Asked what his collateral on his bond would be, Trump in epic fashion turned to cameras and simply replied, ‘Cash.’
Former President Donald Trump spoke to reporters Monday outside a New York City courtroom discussing recent developments in his ongoing kangaroo court show trials.
Trump didn’t mince words blasting his mounting legal entanglements as “election interference” by his opponents in the Democrat party intended to hamstring his re-election bid.
Asked what his collateral on his bond would be, after an appeals court ruled the bond could be lowered from $464 million to $175 million, Trump turned to cameras and simply replied, “Cash.”
Check out highlights from the former president’s impromptu press conference below:
Trump later savaged Judge Arthur Engoron, who’s in charge of his New York civil fraud case, on Truth Social, pointing out it’s the “5th time in this case that he has been overturned, a record.”
Judge Engoron has refused to obey the decision of the Appellate Division relative to the Statute of Limitations. This is a confrontation between a Judge and those that rule above him – A very bad situation in which to place New York State and the Rule of Law! Engoron has disrespected the Appellate Division and its very clear and precise ruling. He should be made to do so, and at the same time, release the GAG ORDER. This is the 5th time in this case that he has been overturned, a record. His credibility, and that of Letitia James, has been shattered. We will abide by the decision of the Appellate Division, and post either a bond, equivalent securities, or cash. This also shows how ridiculous and outrageous Engoron’s original decision was at $450 Million. I DID NOTHING WRONG, AND NEW YORK SHOULD NEVER BE PUT IN A POSITION LIKE THIS AGAIN. BUSINESSES ARE FLEEING, VIOLENT CRIME IS FLOURISHING, AND IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THIS BE RESOLVED IN ITS TOTALITY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU!
Trump was in New York Monday attempting to get his Stormy Daniels hush money case dismissed, with lawyers citing “prosecutorial misconduct,” however a judge ruled the case will go to trial on April 15.
