Former President Donald Trump had a tough day in court during his testimony on Monday in a New York civil fraud trial. The trial is a big deal because it could seriously affect Trump’s real estate business, which he’s been doing for a long time.
Trump’s business licenses and control over some of his most famous properties are at risk. But things got tricky when the prosecutors asked him about the company’s 2021 financial statement.
According to BBC, Trump said he was too busy with White House stuff in 2021 when Joe Biden was President. This confused everyone because Trump left the White House in January 2021 when his term ended.
A prosecutor, Kevin Wallace, asked him, Just to be clear, you weren’t the President in 2021, right? Trump said, No, I wasn’t the President in 2021.
This moment of confusion shows how complicated the trial is. They are asking hard questions about a financial statement from 2021, and Trump seemed confident about it, even though it surprised everyone.
This moment in the trial is a big deal, and it shows how intense and complex things are. Both sides are looking closely at everything Trump says.
The outcome of this trial is important, not just for Trump, but for the whole legal and political world. People will keep watching as the trial goes on.
This trial is getting a lot of attention, and it’s not going away anytime soon.
