A New York appeals court on Monday agreed to hold off collection of former President Donald Trump’s $454 million civil fraud judgment — if he puts up $175 million within 10 days.

If he does, it will stop the clock on collection and prevent the state from seizing his assets while he appeals.

Delay. Delay. Delay.

    Those definitions don’t mean anything here. Your explanation of how that would benefit him doesn’t make sense.

    transfer funds from his personal holdings to his political campaign

    That’s not what Trump has ever wanted to do, nor would it help him. Why would selling things and self funding his campaign affect the judgement against him? If anything, he wants to do the opposite.

    If you owe a fine, would you give away your possessions? How would that help? It doesn’t make sense.
