A judge ruled Tuesday that Donald Trump committed fraud for years while building the real estate empire that catapulted him to fame and the White House.

New York Supreme Court Judge Arthur F. Engoron, ruling in a civil lawsuit brought by New York’s attorney general, found that the former president and his company deceived banks, insurers and others by massively overvaluing his assets and exaggerating his net worth on paperwork used in making deals and securing financing.

  1. Louis Rossmann created a video entitled "Trump's New York fraud ruling sets precedent that lying about square footage is WRONG? " in which he describes a dozen shop premises that he looked at in New York with a view to renting one property. In every case the realtor who attempted to rent him a shop exaggerated the ground area of the shop by around 100%. When confronted, one realtor said that that was how we do things in New York.

    Like me, Louis Rossmann states that does not like Trump. However, Louis thinks that if the courts go after Trump then they should go after every other property owner in New York for committing the same crime.

  2. Nothing burgers more people corrupt working for Biden war machine judge is Biden rump rider

  3. Judge is nuts he gonna get kick out of court

  4. She bs she a want be but she gonna get kicked out of for all her corupt

  6. Now Donald Trump can bring lawsuits of companies like the Koch brothers/ Warren Buffet and we can see how honest they are?

  7. I could say my house is worth a lot more but the appraisal says it's worth something less that doesn't mean y are a crook is this all they have need to talk about how get our country back on track cause we are in a bad place right now

  8. “Sorry if that hurts people but it’s either root for a recession or you lose your democracy,” – Bill Maher

  9. My home value was inflated

  10. This New York Democrat Judge said Trump's Mar Lago estate only worth 18 million. Seems his appraisal of Trumps' properties are way off. So Trump is paying to much taxes on his properties since a real appraisal says it worth 300 million.

  11. The Ashley Biden diary is the most recent example of a blanket media blackout, a July 2019 excerpt going viral two weeks ago. Read this and defend it as non-newsworthy:

    “Was I molested,” the author writes. “I think so — I can’t remember specifics but I do remember trauma. Hyper-sexualized @ a young age . . . I remember being somewhat sexualized with Caroline; I remember having sex with friends @ a young age; showers w/my dad (probably not appropriate).” Alexandra Tara Reade,, Vail Kohnert-Yount,, Sofie Karasek,, Ally Coll,, Caitlyn Caruso,, D.J. Hill,, Amy Lappos,, Lucy Flores,, meet the eight woman who no voice since they came out against Biden!! sadly even at my advanced age i still have my memory, i can recall facts and history!!!!! record crime, forgotten facts and history ! imagine if truth, dignity, and morals were needed to vote !

  12. Mr Trump lies and cheats at everything. He has given an oath of marriage to 3 different women and cheated on every one of them. It’s not even disputed. He laughed about it. His golf caddies call him Pele because he kicks the ball out of the rough and onto the fairway so often. He arranged for fake electors to declare him winner of an election when he didn’t have the votes. Now this. Trump lies about his wealth and doesn’t pay his bills. Tradesmen in the Northeast have known this for decades.

  13. Trump is a master in stealing and ripping off people.

  14. I love how she absolutely spit out, "And former presidents are no different."

  15. Hang it up the whole world knows what all you dems are doing. We just laugh

  16. Corrupt politicians corrupt judges corrupt courts corrupt government

  17. He's always talking about a witch hunt. Looks like the hunt's been a success.

  18. There can not be different rules for different people…. 0:24

    …unless you're an illegal immigrant, am I right NY? Free everything, no vaccinations for school children, monthly stipend

    What do NYKERS get –these same things?

  19. Not surprising, always expect the Unexpected, and there are no problems ONLY SOLUTIONS. 😊

  20. It means his numbers will go up and NOW I have no coice but to vote for him.

  21. hunter's crack, 10% for the big guy

  22. Ukraine oh Ukraine, why die for the great Satan 🙏🙏🙏

  23. Trump took the 5th over 400 times when disposed for this lawsuit. He had his chance.
    Trump agreed to MAL to be a country club and got a lower appraisal and tax bill as it can’t be split up for residential. It’s also a historic site. He won’t tell you this.
    Trump agreed to summary judgement as he didn’t want the public humiliation.
    He did it ALL himself, no one to blame.

    All the banks will now ask their loans be paid out during the disbursement phase in the next 10 days.

    He’s gotta sell some stuff.

  24. It means he is going to get more votes.

  25. A deputy of the Russian Federation called it a “show of mercy” that the son of Senator Kadyrov beat an arrested person in violation of Russian laws

  26. More lies about Pres Trump. Looks like the dems are still scared of him cause he's so far ahead in the polls, he's leaving potato head Biden in the dust. Well, my, my, my. Letitia is a paid shill and a fraud.

  27. We will know in 5 years 😂

  28. Communism in its true form…

  29. the law is the law. trump had a boatload of pros
    to tell him what was legal-he chose to do the
    the opposite. the law is the law-no excuses.

  30. YEAH!!!!! YAhoo……🤸‍♂🤸‍♂🤸‍♂🤸‍♂🤸‍♂

  31. ASS CLOWNS FAILED FJB

  32. Does the melodramatic idiot reading out the statement really think that the standard that’s being applied to Trump is also being applied to Biden? Of course not. What a sewer of corruption and hypocrisy America is.

  33. Someone "over exaggerated" their ability to form a sentence.

  34. Disgusting Democrat and RINO id*ots. They'll stop at nothing to try to stop the will of the people. The will of the people will prevail. President Donald J. Trump will prevail. God bless America! God bless the whole Trump family! We don't ask for perfection, we ask for making America great again, making America God loving again, and freeing the world of Globalist infestation.

  35. Chrissy Teigen said it best (of Trump): "Pu * * y A * * B * tch"
