"They're trying to deprive him of his cash, they want to bankrupt him, they want to hurt him so badly," Eric Trump told Fox News in an interview.
Trump's son Eric, a co-defendant in the fraud case, accused Attorney General Letitia James on Sunday of trying to bankrupt his father with the judgment.
Eric's complaint came days after news that James's office had registered the massive fraud judgment with the Westchester County, New York, county clerk's office.
Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump have run their father's company since he was elected president in 2016.
Losers in New York civil cases must routinely post an appeal bond or be liable for the judgments against them as they appeal a verdict.
