Trump says he will post $175 million bond within 10 days
Donald Trump praised the appeals court ruling, which has given him 10 more days to post his bond as the former president appeals the civil fraud judgment against him and cut the amount necessary to $175 million.
Outside of his separate hush money case hearing in New York, Trump remarked on the ruling, saying he "greatly" respects the decision of the court.
The former president said he would post the $175 million "in cash or bonds or security or whatever is necessary very quickly within the 10 days."
As he left the courtroom at the conclusion of Monday's hearing Trump added, "It will be my honor to post." Trump then said he will use cash for collateral, when questioned by a reporter.
Trump also attacked Judge Arthur Engoron, who ruled that the former president needed to pay the full $464 million judgment, in the civil fraud case.
"What he's done is such a disservice and should never be allowed to happen. New York state is being battered by his decision," Trump said. He added, "Judge Engoron is a disgrace to this country."
