Letitia James scores big over Donald Trump
Given that New York Attorney General went into court with an overwhelming case that Donald Trump and Trump Organization committed a systematic pattern of financial fraud, Trump was going to need one heck of a defense strategy. Instead Trump’s defense “strategy” was sub-crayon level childlike in nature.
Now that the trial has wrapped, it’s obvious that James has scored big over Trump. Here’s what she had to say about it:
Today, we concluded our case against Donald Trump for engaging in years of financial fraud to unjustly enrich himself and his family.
Donald Trump may lie, but the facts don't.
I’m proud of the case we presented, and I’m confident justice will prevail. pic.twitter.com/fZRk5IjdDU— NY AG James (@NewYorkStateAG) January 12, 2024

We should have a final verdict, and official penalties, by the end of the month. Keep in mind that Judge Arthur Engoron already summarily ruled against Trump before the trial began – and that’s not going to change, given how the trial ended up playing out.
