What’s amazing is that the supposed act of malfeasance by cook was mortgage fraud (for which detailed particulars have yet be put forward), while Trump has been involved in over 4,000 law suits over just the last three decades including 100’s of civil and criminal fraud cases which has either settled or lost.
This includes the New York civil fraud conviction in which the Trump Family and various of its business entities were found guilty of fraudulent bookkeeping to avoid taxation and defraud lenders.
