In a stunning, pre-trial win in New York attorney general’s all-out war on the Trump Organization, a Manhattan judge has found that Donald Trump committed fraud for years by inflating his worth to banks and insurers by as much as $3.6 billion a year.
A strongly-worded ruling by state Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron rejected outright Trump’s request for a range of pre-trial victories, calling his arguments “rehashed” and “erroneous.”
Instead, the judge gave a major victory to Attorney General Letitia James, immediately revoking Trump’s license to do business in New York.
“It’s the corporate death penalty,” said Diana Florence, a veteran financial crimes prosecutor for the Manhattan district attorney’s office, now in private practice.
“This ruling essentially dissolves his company,” she said, though she predicted that years of appeals may pass before anything actually happens.
Bye bye Trump org!

sigh that last quote about it getting tied up in appeals is the shitty part. It’ll hang in limbo and trump will die without ever seeing a consequence. He’ll die thinking (and largely correctly) that he won.
Hey, Texas, you paying attention? Corporations can be executed too!
A convicted fraud, you say.
It won’t matter to his supporters. Trump pardoned Steve Bannon for fraud charges where he was stealing people’s donations to “build the wall”. They still don’t care.
And will anything happen?
Says the judge revoked ALL of his business certificates in New York. Trial will continue to assess damages he must pay.
But if he declares bankruptcy ? Plus he can just hide his business in shell companies or his kids
Bankruptcy isn’t a get out of debt free card. It’s a “you’re gonna sell this stuff to pay off your creditors” card.
His sons were involved in the lawsuit and cannot legally do business in New York.
It’s effectively no longer his to be declared bankrupt, the NY state will be appointing people to control it. This is the one he can’t escape from
Is he able/or has he already given these to his children yet? You know, like Mar-A-Lago

I’m not sure what restrictions will be when he obviously tries to appeal. Can’t go to his sons though since they’re also affected by the order.
Just think about it. You’re born filthy rich. You inherit 500 million dollars, in the 1980’s. You learn to live off of loans from banks, how to inflate the worth of your “properties,” and how to deflate the worth of your “properties” to scam banks, because unlike your father, you’re an absolute moron when it comes to making an honest buck. Even with the army of lawyers and accountants you inherited from dad.
So when American and European banks stop loaning you money because you default on all your loans, you need a new source of income. Your best bud Super New York Mayor Man ruined your daddy’s connections with the Pizza Guys, so when some guy who sounded like Chekov from Star Trek called and said he wanted to buy 50 condos at the same time, you knew God was Real.
Life was good. You still hadn’t made a single honest buck, but boy did those Russian guys like their condos. You even had your own TV show, where everyone could see how much you loved being a bully and an asshole. You even had your own beauty contest, and saw lots and lots of that sweet, sweet 18 year old T and A.
You. Had. It. Made. Millions of dollars. Eastern Block ex-porn wife who couldn’t stay off of the phone with someone named Vlad.
It could have went on until you had your stroke on your gold plated shitter.
But no, your ego is so fragile, you’re such a raging narcissist than you have to play King of the World, too.
What a fucking idiot.
Edit: I didn’t mean to imply Fred Trump was honest. I meant that he actually made his money, unlike Donald, who inherited his.
He also allegedly liked busting in on sub-18 year olds at those pageants as well. He also allegedly had a long history of using “illegal aliens” as labor so he wouldn’t have to pay them and they had no recourse.
Listen/watch episode 300A & 300B of The Dollop podcast on Trump and be amazed he went this long without someone (he couldn’t counter-sue away) bringing charges.
“no dude you don’t understand, it’s not fraud it’s just a smart business tactic”
“I don’t understand what the fucking problem is. Everyone lies. Everyone cheats. Everyone steals. Know how I know? Because I do.”
Everyone does it, tho!?!
