Gee. Are you saying Trump is a victim? Have you read the indictments?If Trumps name wasn't on the letterhead, there would have been no bothering of Weiselberg.
If the relevant higher court refuses to accept the Trump team's appeal, that will mean that they have sided with the corrupt lower court's claims of injury to "the letter of the law."I read it the first time, it's just a silly notion given that it was a civil trial and the grounds for disgorgement (and its amount) were clearly established.
Since "the letter of the law" is your song and dance, then should one assume that you support the law in every case, even if an established law goes against your partisan principles? I bet that won't stand up to strong scrutiny on laws that Mad Libs hate.There's nothing false about it since it is the letter of the law. You can keep doing your Tango around this basic fact, but it changes nothing.
Have you an actual list of cases in which a non-rich client was taken to court by a lender who didn't like their valuation? Or is it more likely that the lender simply wouldn't do business with said client?It is not, because if anyone outside financial elites tried this, they'd get taken to court by the lender. Perhaps you can put this to the test with your property taxes and loan documentations and let us know how it turns out. Your definition of "standard" is fraud that's factored into how lenders approach their well heeled clients.
I find it laughable that you entertain the idea that the Democrats stage-managing this farrago care about the non-rich people in society. Of course it makes a difference to banks if they know, in advance of making the contract, that a client is less likely to default on a loan. It could indeed be standard practice to blink at minor misrepresentations and agree to lower interest rates because they know they will get their money back.Other loan recipients and the market itself. Or are you positing that fraud should be an acceptable practice? I guess if you think that elites should be able to lie to get favorable loan rates while everyone else doesn't then that rationale might make some kind of warped sense.
There's nothing more puerile than the notion that James and Engoron are motivated by anything but political advantage.You haven't at all. You've been spinning in circles down the loo supporting fraud and using child-like reasoning to support it: "b..b..but other people do iiiiit!!".
Lots of "ifs" there.If the relevant higher court refuses to accept the Trump team's appeal, that will mean that they have sided with the corrupt lower court's claims of injury to "the letter of the law."
If they do hear it, that will indicate that James' case is not as ironclad as you choose to believe.

I don't, do you? What I do know is that filing false information on loan documents is a crime, so I don't do it.Have you an actual list of cases in which a non-rich client was taken to court by a lender who didn't like their valuation? Or is it more likely that the lender simply wouldn't do business with said client?
They are, and are based on the dimensions of the property, which Trump falsely claimed.Property taxes are determined by the government. One can lodge protests but it's not a voluntary contract.
Fair enough, since your entire fraud defense has been immensely entertaining.I find it laughable that you entertain the idea that the Democrats stage-managing this farrago care about the non-rich people in society.

Ooh! Another assumption.There's nothing more puerile than the notion that James and Engoron are motivated by anything but political advantage.
If the FBI raids our cult headquarters, that will mean that they have sided with the enemy.If the relevant higher court refuses to accept the Trump team's appeal, that will mean that they have sided with the corrupt lower court's claims of injury to "the letter of the law."
If they do hear it, that will indicate that James' case is not as ironclad as you choose to believe.
I should have included, "what if another court reduces the ruinous bond to avoid accusations of cruel and unusual punishment" and asked you to bet on it. Then again, you're losing enough as it is.Lots of "ifs" there.
...followed by an assumption.
I don't, do you? What I do know is that filing false information on loan documents is a crime, so I don't do it.
Not the only factor.They are, and are based on the dimensions of the property, which Trump falsely claimed.
I can't surpass you, though Jon Stewart might.Fair enough, since your entire fraud defense has been immensely entertaining.
A probable hypothesis, based on the fact that a prominent Mad Lib, in James' jurisdiction, has not been charged with fraud.Ooh! Another assumption.

See end note.
But I know a Mad Lib who thought it was perfectly OK, after he himself railed against Trump doing it.
Not the only factor.

You don't seem to be able to comprehend the fundamentals of the Trump fraud case. When one doesn't understand the basics one ought not to make comparisons that are not factual.probable hypothesis, based on the fact that a prominent Mad Lib, in James' jurisdiction, has not been charged with fraud

A theoretical (but reality based) question:
If an assessment of my property comes in and I sell that property at 2 x, 10x the assessed value, did I lie on a form claiming it was worth that, or was the assessment wrong?
Are you of the false impression that the fraud accusation against Trump is different in some significant way?Your video makes no sense - it claims Stewart OVERvalued his property by 800+%, and paid lower taxes because of it.

Assume appraisal.Tax assessments aren't intended to be real-time property valuations. That's what appraisals are for.
Assume appraisal.
It works in either scenario.
Assume it was an appraised value, not a tax assessment.I have no idea what "assume appraisal" means.
Assume it was an appraised value, not a tax assessment.
Of course.Appraisals are good faith estimates of what a property is likely worth in the moment, based on verifiable contemporary data like comparable sales. Do they account for a once-in-a-lifetime-sucker-buyer that is willing to overpay by multiples of the appraisal because they just "have to have" the property? No. They couldn't possibly.
And?
Of course.
So, much like Stewart, and Trump who believed the values they used, someone thought they were worth more/less.
I guess at the end of the day my comment would be that the government does not know the 'true' value of any piece of property.

Perhaps you should have waited a little longer so the double down on bad comparisons could have spinned its wheels in the mud a bit more.Pande (Buyer) may have a case for fraud in terms of the sale if he can show that Stewart supplied false legal documents setting "market value" so high when in fact it wasn't. Which is VERY different than say having a $1,000,000 telling the buyer the homes current value is $1,000,000 but telling the buyer that you would sell for no less than $20,000,000 (asking price).
On the other hand some seem to want to leave out the difference with the FPOTUS#45 case as a gotcha.
#1 This is a single transaction, for the New York AG to be involved New York Law 63(12) requires that the subject have shown persistent fraudulent and illegal business practices.
#2 Pande (or the AG in case of #1) in his/her civil suit would have to show that Stewart fraudulently misrepresented the facts in legal documents.
There is nothing illegal (as opposed to morally wrong) with saying "Hey, I have this $1 million dollar home I'll sell to your for $20 million" and someone else saying "I'll take it". That's on the buyer. On the other hand if Stewart falsified appraisals to overvalue the $1 million dollar property then the fraud is on Stewarts part.

Trump Ordered To Pay Over $350 Million In Civil Fraud Case As Judge Finds Ex-President Knowingly Committed Fraud
Judge Engoron’s ruling finds Trump and his co-defendants broadly liable for fraudulently misstating the value of their assets.www.forbes.com
I lost track of this one, can he repeal?
Either way, it's not a good result for him.
It doesn't matter. James and Engoron have claimed that Trump committed fraud whether there was a victim or not.The fraud proven against Trump is different in multiple ways.
Can you explain how OVER valuing a piece of real estate in NY results in LOWER taxes, as your video claimed?
