Trump Can't Stop Whining Over Having To Pay $464 Million Bond In NY Fraud Case
HuffPost
"I would be forced to mortgage or sell Great Assets, perhaps at Fire Sale prices," Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.
Former President Donald Trump is seeking comfort on social media after he was ordered to pay $464 million to meet bond on the appeal of his civil fraud conviction.
“If I weren’t running for President, and leading by a lot, none of this LEGAL LAWFARE would be happening,” Trump posted on his social media website, Truth Social, Tuesday morning. “ELECTION INTERFERENCE! MAGA!!!”
Last month, New York Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron ordered Trump to pay more than $350 million plus interest in damages for engaging in decades of fraudulent business practices under the Trump Organization.
Trump has appealed the decision; to stop his assets from being seized, he must post a bond totaling the full amount owed.
Despite “countless hours negotiating with one of the largest insurance companies in the world … obtaining an appeal bond in the full amount … is not possible under the circumstances presented,” a Monday court filing from Trump’s legal team said.
