Florida's CFO floated the idea of publicly funding former President Trump's legal defense fund to fight 'liberal prosecutors' as he battles fraud allegations in a civil trial.

Florida's chief financial officer, Jimmy Patronis, suggested providing public funding for former President Trump's legal defense to fight 'liberal prosecutors' as he battles fraud allegations. Patronis floated the proposal on Monday amid Trump's civil fraud trial that stemmed from a lawsuit brought against him, his family and his businesses by New York Attorney General Letitia James.

Last month, Engoron ruled that Trump and the Trump Organization committed fraud while building his real estate empire by deceiving banks, insurers and others by overvaluing his assets and exaggerating his net worth on paperwork used in making deals and securing financing.
