Because honestly, the key to Making America Great Again starts with putting...

All of the loans were paid back without issue and the statement of financial condition was factual and accurate. Additionally, the statute being used as the predicate for the case is a consumer fraud statute, intended to protect borrowers from predatory lenders. In the four corners of this case, Trump is the borrower, and the banks were the lenders. New York is flipping the statute to claim...
