Trump's Expert Witness Shreds NY's Fraud Case, Trump Lashes Out in Court
TL;DR
A prominent NYU accounting professor, Eli Bartov, who is being paid $1,350 an hour to testify in Donald Trump's defense in a civil fraud trial, praised Trump's financial records while criticizing the "absurd" lawsuit brought by the New York attorney general. Bartov argued that banks like Deutsche Bank would have conducted their own due diligence and not solely relied on Trump's allegedly inflated financial statements when making lending decisions. The trial, which has lasted 10 weeks, is one of six that Trump faces as he campaigns to return to the White House.
