Trump Posts $175 Million Bond Paving Way for Appeal of NY Civil Fraud Ruling

“Former President Trump on Monday posted a $175 million bond in his New York civil fraud case, preventing the state from seizing his assets while he appeals.

A New York appellate court had given the former president 10 days to put up the money after a panel of judges agreed last month to slash the amount needed to stop the clock on enforcement.

If Trump wins, he won’t have to pay thep state anything and will get back the money he has put up now.

Until the appeals court intervened to lower the required bond, New York Attorney General Letitia James had been poised to initiate efforts to collect the judgment, possibly by seizing some of Trump’s marquee properties. James, a Democrat, brought the lawsuit on the state’s behalf.”

Let’s break this down. Judge Arthur Engoron was extremely biased to begin with.

According to Law Professor Jonathan Turley,

“Engoron has given more than $5,000 to Democrats over the past 25 years, the Daily Wire first reported. The money has primarily gone to local committees; his most recent donation from 2018 went to Manhattan Democrats.

The money has also gone to Democrat candidates such as former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, former Gov. David Paterson and other state lawmakers, the publication reported.”

And then, there is Democrat New York Attorney General Letitia James, who ran on the promise to “GET TRUMP”.

So, Trump had about as much chance to win in Judge Engoron’s court as someone appearing in a Russian political trial.

The original ruling was for him to pay $454 million dollars which he would have to pay in full in order to appeal the original ruling for somehow violating a law that had not been used a long long time. 

He was charged with overvaluing his real estate properties, a practice which is used in every real estate deal in america.

The Democrats dug it up in order to get the presumptive Republican Candidate for President out of the way.

In fact, District Attorney James was salivating at the prospect of being able to grab Trump Tower and other properties if Trump failed to pay the outrageous ruling.

All of these legal actions currently being taken against former President Trump have backfared spectacularly on the Democrats. 

They have sent a message to average Americans that the Democrats in power are no better than the Russians. They will do anything they have to do in order to get Trump out of the way.

If all this Political Lawfare is allowed to continue, it will be used as a political weapon.

And it won’t just be used to get politicians out of the way.

It will also be used to keep average American citizens in line from speaking out against the Far Left Democrats who plan on remaining in power in perpetuity.

Former President Trump is being used as a object lesson.

Is the $254.8 Million Fine Levied by Judge Engoran Against Trump Unconstitutional?

“Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.” – Amendment VIII, U.S. Constitution

“New York Attorney General Letitia James said she is prepared to seize Donald Trump’s assets — including 40 Wall Street — if he does not have the cash to cover the $355 million judgment against him in the civil fraud case that ended last week.

James made the comments in an interview with ABC News on Tuesday.

“If he does not have funds to pay off the judgment, then we will seek judgment enforcement mechanisms in court, and we will ask the judge to seize his assets,” James told ABC News.

Judge Arthur Engoron on Friday imposed a $354.8 million fine — plus roughly $100 million in pre-judgment interest — against Trump for duping banks and lenders with financial statements that inflated his wealth. Trump is appealing the ruling.” (Courtesy Newsmax.com)

Would you call $354.8 million an “excessive fine”?

I sure would.

What we have is a judge who was already biased against the person being on trial and a State Attorney General who ran on getting the person on trial for the crime of actually having been elected president and being on the cusp of a second term.

The Democrats created all this Political Lawfare which we have been watching transpire since the beginning of Trump’s first term as president when they commissioned the creation of the Steele Dossier during the 2016 Presidential Campaign, which would show manufactured “Russian Collusion” by Candidate Donald J Trump.

After American elected him President, the Democrat Congress had the gall to appoint a Special Counsel to investigate the fictional Russian Collusion while slandering Trump at the same time in an effort to set him up for impeachment.

There were several attempts at impeachment during the Trump Presidency and even one after he was out of office.

They all failed.

Now, as we hopefully near the end of the worst presidency in the history of America, Trump stands on the cusp of becoming America’s president again and the Democrats are throwing all sense of decorum, fairness, and constitutionality out the window.

The use of our Department of Justice and our legal system in order to deny Americans the right to vote for whomever they please is both fascist and Marxist at the same time.

And, as you can see by Democrat donor Judge Arthur Engoron’s egregious exorbitant “excessive fine” against Trump, the Political Lawfare being waged against our returning president is clearly unconstitutional and will have a deleterious effect on  our country, the Democrat-run state of New York, and New York City itself.

Why should Republican businessmen move their corporations to New York if they are going to be attacked by Democrats waging Political Lawfare in order to fill their coffers?

I believe that this case will be thrown out on appeal and I also believe that Trump’s lead in all the polls will continue to skyrocket.

Americans see exactly what is going on.

They have had their fill of Democrat Political Chicanery.

They want more money back in their own pockets again.

They want America to be great again.

Americans want Trump.
