Donald Trump has no idea how to post bond in the fraud trialā€”and heā€™s absolutely losing it.

In just shy of a week, Donald Trumpā€™s $454 million judgment from his New York bank fraud trial will become collectible, either by way of liquid cash or financial assetsā€”and it has officially sent Trump into meltdown mode.

The notoriously sleep-deprived GOP presidential nominee spent the better part of Monday night shouting into the void about the massive, half-billion-dollar judgment and his apparentĀ inability to pay it off, bemoaning being required to follow the law before being allowed to appeal the case.

ā€œI would be forced to mortgage or sell Great Assets, perhaps at Fire Sale prices, and if and when I win the Appeal, they would be gone. Does that make sense? WITCH HUNT. ELECTION INTERFERENCE!ā€ Trump posted Tuesday morning.

ā€œI shouldnā€™t have to put up any money, being forced by the Corrupt Judge and AG, until the end of the appeal. Thatā€™s the way system works!ā€ he added, forgetting that heā€™s being held to the same standards as every private citizen.

    Soā€¦ What happens when it turns out heā€™s underwater on all his properties, and they sell for less than he owes on them?

      He defaults on the loans. If he owns a building, has a $500 M loan on it, and it gets sold via this process, he gets no money, unless the sale goes over what he owes for the judgement. But the loan is still in place and he still owes the $500 M.
