New York Attorney General Letitia James on Wednesday sued former President Donald Trump, the Trump Organization, three of his adult children, and others for allegedly widespread fraud involving false financial statements related to the company.

The lawsuit seeks at least $250 million in damages.

Trump should countersue and collect for frivolous lawsuits.

snooze. What else is new?

These leftists are so unoriginal.

[Aria]

The power of the state’s unlimited funds.

This is the same nonsense over valuations of real estate.

One person says a building is worth X and another says it is worth Y.

[JerseyDvl]

Not Legal... just Civil. Very, very weak stuff that will only further lionize the man.

[going hot]

After 7 years of investigation and anal probes, this is what they got?

He said she said regards what RE is valued at?

[xzins]

Such a ridiculous claim. Something you’re selling is worth what you say it is. If I don’t think so, I don’t have to buy it.

If I say my 50 year old mustang goes on the market at 50K, is that fraud? Hardly. DON’T buy it.

Dude, if it’s mint I’d love to look at it...:)

[struggle]

Glad to finally get some justice on these horrific accounting errors.

Obviously there is no criminal charge “Tish” could invent, so she is going with the Tax Department Ham Sandwich. Actually, there is no way they could ever do a criminal indictment as they can not allow discovery.. As it is, this will be thrown out of court and yes, he and the Family should counter-sue.

[Osage Orange]

Damn that’s an old ass horse.......

[rdl6989]

This will go nowhere. It’s an obvious attempt to meddle in the midterms.

[deport]

Trump may rue the day he decided to get in
the Presidential arena as a candidate.

[dfwgator]

I think he knew the risks, he did it anyway.

[TexasGator]

“Not Legal... just Civil.”

Civil IS legal.

[Mr. K]

She’s suing because she could not prove any actual crimes.

[bosco24]

This is crazy stuff. When you get a loan backed by property, the loaner determines the value of property not the loanee. This makes no sense.

[Aria]

I know someone who went to the “gray hotel” for bank fraud and in his case he really did the deed. I’m thinking the witch can’t prove anything against DJT so she’s trying this.

[deport]

I think he knew but all I’m saying he may rue
the day he made that decision even knowing.
