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 people lie to me, I really prefer if they put some effort into it. I find a half-assed lie to be inexcusably insulting.

    The lie won’t bother me, but the implication that I’m stupid enough to belief anything will piss me off.

      There’s an old cartoon.

      Man and woman. Guy is wearing white tie and tails and a top hat; the wife is in a house dress.

      Woman “Don’t give me that going bowling with the guys from work crap!”
