Donald Trump spent Friday morning blasting out capitalized screeds on his social media platform, including the claim that he has nearly $500 million IN CASH.

According to legal experts, that was not a wise move.

THROUGH HARD WORK, TALENT, AND LUCK, I CURRENTLY HAVE ALMOST FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS IN CASH, A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF WHICH I INTENDED TO USE IN MY CAMPAIGN FOR PRESIDENT, Trump wrote on Truth Social .

The GOPs presumptive presidential nominee continued with a conspiracy theory about the New York judge who oversaw his civil fraud case, claiming that Judge Arthur Engoron knew how much cash Trump had and WANTED TO TAKE IT AWAY FROM ME.

Trump was ordered by Engoron last month to pay more than $350 million in damages, plus interest, for decades of fraudulent business practices. The former president is appealing the verdict and must post bond by Monday, or face the seizure of his assets by New York Attorney General Letitia James.

Trumps team claimed in a court filing this week that obtaining an appeal bond for $464 million is a practical impossibility under the circumstances presented. (That figure includes $454 million for Trump himself and millions more to cover the disgorgement for his sons.) The brief said that he had been rejected by 30 bond companies, which would only accept cash or cash equivalents as collateral.

Nick Akerman, a legal analyst and former Watergate prosecutor, appeared Friday morning on CNN to discuss the developments.

That is the dumbest thing he could have possibly done, to put that on Truth Social , because that is a direct admission by him that he has the money, Akerman said, in a clip flagged by Mediaite .

Keep in mind, even with this operating money or cash that he supposedly has, if he doesnt pony up and put up a bond, Letitia James is going to be able to go in and basically put restraining orders on all of his bank accounts, he continued.

Everything that relates to him and all of that money is going to be tied up and frozen. So if hes really got that money, hes got to put it up.
