Trump Civil Trial

You think that the state of New York owes so much as a nickel to someone who overvalued their business for fraudulent purposes?

No, Brian. No they don't. If he overpaid state taxes because of his own deceit, that's something he did to himself.

States determined assessed property values and assesses the tax due.

Assessed value is not necessarily market value. Market value is not necessarily sales price.

Are car dealers committing fraud when they sell cars below MSRP? Are they committing fraud if they sell cars above MSRP? Maybe James should go after every car dealer in NY after this side show,

He made his bed, now he has to cry in it.
AKA Con artists don't get rebates for getting busted on their cons.

Welcome to the Art of the Steal 101.

It cannot possibly be news to you that yes, car dealers involved in fraud get investigated and arrested all the time. Like it's in any way ridiculous for the state to after car dealerships? They do that, yes. Every car dealer knows that documentation is an important part of their routine work.

You completely missed the point on car dealers.

FACT

Value can change over time. Tax assessors determine a value at a specific time. Months later that value may be quite different.
Business valuations are even more variable.

Yes... and the NY AG didn't know the law... 80 percent of their case was thrown out...

NY AG had 80 percent of their case thrown out... they had no proof for a criminal case and because they have nothing better to do, decided to bring a civil case... anybody who can't see that this is just pure election interference is either blind or a liar...

How is it that when it has zero impact on the election other than riling up Trump's support?
