Former President Donald Trump has begun testifying in a civil fraud lawsuit that accuses him of dramatically inflating his net worth.
FILE – Former President Donald Trump speaks during a break in his civil business fraud trial at New York Supreme Court, Oct. 25, 2023, in New York. The Donald Trump who testifies at a New York civil trial on Monday may be more subdued than the version often seen in campaign rallies.
“It’s going to be a stunning moment. This is dramatic enough if he was simply an ex-president facing these charges. But the fact that he is the overwhelming favorite to run the GOP, it makes this a staggering Monday,” said presidential historian Douglas Brinkley. The vast majority of his speaking has happened outside the courtroom, where he has taken full advantage of the bank of assembled media to voice his outrage and spin the days’ proceedings in the most favorable way.
Trump is also likely to be asked about how he views and values his brand – and the economic impact of his fame and time as president — and may be asked to explain claims that his financial statements actually undervalued his wealth.
