Trump tells judge in fraud case to leave his children alone
by Sarah Fortinsky - 11/01/23 7:51 AM ET
Former President Trump railed against the judge overseeing his New York civil fraud case and told him to leave his children alone, in a post early Wednesday morning.
He also argued that there is enough evidence for the case to be thrown out.
“This Rigged Trial, brought by the Racist New York State A.G. Letitia James before Trump and developer Hating Judge, Arthur Engoron, which should have never been brought in that the so-called STAR WITNESS, SleazeBag Lawyer (for many people) Michael Cohen, admitted last week on the stand that he LIED,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, referencing his former personal lawyer.
“Therefore, on that fact alone, this Fake Case should be dismissed,” he added.
The former president claimed in his post that the financial statements from his businesses were actually lower than the true value — contrary to some of the testimony presented in the trial. He also reiterated the defense’s argument that there was a “disclaimer clause” on the statements and that banks were paid in full.
“There is no Victim (except me!). Leave my children alone, Engoron,” Trump added, addressing the judge. “You are a disgrace to the legal profession!”
