Trump blasts New York AG TishJames's lawsuit, touts 'powerful disclaimer' on financial disclosures
The former president called the lawsuit"a continuation of a witch hunt that began when I came down the escalator at Trump tower," a reference to his 2015 speech announcing his intention to run for president, during an interview with Fox News's Sean Hannity. Trump also accused New York Attorney General Letitia James of campaigning on going after him and said that James is"trying to defend banks that got paid off.
The former president added that he was"under the impression she wanted to settle" the case and didn't believe James was going to file a lawsuit after he sat for a deposition related to the case last month.James's lawsuit alleges that the Trump Organization manipulated asset valuations to"deceive banks and the people of the great state of New York.
Trump claimed during the interview, which took place at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, that all parties that his company obtained loans from were paid back and that his company includes a lengthy disclaimer with all financial disclosures it provides to banks.
