Tucker Carlson Drops Huge Truth Bomb on Trump’s Civil Trial
By Matt Margolis
On Monday, President Trump was in court for his civil fraud trial. Last week, New York City Judge Arthur Engoron ruled that Trump had committed fraud for overvaluing his Mar-a-Lago estate. Engoron ruled the property was only worth $18 million, even though real estate experts say it’s worth $300 million.
It’s an absurd case courtesy of partisan leftist state Attorney General Letitia James, who campaigned for her position on the promise of “getting” Trump, and she’s receiving all the help she needs from Engoron — a partisan leftist judge. There is little doubt this is a show trial with a predetermined outcome.
On Monday evening, Tucker Carlson interviewed Victor Davis Hanson to discuss the case, which he called a “grotesque parody of the system our forefathers created.”
“Trump stands accused of inflating the value of collateral used to secure loans, loans that he has already paid back with interest,” Carlson explained. “In other words, there is no injured party in this case. The biggest banks in the world assessed the risk, and they made a profit… not a single person was defrauded. For this non-crime, Trump and his children are in the process of losing their homes and their businesses.”
Engoron seemed to relish the attention, smiling for the camera and not even trying to hide his lack of objectivity.
