Trump posts $175M bond to keep N.Y. authorities from seizing property

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

33% : Trump lawyers recently argued to an appeals court that he was unable to post a bond of over $450 million, roughly the size of the judgment against him with interest included, mainly because about 30 surety companies he consulted with would not accept his real estate as collateral, only liquid assets.
32% : After a 10-week trial late last year, New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron found Trump, the Trump Organization, Trump's adult sons and two former executives liable in February for using illegal tactics to knowingly cheat business partners to increase the company's profits and savings.
32% : If he does not win his appeal, Trump will still owe more than $450 million from a civil court judgment after James won the fraud case against him, alleging he deceived lenders and insurance companies by inflating his net worth by up to $2.2 billion annually from 2011 to 2021.
22% : Trump has denied any wrongdoing in the civil fraud case and other pending cases against him.
