💬 Quoted…​​ "Donald Trump falsely inflated his net worth by billions of dollars."

NY AG Letitia James filed a civil lawsuit yesterday against former President Trump, three of his adult children, and his company, alleging they engaged in a decade-long scheme to inflate their assets. The suit seeks to wrest back $250 million in “ill-gotten gains,” as well as bar the four individuals from serving as an officer or director of a business registered in NY state.

  • Trump called the case a witch hunt in a social-media post, while his lawyers said the lawsuit’s claims were meritless. A spokeswoman for the Trump Organization called it “the culmination of nearly three years of persistent, targeted, unethical political harassment.”
