Trump to Appeal New York City Fraud Case

Former President Donald Trump is set to challenge New York State Judge Arthur Engoron’s definition of fraud after he was ordered to pay a $364 million penalty.

Former Trump Banker at Deutsche Bank David Williams testified in the trial that the bank made its own assessments on valuations, and in one example adjusted Trump’s claimed net worth from $4.9 billion to $2.6 billion, stating that the adjustment was “not unusual or atypical.”

Last night Trump stated on Truth Social:
