold while he appeals. That would have amounted to nearly $545 million dollars. He has 10 days to post the bond, the court ruled.
