The Art of the Steal
Two separate civil court cases have Trump in hot water for failing to provide evidence that Trump did not illegally take classified government documents and for stealing $250 million in a 10 year scheme to defraud investors and tax officials.
Judge Raymond Dearie called out Trump's legal team for failing to provide any evidence that Trump declassified top secret documents seized from his home saying, "My view is you can't have your cake and eat it too." Also in the news, New York State Attorney General Letitia James is suing Trump for defrauding lenders, insurance brokers and tax authorities saying that Trump, "violated a host of state criminal laws" and characterized lying about his net worth as, "the art of the steal.”
