« If I sold assets, and then won the Appeal, the assets would be forever gone, » Trump wrote on social media.
Donald Trump fears he could lose his most prized assets « forever » if he has to come up with the money for a bond as he tries to appeal a $454 million civil fraud judgment against him.
Trump said on Thursday that he could lose his real estate empire for good if he’s forced to mortgage or sell it because of a judge’s order. On Truth Social, Trump called the judge, Arthur Engoron, « a true Trump Hater » who was forcing him to obtain a bond that « is not possible » given that underwriters are seeking cash and not property, where most of his wealth is.
« If I sold assets, and then won the Appeal, the assets would be forever gone, » Trump wrote. « Also, putting up money before an Appeal is VERY EXPENSIVE. When I win the Appeal, all of that money is gone, and I would have done nothing wrong. The Crooked Judge, who has already been overturned 4 times on this case (a record!), fully understands this.
