Subject: Re: Trump's $364 Million Dollar Civil Fraud Judgm
i dont think trump will get a 9% appeal bond rate.
this is not transacted by the government, but by a 3rd-party that sets the rate. estimates seem to be in the 20% rate, but these do not seem to be coming from financial institutions that actually want to do business with trump. (i.e., the risk of having to sue\jail him to get the rest is exactly what public courts and prior lenders want to avoid)

but there is hope! Axos bank CEO is a friend of MAGA , has made recent loans to Trump Org., and cares not much regarding public shareholder governance.

if you ask me, trump should just get it from musk or putin, who are both 2-3 orders of magnitude wealthier than trump. (and by trump logic, that much smarter and better looking) after all, what's a 2X premium for laundered money evading sanctions?

(and there is always that stench of the DWAC IPO fleecing someone may lend against)
