The Very Definition Of A Kangaroo Court Show Trial - Deutsche Bank Destroys New York AG's Case Against Trump
Posted by freedomforall 2 years, 6 months ago to Politics
Excerpt:
"A Deutsche Bank executive may have just tanked New York Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit against former President Donal Drump - which revolved around portraying the German lender as Trump's biggest victim in an alleged scheme to inflate his assets in order to obtain favorable terms from banks and insurers.
David Williams, who directly worked on at least one of several loans obtained by Trump over several decades, testified on Tuesday in Manhattan that it's "atypical, but not entirely unusual" for a bank to internally slash a client's stated asset values by 50% and approve a loan anyway, as they did with Trump, Bloomberg reports.
"It just depends on the circumstances," said Williams, a managing director at the bank.
Deutsche Bank, which loaned hundreds of millions of dollars to Trump for properties in Miami, Chicago and Washington, cut his stated net worth in 2011 and 2012 from about $4.2 billion to $2.3 billion, according to internal bank credit memos. The same documents indicated the bank approved the loans anyway because it expected them to generate a profit based on Trump’s history of successful developments and other criteria.
Trump, who denies wrongdoing and claims the case is politically motivated, is calling to the stand this week four current and former Deutsche Bank employees — including the family’s former private banker Rosemary Vrablic — as part of his defense case, seeking to flip the script on the state’s version of events. -Bloomberg
The testimony completely undermines AG James' premise, that Trump defrauded the German bank."

The real purpose of both cases, of course, as well as the Florida case, is to stop Trump's reelection, either by putting him in jail or just using gag orders so that he can't campaign. Luckily he got a decent judge in Florida, who is having none of it.
No more 40 years on DEATH ROW due to endless appeals.
This also is the only way to insure that the punishment isn't pardoned by the next Deep State puppet.
that is why they are liberals
This is a bogus trial which should have been thrown out as soon as it was filed. I agree with ffa: both the AG and the judge should be removed and disbarred.
ACTIVELY DENYING ANOTHER CITIZEN OF HIS/HER RIGHTS should carry and AUTOMATIC loss of their own citizenship!
In fact, the word "likely" up and jumped into my head after I wrote the above. We'll see . . .
Now "very likely" appeared. Stop that, dino.
They will get him so they can get us. See the Jan 6 monkey trials.
Evidence? We not need no stinkin' evidence. Orange Man Bad!
Q: How bent is the judge?
A: Pretzel bent.
If you are a patriotic, thinking American, how much government action has been rational since 2019?
If Trump overstated asset values, and as a result Deutsche Bank (DB) approved a larger loan than it otherwise would have but the loan was repaid, then there's no foul. DB should be more careful in future dealings with Trump.
If DB gave Trump a lower interest rate than it would have otherwise, DB might have recourse under the terms of the loan agreement. However, any legal action is up to DB, not the state.
If Trump defaulted on the loan, they could sue Trump to seize assets to satisfy the loan. Again, this is up to DB, not the state.
