Eric Trump railed against the massive half-billion dollar bond his father must secure in the New York civil fraud case by Monday’s deadline or risk having his Empire State assets seized by state Attorney Gen. Letitia James.
“This is legal lawfare,” he said during a discussion with Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo on Sunday. “This entire case is crazy. You had a runaway judge who just ruled against something that the Appellate Division has already knocked out 85% of this case, but that’s not the point…”
“They just want to hurt a man, and they’re sending tremors across this country.”
The Trump Organization executive vice president weighed in on the subject on “Sunday Morning Futures” as news of the looming deadline dominated headlines.
Last week, the former president and current GOP frontrunner said he has amassed nearly $500 million in cash, indicating he has enough money to post bond as required by a judge.
His legal team, meanwhile, have appealed and requested a stay on his $454 million civil fraud judgment.
