Trump lied about value of business empire — and size of his Trump Tower penthouse, AG James says
Lies about size matter.
Former President Donald Trump and his children have lied about seemingly everything in the Trump Org empire — from the size of the patriarch’s luxury Manhattan penthouse to the value of properties around the globe — in order to score an array of financial benefits, New York Attorney General Letitia James charged in bombshell court papers.
The lies to banks, government agencies and other regulators were “part of a pattern to suggest that Mr. Trump’s net worth was higher than it otherwise would have appeared,” attorneys with James’s office wrote in the Manhattan Supreme Court petition filed late Tuesday.
The misleading missives helped Trump fraudulently obtain loans, tax deductions, insurance coverage and other economic perks, James charged.
One of the most egregious alleged examples of the family’s “misstated objective facts” could be found at the top of the twice-impeached former president’s Midtown Manhattan skyscraper.

But how can a liar prosecute lies while lying?
These lying attorneys are the worst
And still, he’s the overwhelming favorite for president. Much more since this week’s last public ‘speaking’ performance by the illegitimate White House occupant.
They gotta keep trying.
Yep. I love how she let’s Cuomo off the hook after mass murdering 5000 elderly people, but Trump takes a guess on the size of his penthouse and she acts like she caught Hitler in the bunker.
Neat trick, that.
The retarded ghettopotamus is talking out her Obama.
Loans are based on banks appraisal
Tax is based on cost and county assessment
Insurance is based on their valuation
What are they talking about?
Then 99% of Democrats are in really big trouble
Their hatred is coming to the forefront.
Mouth-breathing retards like Letitia “Ghettopotamus” James gonna retard.
Who cares. Really.
Yeah, any bank would do their own appraisal.
Trump may have been able to influence the bank’s own estimates, but it’s up to the bank to determine the value of the collateral being offered.
If Trump overstated actual revenues or profits that would be fraud. But I’m sure any statements he gave banks were audited.
Trump saying, I think this property is worth $100 million, wouldn’t go very far, unless Trump can make a reasonable case that similar properties have sold for comparable prices.
And if Trump can make that case, then it’s not fraud.
Wow! So she is talking out her butt then. This is unbelievable what this man has been going through, they just will not stop. Don’t democrat voters see this? Doesn’t it ring even slightly odd to them why Trump is being so incredibly harassed like this for the past 5 years?
“Lied” to who, and how is that Your Business???
If the banks were satisfied with his valuation how the hell is she able to step in and call it a lie?
And where is that criminal behavior? Are the banks pressing charges?
Trump needs to sue her for every penny she’s got
Yes…. Any bank extending loans without doing appraisals should be investigated.
Geez if that is a criminal act, you’d have to arrest every house flipper everywhere..I can say my house is worth 3 million dollars, prove me wrong!
Leads one to speculate what kind of system could possibly allow such a dearth of morality to become attorney general.
This is unbelievable what this man has been going through, they just will not stop. Don’t democrat voters see this? Doesn’t it ring even slightly odd to them why Trump is being so incredibly harassed like this for the past 5 years?
Meanwhile the “ big guy” and son are more than likely guilty of much more and nary a concern...
Letitia sure knows how size matters. She probably sleeps with a baseball bat. And not for protection
