Former President Donald Trump asked the judge overseeing the civil fraud case to delay enforcing the $355 million judgment against him for one month.

In a letter to Judge Arthur Engoron, Trump’s attorneys accuse New York Attorney General Letitia James of an “unseemly rush” to enforce the judgment by submitting a proposal for the judge to sign just days after the ruling.

Trump has 30 days from when a judgment is entered to post bond and appeal.

Last week, the judge ordered Trump to pay $355 million plus interest and imposed a three-year ban from acting as an officer of a New York business.

Law and Order, you broke the law, the next step in that process is you pay the bill, with fines. This is how it works for the everyman this is how it works for you. If you can not pay, there could (should) be prison time for you.

No no no. In Republican world, Law and Order only applies to black and brown folks.

Let's be fair, they hate poor people of every colour

Not equally though! “There’s some very fine people…”
