CNN Is Really Pathetic In Its Coverage Of the Trump Fraud Trial!

[BULLDOG]

Laws aren't for Democrats.

The only purpose of laws is so that Democrats can use them to attack their political opponents.

We are a country of laws. They are for all of us.

hmmm...your denial that it was slowed validates this part of "dukes "claim:

Awwww, hi Stewart.

 

[mudwhistle]

We are a country of laws. They are for all of us.

Now you and I both know that isn't true.

 

[otto105]

Now you and I both know that isn't true.

How is it not true?

Unless you believe that your side is always the victim.

 

[Frankeneinstein]

Awwww, hi Stewart.

That's quite the retort oddo...and here I was, so sure that you wouldn't be able to address my point ...good job bro.

Trump has already been found guilty in a summary judgment. From now on it's gonna be on the dollar amount of damages leveled against Trump.

Neither the Bank nor the country Tax Assessors filed a complaint against Trump.
This Democrat corruption and abuse of power.
This is a 100% politically motivated indictment.
This is election interference.

CNN is throwing away their journalism integrity on the covering of the Trump New York fraud trial. CNN should stop only having analysts on that are so biased against Trump its offensive to watch and have at least a few analysts on that think justly that this case is a disgrace that it was brought and a real travesty of justice. This case is about valuations of real estate on financial statements, valuations to a large degree are subjective regularly one reads or hears in the media about a celebrity that sold some real estate for much less than it was originally listed for sale at. If someone in their financial statements is limited to comparable sale prices how can they get the potential sales price when they sell it because potential buyers will say you valued it lower than the listing price on your financial statement. The law is clear that banks and insurance companies are considered sophisticated business entities it is imputed on them that they know the fair value of property involved in their business transactions when a FS is used because they have the wherewithal the experts, etc. to discover it, they don't get to rely on a Financial Statement. It is alarming that the Attorney General of New York is bringing a fraud case about financial statements that she thinks the submitter of the Financial Statements over estimated the value of real estate what an alarming precedent, people that use and people that prepare such documents are now going to have to be worried about be dragged into court on fraud charges, in all fairness this is a misstep by the Attorney General that on basic fairness grounds should be grounds for impeachment!

CNN coverage here is an embarrassment to journalism. Anderson Cooper criticizing Trump for Trump's complaint that he has to come off the campaign trail to defend on this political trial and Anderson says well he doesn't have to show up at the trial, it isn't like a criminal trial. Only the stakes for Trump are his family business that he spent his life building and the business that his two oldest sons have largely given their life to operate and depend on to provide for their families, Cooper acting like such a jerk! He doesn't stop with the jerk behavior he calls Trump out for angry remarks about the case to the media before the trial about headline grabbing but he fails to recognize that it is a just counter to AG James' public condemnation remarks before the trial about how Trump is essentially going to get his reckoning!

CNN is so biased. Having pundits come on their programs saying well Trump claimed on his Financial Statement that his condo in Trump Tower was X number of square feet in size when it actually is a third of the number provided and acting like that is a smoking gun. I'm not a real estate expert but I know condominiums have titles in the local municipality title record office and I am sure banks or insurance companies have the capacity to check Trump's Condominium title in the respective office and discover the actual square footage. And in regards to over estimating the value of the Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida I believe the court wants to value it at eighteen million dollars, I am not a real estate or a construction expert but know that is a completely unjust figure because one should be able to value a property at replacement cost and just an ordinary person with ordinary knowledge about construction work would know the cost to build that Club and estate today would be at least one hundred million dollars. I just wish and maybe it is beyond the capacity of CNN management but I just wish this organization would provide fair and balanced journalism that is the role of a Journalistic organization in a good democracy!

Did (and the answer is yes) the former 1-term fuckup use illegal valuations to evade taxes and hurt all of us fuckup…


Cry while you kiss the ring.

To me, the funny part is all the useful idiots that have been convinced that a bank will loan money on the word of the property owner, instead of doing their due diligence and having their own people determine the value. F’n children.

How Trump Fooled Deutsche Bank

Trump’s lender fell for lies about how big, and possibly how profitable, his properties actually were.

While I appreciate your minimal effort of pasting a link, I still contend that a lender that doesn’t do the due diligence of independently assessing the value of collateral deserves whatever poor consequences may arise. Luckily, these banks were dealing with an honest person who paid them back in full, with interest.
Think better.

So do you think it benefits NY businesses to follow Trump's lead, and lie about their own sworn assets in order to qualify for better interest rates on their own loans? Is that the risk and message you want to give to the business market place, or the bank shareholders....?

Do you think it's our turn to put the lawfare on you?

You would hate it

Businesses are free to place any value they’d like upon their assets, much like you are free to sell your Vespa for whatever amount you choose. In both cases, external entities (banks/buyers) will decide what it’s worth to them. This isn’t rocket science, Carf.
