Former President Trump railed against his New York civil fraud case and those involved, calling it a “fabricated election interference con job” just hours after he posted a $175 million bond in the case.
In a lengthy post Monday night on Truth Social, Trump argued the judgment will harm New York and called for the disbarment of Judge Arthur Engoron and New York Attorney General Letitia James (D), who brought the suit against the former president, his business and former executives.
“I’ve just posted a 175 Million Dollar Bond with the sadly failing and very troubled State of New York, based on a Corrupt Judge and Attorney General who used a Statute that was never used for this before, where no Jury was allowed, my financial statements were conservative and had a 100% perfect caution/non-reliance clause, there were no victims (except me!), there was no crime or damage, there was only success and HAPPY BANKS,” he wrote.
