Episode notes
Eric Trump Skips Testimony
- Eric Trump, a key figure in the Trump Organization during the relevant period, skipped his direct testimony in the New York fraud trial.
- This unusual move prompted Donald Trump to arrive on day 41, claiming Eric had already "testified perfectly" under cross-examination.
Trump's Misleading Claim
- Trump falsely claims he "won everything" in the appellate division, citing a 90% victory due to statute of limitations.
- However, the appellate division's ruling only removed Ivanka Trump from the case, not 90% of it.
Statute of Limitations Clarification
- The appellate division clarified that if past fraudulent financial statements were used within the statute of limitations period (six years), the claims are valid.
- Trump's argument that the statute of limitations starts with the initial fraudulent documents, even if used later, is incorrect.
