Trump is back at his New York civil fraud trial as testimony nears end

It for us to the governors taking shots at you yesterday, yesterday. What is your reaction to the governor's thinking? Thank you very much everybody. And uh this is *** witch hunt. The likes of which nobody has ever seen. We put on *** case that is absolutely 100%. There's not *** judge in the country that wouldn't have given us *** total victory, but there's not *** judge in the country that would have even taken this case. This is *** witch hunt and it's *** very corrupt trial case. We won this case at the appellate division, most of it, we cover about 90% of the case. We won this case at the appellate division and this judge refuses to acknowledge the appellate division and he said very specifically, we're going forward because there's something wrong here. We won this case. Remember this? Just put it in your head. This case was won at the appellate division and the judge refuses to do what the appellate division demands. He do. Nobody's ever seen anything like this. When you win at the appellate division at your high court, the judge has to be bound by what their decision is what we won at the appellate division. Part of that victory was Ivanka was not having to put herself through this and they ruled that, but the bigger part of it was that about 90% because of statute of limitations, about 90% of the case disappears. So remember this, we want the case at the appellate division, the high court and this judge refuses to acknowledge that victory or that demand. And that's very serious. So we're going in now we have an expert witness, one of the uh great experts in the country and I hope you'll all be able to listen to him. But it will just be another day. If you look at, if you look at the case, uh we did nothing wrong. There were no victims. The bank loves us. The bank testified, they love us. We did absolutely nothing wrong. We never even defaulted. We never had *** default letter sent to us. The bank said we were *** perfect customer. The bank didn't even know why they were here and yet you have people being murdered outside all over the streets. They're being murdered this violent crime and this attorney general who's brave. She's *** lunatic. The attorney general sits here because she knows that she has *** judge and no matter all the evidence that judge, that judge is gonna rule in her favor, he ruled against me before the case even started the case hadn't started he knew nothing and he ruled against me. The other thing is this, he valued Mar *** lago in Palm Beach Florida because that was good for her case at *** value of $18 million. When in fact, it's worth anywhere from 50 to 100 times that amount. Nobody's ever seen anything like it. But just remember what I said at the beginning, we wanted the appellate division and this judge refuses to honor that victory or that decision or that demand. Thank you. What do you want? Can you explain that?

NEW YORK —

Former President Donald Trump returned to his civil business fraud trial as a spectator Thursday, after a month of assailing the proceedings from afar.

With testimony winding down after more than two months, the Republican 2024 presidential front-runner showed up to watch an accounting professor testify about financial topics important to the case.

Trump himself is scheduled to take the stand Monday, for a second time.

Even while campaigning to reclaim the presidency and fighting four criminal cases, Trump is devoting a lot of attention to the New York lawsuit. He바카라 게임 웹사이트�s been a frustrated onlooker, a confrontational witness and a heated commentator outside the courtroom door.

바카라 게임 웹사이트�This is a witch hunt, and it바카라 게임 웹사이트�s a very corrupt trial,바카라 게임 웹사이트� Trump said on his way into court Thursday.

The case is putting his net worth on trial, scrutinizing the real estate empire that first built his reputation, and threatening to block him from doing business in his native state.

New York Attorney General Letitia James' suit accuses Trump, his company and some executives of misleading banks and insurers by giving them financial statements full of inflated values for such signature assets as his Trump Tower penthouse and Mar-a-Lago, the Florida club where he now lives. The statements were provided to help secure deals 바카라 게임 웹사이트� including loans at attractive interest rates available to hyperwealthy people 바카라 게임 웹사이트� and some loans required updated statements each year.

Trump denies any wrongdoing, and he posits that the statements' numbers actually fell short of his wealth. He also has downplayed the documents' importance in getting deals, saying it was clear that lenders and others should do their own analyses. And he claims the case is a partisan abuse of power by James and Judge Arthur Engoron, both Democrats.

Thursday's witness, New York University accounting professor Eli Bartov, appeared for Trump's defense.

In a report prepared before his testimony, Bartov disputed the attorney general's allegations that Trump's financial statements flouted basic accounting rules. The professor added that in the accounting and financial world, recipients see such statements as just a starting point for doing their own analyses.

Trump has regularly railed about the case on his Truth Social platform.

Going to court in person affords him a microphone 바카라 게임 웹사이트� in fact, many of them, on the news cameras positioned in the hallway. He often stops on his way into and out of the proceedings, which cameras can't record, to expostulate and to cast various developments as victories.

His out-of-court remarks got him fined $10,000 Oct. 26, when Engoron decided Trump had violated a gag order that prohibits participants in the trial from commenting publicly on court staffers. Trump's lawyers are appealing the gag order.

James hasn't let Trump go unanswered, often 바카라 게임 웹사이트� but not Thursday 바카라 게임 웹사이트� showing up to court herself when he's there and making her own comments on social media and the courthouse steps. Lawyers in the case have been told not to make press statements in the hallway, but the former president has been allowed to do so.

바카라 게임 웹사이트�Here바카라 게임 웹사이트�s a fact: Donald Trump has engaged in years of financial fraud. Here바카라 게임 웹사이트�s another fact: When you break the law, there are consequences,바카라 게임 웹사이트� her office wrote this week on X, formerly Twitter.

While the non-jury trial is airing claims of conspiracy, insurance fraud and falsifying business records, Engoron ruled beforehand that Trump and other defendants engaged in fraud. He ordered that a receiver take control of some of Trump바카라 게임 웹사이트�s properties, but an appeals court has held off on that order for now.

At trial, James is seeking more than $300 million in penalties and a prohibition on Trump and other defendants doing business in New York.

It's not clear exactly when testimony will wrap up, but it's expected before Christmas. Closing arguments are scheduled in January, and Engoron is aiming for a decision by the end of that month.
