The younger Trump told Maria Bartiromo that securing a bond for Donald Trump ahead of Monday’s deadline has been a challenge

LESS THAN A day before Donald Trump‘s deadline to post a $464 million bond or risk his assets getting seized by the New York State Attorney General’s Office, his children are going to the media to complain about the cash squeeze.

Trump’s younger son Eric Trump opined about the ordeal during an appearance on Sunday Morning Futures, saying that he was present during the negotiations with dozens of sureties to secure the bond, only for all of them to reject Trump.

“Every single person when I came to them saying, ‘Hey, can I get a half-billion dollar bond?’” the younger Trump brother told Fox host Maria Bartiromo, “Maria: they were laughing. They were laughing.”

    When EXACTLY is the deadline? There’s probably hundreds if not thousands of recent articles about it being today, but so far I’ve been unable to find a single one that mentions WHEN today! Is that part a secret? One of the great unknowables of the universe?

    We need a countdown to gloating o’clock, dammit! 😛

      According to CBS, an appeals court reduced the bond to 175 million and extended the deadline by 10 days
