Former President Donald Trump undercutted his own lawyers’ claims by posting on Truth Social that he almost has the $500 million in cash to post bond. Cenk Uygur, Trae Crowder and Jordan Uhl discuss on The Young Turks.
“Former President Donald Trump claimed early Friday that he has “almost” $500 million in cash, undercutting his lawyers’ claims that he would not be able to comply with the $464 million judgment against him and his co-defendants in the civil fraud case brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James.
“Through hard work, talent, and luck, I currently have almost five hundred million dollars in cash, a substantial amount of which I intended to use in my campaign for president,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social in all caps. “The often overturned political hack judge on the rigged and corrupt A.G. case, where I have done nothing wrong, knew this, wanted to take it away from me, and that’s where and why he came up with the shocking number which, coupled with his crazy interest demand, is approximately $454,000,000.””
