WOW response from E. Jean Carroll after Trump posted bond

"Though the illustrious Robbie Kaplan is strong enough to yank a golden toilet out of the floor at Trump Tower and toss it through the window, this bond saves Robbie the trouble of showing up with US Marshals on Monday to do so."

The former president obtained an appeals bond from the Virginia-based Federal Insurance Company totaling $91,630,000 to cover the $83 million judgment in the case plus interest, according to a court filing Friday morning.

That money will eventually go to E Jean and the insurance company will be left holding the bag.

...by applying a lien on assets worth at least the $91+ million.
Insurance companies know how to manage risk. It's what they do.

Given what we know about insurance companies, they aren't losing this one.

Chubb isn't taking the beating on this.

Maybe someone better versed in law will correct me if I am wrong. But I read he has to put up the moohla if he wants to appeal any of these cases. IOW, more delays

Maybe they liened assets, or maybe Vlad or Chainsaw guaranteed the money? Or they own a significant part of the insurer? Or threatened them? Who knows what happens behind criminality?

As long as Chubb has assets to support the bond, they probably don't care, as long as it's legal.
There's too much risk to their business & reputation if they get involved in extralegal chicanery.
But, how the cash is underwritten is something we likely will never know.

Court records filed Friday show that the bond was guaranteed by the Chubb Corporation, an insurance group. In 2018, Trump appointed Chubb’s CEO Evan Greenberg to a White House advisory committee for trade policy and negotiations.

“Insurance company Chubb underwrote the bond for Trump, which the former president signed on Tuesday. Under the terms of the bond, Chubb will only secure the appeal of the $83.3 million judgment, not any future appeals.”

Hoping this works:
