Following an appeals court decision that reduced the $454 million bond imposed in his New York fraud case, former President Donald Trump posted the lower amount — much to the dismay of his detractors, of course.
The lower $175 million bond payment means that New York Attorney General Letitia James will now not be permitted to fulfill the leftist fantasy of confiscating Trump’s property in order to sell it off and enrich the state government.
Trump’s legal team had argued that a bond in the original amount of nearly half a billion dollars simply wasn’t obtainable, Axios noted.
Trump wasted little time in celebrating the decision and the payment in a Truth Social post.
“Thank you to professor Jonathan Turley for exposing the horrendous decision made by a corrupt New York State Judge, Arthur Engoron, on the “I will get Trump” worst in the Nation A.G., Letitia James, unfair case against me,” Trump wrote. “I just posted a $175,000,000 Bond just for the right to Appeal this travesty of a case, which I won at the Appellate Division, but this Judge refuses to accept- A FIRST.”
“He is a whacked out nut job who just made up a number out of thin air, just like he did on the value of Mar-a-Lago. Businesses won’t enter New York because of this decision, and many are fleeing.
