This is their big play? It doesn't need to be one bond. I read that those companies have a $100 million limit on bonds. Trump needs to put up several bonds. Or just use his yuge pile of cash he says he has. Or hell, double down on the lies and lose his holdings.

He probably legitimately doesn't know that, and the phone calls probably only get to:

Who is this?

Iiiiiiiit's Errrrrric!

Pretty sure James also already made it known he can post some of his properties directly to the court as collateral, skipping a 3rd party bond agency, but sounds like he wouldn't be able to do that if he has liens against them all, which he probably does.
