TFG hangs himself with his own words. NY A.G. fires back at Trump's defense of financial statements

Last edited Thu Feb 17, 2022, 01:52 PM - Edit history (1)

Trump’s attorneys trying to give him a defense against NY’s A.G.: He just did not know all about “that stuff."

Trump: Oh yes I know all about “that stuff.”

NY’s A.G. Letitia James: Oh really, Donny. Tell me more.

Trump's attorneys repeatedly stated that he did not know enough to respond to allegations of inaccurate valuations. But the former president's five-page statement got into detail about possible discrepancies, implying that he had more knowledge than his lawyers said.

"It is not unusual for parties to a legal proceeding to disagree about the facts," the attorney general's office wrote in a letter filed in New York state court. "But it is truly rare for a party to publicly disagree with statements submitted by his own attorneys in a signed pleading -- let alone one day after the pleading was filed.”

I’ll take late April when Trump flees the country.

DIY you intend to write: “did NOT know” ?

And yes, he’ll be a flight risk at some point
