Former President Donald Trump has returned to the Manhattan civil fraud trial that threatens to upend his real estate empire.
NEW YORK — Former President Donald Trump returned to a New York City courtroom Tuesday to watch the civil fraud trial that threatens to disrupt his real estate empire, renewing his claims that the case is a baseless and politically targeted distraction from his 2024 campaign. After attending the trial’s first three days earlier this month, the Republican front-runner initially planned a return to coincide with testimony by Michael Cohen, his attorney turned foe.
On Tuesday, Trump heard Kidder discuss his company’s finances, including a mention of a prior tangle with New York state’s lawyers: former Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s 2013 lawsuit over the now-defunct Trump University real estate seminar program. In explaining a spreadsheet, Kidder noted an entry about a loan that the Trump Organization took out to pay a $25 million settlement of lawsuits from Schneiderman and others alleging that Trump University defrauded students.
