The bond Trump is posting with the court now is essentially a placeholder, meant to guarantee payment if the judgment is upheld. If that happens, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee will have to pay the state the whole sum, which grows with daily interest.
If Trump wins, he won’t have to pay the state anything and will get back the money he has put up now.
There’s rules for the rich, and rules for the rest of us…
Should have been seizing his property last week.
The only thing this does is prove (once again) that the justice system has different rules for rich people (or even people who play shell games with their money to grossly inflate their assets).
No money even changed hands. The insurance company basically wrote a promissory note that they pinky promise swear to pay if the appeal fails and trump doesn’t pay.
This fucking guy will NEVER suffer a single consequence and we’ll all suffer for it.
DENY THAT FUCKING APPEAL! STEAL THE MONEY BACK!
