Donald Trump Jr gave evidence on Wednesday at the civil fraud trial over whether his father overstated his wealth to banks and insurers, a case that threatens former US president Donald Trump’s property empire.
He made some lighthearted asides, for instance, when asked whether he belonged to an accountants’ organisation, he replied: “Sounds very exciting, but no.”But the Trump Organisation executive vice president took serious care to establish that he is not an accountant or an expert on accounting standards that have been mentioned in the case.
Ms James, a Democrat, alleges that Donald Trump, his company and top executives, including sons Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr, conspired to exaggerate his wealth by billions of dollars on his financial statements that were given to banks, insurers and others to secure loans and make deals. Eric Trump has oversight over the company’s operations, while his brother has been involved in running the company’s property development.
Donald Trump Jr had not been to court before Wednesday, but has repeatedly denounced the case and Judge Engoron as a “kangaroo court.”Donald Trump blasted Judge Engoron on Wednesday on Truth Social as a Trump-hating “political hack” who is “doing the dirty work for the Democrat Party”.
