A New York judge on Tuesday found former President Trump liable for fraud, handing a major legal victory to New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) in her sprawling civil case over Trump’s businesses.

New York Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron granted James’s request to find Trump liable for the first of seven causes of action she has accused him of in the lawsuit.

Engoron simultaneously denied Trump’s demand to toss the entire suit without trying the case. The non-jury trial on the remaining matters is set to begin Monday, barring Trump’s separate, last-minute effort for a delay.

Engoron also granted James’s request to sanction five of Trump’s lawyers for bringing up already-dismissed arguments in court, ordering them to pay a $7,500 fine each.

James’s office is suing Trump, the Trump Organization and two of his adult children — Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr.— claiming more than a decade of fraud. The lawsuit alleges Trump’s company sought lower taxes and better insurance coverage by falsely inflating and deflating the value of its assets.

James’s office is seeking some $250 million in financial penalties. It also seeks to bar Trump and his children from serving as officers or directors of New York-registered or licensed corporations.

You gotta love the leftists. Trump's a guy that isn't really as wealthy as he says, would have more money today had he just bought an annuity, screws everyone over while they all profit from his resorts and shite, is too dumb to buy a pair of socks while outwiting his business partners...and on and on.

How did this poor, dumb basturd outsmart every New Yorker with whom he ever did business?

Even the Mafia loses now and then.

SFP and Aggie will be here shortly to libsplain to us how this case has rock solid legal foundations and is in no way a lawfare tactic.

The judge must be illiterate. He essentially signed his name with an X. Let me guess?

What a f*cking joke.

Trump is a thief. Understates income, overstates expenses..,overvalues properties to reduce taxes to the state. Did the same with his fed taxes as well. Cheats and lies. What a character.

A fool and his money are soon parted.

And giving your money to a transparent con-man that has been convicted of fraud multiple times isn’t the flex you think it is.

I know for a fact you won’t respond, but I’ll waste my time anyways.

Who did you vote for in the 2020 Presidential election?

I’ll hang up and listen…
