Big favorite of the Republican primary, Donald Trump was fined $355 million on Friday February 16 for fraud. Trials and convictions are increasing against the former American president.
Billionaire Donald Trump would have done without this colossal fine. The former American president was ordered to pay $355 million to the American courts for financial fraud within his real estate empire, the Trump Organization. The Attorney General of the State of New York, elected from the Democratic Party, hailed a huge victory for her party. “Today we proved that no one is above the law. It doesn’t matter how rich, powerful and politically influential you are“, assured Letitia James.
Donald Trump will appeal
Donald Trump will no longer be able to run a business in New York State for three years, a catastrophe for the candidate’s economic empire. “He will be forced to drastically reduce his business in New York state for at least a few years“, underlines James Sample, professor of law. The former tenant of the White House denounced a “witch hunt” and announced that he would appeal.
