The values submitted by him to the banks to secure loans. 2. The values stated by him on his real estate tax forms. Rachel Maddow did a very good explanation of Trump’s property, bank and insurance fraud when Michael Cohen delivered the goods to the NYAG. Black and white fraud, and the NYAG has the receipts. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ozimoron Posted September 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2023 A main ruling on Tuesday found that Donald Trump (and family) are liable for over-valuing properties to score bigger and better loans. The judge has ruled that the Trump Org. must cease all operations as the other charges are decided. Responding to the judge saying Trump jacked up the price of properties, his son Eric Trump complained that Mar-a-Lago is worth over $1 billion. The judge valued it at more like $18 million. https://www.rawstory.com/eric-trump-mar-a-lago-value/ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Chomper Higgot Posted September 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2023 Here’s the best bit, well one of the best bits. The courts will take control of all Trump’s US business assets then dispose of them. A process that will involve real valuations and balancing the loans against the asset values. We’ll get to see the real values, the debts and who the money is owed to, 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The judge deemed the evidence to be so overwhelming--and the defense claims so weak and irrelevant--that there's no need for a trial. Trump is unquestionably guilty of fraud as charged. The trial will only deal with the penalties. There will be appeals, of course, but even that doesn't look promising. Trump is toast. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KhunLA Posted September 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2023 Trump found guilty of fraud ... oh my. It's a civil case in civil court, and no criminal charges filed. Shows how desperate they are to silence Trump. What business person, corporation hasn't exaggerated their net worth, up or down. You'd have to take half the citizens to jail for fraud, whether exaggerating their net worth up .... or down, to avoid taxes. Unless he committed bank/mail fraud, and obviously didn't, or he'd be in criminal court for that. So simply another smear campaign. 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me guess: You think the charges in the NYC fraud case are bogus. You think the classified documents case is bogus. You think the Georgia case is bogus. You think the Federal Jan 6 case is bogus. And now you think the New York state fraud case is bogus. Trump is innocent of all of this, despite all the documentation, the literal tons of evidence. But Joe Biden is guilty of something, despite the complete lack of published evidence, right? What happened to "everyone is equal under the law"? Why do you maintain 2 different standards of justice in your head? 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump Organization gets 'corporate death penalty' after 'persistent fraud': legal experts (msn.com) He will go to criminal court for this soon. Do you think the banks and insurers will be OK with this? Just another Trump supporter ignoring the facts.

So by your own standards if he goes to a criminal court then its not a smear campaign and fine. Ok so just confirming that with you on the 91 criminal indictments he has in separate cases. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
