Trump.
Who or what was damaged to the tune of $300,000,000?
It wasn’t a criminal trial and he did defend himself. Not well enough apparently.
HOW are property taxes done in NY??
IF based upon the value of the buildings—— & Trump was taxed on HIS evaluation of HIS properties, and the TRIAL says he OVERSTATED those values-—
THEN, TRUMP SHOULD BE OWED A VAST AMOUNT OF MONEY IN THE DIFFERENCE.
NEW YORK BETTER PAY UP.
Anyone in NY who ever fudged the numbers on a mortgage application and later turned over the property for a tidy profit needs to understand that this could be them. If the state needs some extra cash for, say, migrant benefits, I would suggest a bounty system be set up. :-)
A big win would be you doing an opus out of here. Joe needs help over at his campaign headquarters.
Start a Draft Meatball For President.
Any business would be wise to exit NY State.
How many people on this site are SCREAMING about the evils of Russia, tell me again how GREAT the United States is compared to Russia SPIT!!! This government is NO BETTER than Putin’s government!!!!!
“Who or what was damaged to the tune of $300,000,000?”
Hillary Clinton.
Because the law mandated a “bench trial” decided by a judge.
“Getting tired of winning yet?”
Actually we are winning. The abjact corruption of our government and judiciary is on full display. This ruling will be overturned on appeal.
Trump’s favorable jumped up today, so it is win-win.
Amen!
“President Trump will appeal the ruling and seek a stay to halt enforcement next week.”
I believe he has to post a 70 million dollar bond first in order to appeal.
This was Manhattan; a jury trial there would reflect a population that voted only 14.5 percent for Trump in 2020. Quite frankly, I would be pleased if most of NYC pulled out of the union and took NE New Jersey with them.
My post was in response to a constitutional argument against fines of this sort.
There was a trial, fines like this are not new, wrongdoing was found to the court’s satisfaction, there will be appeals.
Putin treats Christians WAY BETTER than Xiden regime.
The NY AG’s office requested a bench trial. Habba could have requested a trial by jury, but she failed to respond to the state’s motion.
“Former President Trump has repeatedly complained about the lack of a jury in his New York civil fraud trial, but his own legal team appears to have failed to request one.
Why it matters: Trump has claimed it’s “unfair” that the judge in the case opted for a bench trial, without a jury. But the court docket shows that while Attorney General Letitia James filed a document requesting a bench trial, Trump’s lawyers never filed any corresponding document requesting a jury.
If Trump’s team had requested a jury, then Judge Arthur Engoron would have had to consider both sides’ requests.
