For days, Donald Trump’s fury over the requirement to secure hundreds of millions of dollars in bond money by Monday has been bubbling behind the scenes and through a steady stream of social media posts.
Friday’s public barrage on his Truth Social platform, which included multiple all-caps posts, highlighted his persistent anger with the judge who handed down the $464 million judgment, the New York attorney general who brought the civil fraud case and Trump’s insistence that it’s all designed to derail his presidential campaign.
The posts, including one sent just before 2 a.m. Friday, contained a mix of invective and claims devoid of fact or evidence. (There is no evidence that the White House has played any role in the case brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, let alone ordered her to pursue her effort. Nor is there any evidence that Trump, as he claimed, has plans to use any of his own money for his presidential campaign.)
But also embedded in the posts was a reality that has pushed Trump’s company and personal finances to the brink with just two days remaining to land a solution.
I would imagine it would need to be before the end of business, so probably 5PM EDT.
I’m guessing thats not a cutoff, that he can still potentially pay it after. They can just start taking other action to acquire the money, which won’t be next-day.
My knowledge is solely based on lemmy comments but…
There’s a deadline if he wants to appeal. If he provides the money 1 minute after the deadline he can’t appeal.
After the deadline they’ll start collection actions and he will always be able to pay to avoid them taking assets, no deadline.
