‘Mr. Wonderful’ slams Trump ruling: ‘You might as well find guilty every real estate developer on Earth’
American Wire ^ | February 17, 2024 | Chris Donaldson

Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron and New York Attorney General Letitia James may have scored a major hit on former President Donald J. Trump with the unprecedented $354 million penalty but they may have inadvertently inflicted grave damage on the entire real estate industry.

On Friday, leftists were jubilant when Engoron announced the crushing financial blow on Trump, a ruling that in the opinion of one notable business expert, Kevin O’Leary of the popular television show “Shark Tank” is “un-American” and if not reversed on appeal, could potentially lead to other real estate developers facing similar charges from political activist prosecutors.

An entrepreneur and investor who is known as Mr. Wonderful on the long-running business reality show, O’Leary blasted the ruling as “unjust,” “appalling” and “un-American,” three terms that seem to perfectly describe the abomination in Engoron’s courtroom.

“That fact that he was found guilty, you might as well find guilty every real estate developer on Earth,” O’Leary told the New York Post in an interview after the ruling came down.

Engoron also barred the Republican frontrunner, a titan in the New York real estate development industry, from assuming any position as director or officer in the Empire State for three years, which O’Leary “sees as detrimental not just to Trump, but also to the broader business landscape,” according to the outlet.

“I don’t understand where someone got hurt … What developer doesn’t ask for the highest price valued for any building they built?” O’Leary asked.

“It’s not healthy for the country,” O’Leary added. “I want this reviewed and appealed and turned over because it’s wrong for everybody that participates.”

“If this judgment sticks, every developer must be jailed. They must be found guilty. They must be put out of business. You can’t do this to one another. It’s not about Trump,” he said, adding. “It’s appalling. It’s unjust. I would go as far to say it’s un-American.”

But it may turn out to be a Pyrrhic victory for James, Engoron and the Trump haters with the unintended consequences leading to an exodus from the deep blue city, its corrupted system of justice, and the kangaroo courts in which there should no longer be any expectation of getting a fair trial.

Calling New York “a loser state,” O’Leary said, “We’re just stunned. You have no idea. The shock wave sent through the real estate industry. Insane.”

“This ‘decision’ is a Complete and Total SHAM. There were No Victims, No Damages, No Complaints,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Friday.

Trump also blasted the “corrupt” judge in a statement after the ruling which he will appeal.

“The Justice System in New York State, and America as a whole, is under assault by partisan, deluded, biased Judges and Prosecutors. Racist, Corrupt A.G. Tish James has been obsessed with ‘Getting Trump’ for years, and used Crooked New York State Judge Engoron to get an illegal, unAmerican judgment against me, my family, and my tremendous business. I helped New York City during its worst of times, and now, while it is overrun with Violent Biden Migrant Crime, the Radicals are doing all they can to kick me out…..,” Trump added in another of a series of scathing posts.

Parts were so obvious that a trial wasn’t necessary. Summary judgement.

The only thing JoeS likes more than a Soviet show trial is a Soviet summary judgement.

He doesn't even hide it.

JoeS stands for Joseph Stalin and Buck stands for Tim Buck (look it up).

Yes, but only one real estate developer is passionately hated by marxists, antifa, BLM, jihadis, fascists and democrats.

“Financing it with fraudulent numbers is. “

Sure, but it didn’t happen in Trump’s case. The judge merely made up numbers and proclaimed them to be true.
