My priority is for Carroll to get the money she has been awarded. I guess you don't care if she does.

Not at all. Where this case is concerned, the *only* priority is that Carroll is compensated

"It was not clear from court records what collateral Trump presented to obtain the bond from Chubb."

Chubb is NOT a Kremlin-controlled firm. Chubb is the world's largest publicly traded property and casualty insurer

+1. When it comes to Trump, assume the worst. He no longer deserves the benefit of the doubt

Soon after Trump entered the WH, there was a very high death and disappearance rate of CIA assets.

Since it is DT and the ceo is connected to DT, I would look hard at how the bond is backed.
