Trump appeared in a New York court on Tuesday for the third week of a civil fraud trial which is centered on allegations that he inflated his net worth to secure more favorable loan terms. Dressed in a dark blue suit and wearing a U.S. flag pin on his lapel, Trump lashed out at the Biden administration and repeated his claim that the case amounted to a political witchhunt.
"My speech has been taken away from me. I'm a candidate that's running for office, and I'm not allowed to speak. This is a railroading," Trump said. Kidder was followed on the witness stand by real estate appraiser Doug Larson, who the attorney general's office said valued Trump's 40 Wall Street property at nearly $200 million less than what he listed on financial documents.
