Donald Trump still hasn’t posted bond in his New York civil fraud trial, but his lawyer Alina Habba wants you to know that it’s definitely not because they’re having trouble getting the massive amount together.
The former president was fined $354 million for committing real estate–related fraud in New York. In order to appeal the decision, Trump must post a bond of the full amount plus interest—which has already reached nearly $467 million, with interest adding $112,000 per day.
When asked Wednesday if Trump was any closer to posting bond, Habba had a very clear answer that raised no red flags.
“Yeah, no, unfortunately I can’t speak to that. That’s privileged, and I am the attorney, one of the attorneys on that case,” Habba told Fox News, stating the obvious.
She quickly pivoted to attacking the case altogether, calling the judgment “absurd” and expressing hope that an appeals court would overturn it.
March 25th is the deadline for this judgement. The judgement was made on Feb 16th, so that is basically 5 weeks plus a day or so to account for the weekend. Decision was made on a Friday, deadline is a Monday.
What happens on March 26th if there’s still no payment or bond?
New York will seize his properties in New York.
I would love it if NY seized his properties and turned them all into low-income housing.
Not that there’s anything wrong with low-income housing. It would just kill Trump to see his 🖐️ tremendous 👌 properties being inhabited by poors.
This is the best use of hand emojis I have ever seen. Outstanding!
I would love it too but my only concern is that they might legally still have to keep the trump name and the morons who vote for him would think Trump I’s doing that out of the goodness of his heart. I’ve read in the sale of some of his older properties they’ve had to keep the name and are currently trying to sue to change it.
Something fun I hope
The 26th is my B-day, so I’m wishing I get to see his shit seized that day.
