Trump can't come up with his bond.

I assume that means he won't be able to appeal. I wonder how much cash the underwriters wanted access to that he couldn't provide? I doubt it is the whole amount, but don't know much about bonds.
His financial house of cards must be looking pretty ready to collapse about now, which could be fun.
This quote is particularly funny:
“Critical among these challenges is not just the inability and reluctance of the vast majority of sureties to underwrite a bond for this unprecedented sum, but, even more significantly, the unwillingness of every surety bond provider approached by Defendants to accept real estate as collateral,” Trump’s attorneys wrote.
They are basically admitting that the bond providers don't think his properties are worth anywhere near what he claims and are probably fully leveraged, which coincidentally is the whole basis of this lawsuit!
