Eric Trump, who was fined close to $4m by Judge Arthur Engoron in the same case, was asked how he thought the court had arrived at the fine. But that contradicted Trump’s lawyers who have said a surety that would protect Trump’s assets from seizure while he appeals the judgment was “impossible” to obtain.Īs soon as Tuesday morning, the New York attorney general, Letitia James, could begin to seize Trump’s assets, including his bank accounts and property. On Friday, Donald Trump said he has nearly $500m in cash and suggested he could afford bond in the New York case, which resulted in the former president, his company and some of its executives all being found liable for fraudulent business practices. He told host Maria Bartiromo: “A $10m bond is a large bond. Top executives of large insurance companies had never seen anything of this size.”

“Every single person, when I came to them saying, ‘Hey, can I get a half-billion-dollar bond?’ They were laughing. “No one’s ever seen a bond this size,” Eric Trump said.
