Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : When the 30-day deadline hit, however, the New York appeals court stepped in and lowered the bond to $175 million, giving Trump an additional 10 days.
44% : (Trump himself was ordered to pay $454 million; the $464 million includes the disgorgement for his adult sons Don Jr. and Eric.)
41% : Trump had been given 30 days to post the bond for the full amount of the judgement while he appealed, as is required by state law, but his attorneys said he could not find an insurance company to underwrite that large of a bond.
32% : That prompted James to take steps to prepare to seize Trump's assets in the event Trump failed to post bond.
25% : Trump also posted a $91.6 million bond last month in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case while he appeals that verdict against him.
23% : In January, Judge Arthur Engoron fined Trump and his co-defendants, including his adult sons and his company, $464 million, finding they fraudulently inflated the value of the former president's assets to obtain better loan rates.
