Court agrees to block collection of Trump's $454 million civil fraud judgment if he puts up $175M

A New York appeals court on Monday agreed to hold off collection of former President Donald Trump’s $454 million civil fraud judgment — if he puts up $175 million within 10 days.

If he does, it will stop the clock on collection and prevent the state from seizing his assets while he appeals.

Delay. Delay. Delay.

If he has $500/M on hand, this shouldn't be allowed.

If he DOESN'T have $500/M on hand... This still shouldn't be allowed.

I also predict he will COMPLAIN about this gift on truth social, saying they should have reduced it to Zero. Spitting right in the faces of those judges that just gave him the gift.

Right before they lower it, in 10 days time, to $50M which will be due in an extra 30 days.

Honestly, considering he stated on Truth Social that he had 500M on hand, which he was absolutely NOT going to pay his bond with, I would've denied his appeal on that alone.
