Former President Donald Trump is a defendant in a New York civil business fraud trial brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James.

Donald Trump won’t make his own closing argument in his New York civil business fraud trial after his lawyers objected to the judge’s insistence that the former president would stick to “relevant” matters.

    His lawyers probably don’t want to work for him any longer than necessary. If they were smart they got paid in advance for this trial.

      In 5 years I wouldn’t be surprised to read about these current set of lawyers suing him for payment and him saying something like “they wanted a lot of money for being a bunch of losers. Why should I pay?” assuming he’s still alive and hasn’t died due to old age and cheese burgers by then.
