To: one guy in new jersey
sounds untrue

You are responding to a notorious Never Trumper, but according to NPC Fake News, it's true, but naturally no source is cited. But read Trump's statement at this link:

Trump invokes Fifth Amendment nearly 450 times in N.Y. AG’s civil probe of his business practices

"Now I know the answer to that question. When your family, your company, and all the people in your orbit have become the targets of an unfounded, politically motivated Witch Hunt supported by lawyers, prosecutors, and the Fake News Media, you have no choice. Accordingly, under the advice of my counsel and for all of the above reasons, I declined to answer the questions under the rights and privileges afforded to every citizen under the United States Constitution."

The only question Trump answered was about his name.

To: Fresh Wind

I saw the video of his deposition with Leticia James and her lead attorney.

Trump read a statement as a response to the first question and then for every other idiotic question he answered: ‘Same answer’

The questions were in the vein of: Did you falsify your financial statement in 20XX which then directly lead to a reduction of loan interest rates which amounted to a fraudulently savings of X millions of dollars?

I was almost screaming at the TV: You idiots! Everybody that has a mortgage knows that banks don’t base it on what you think your own house is worth, they rely on an appraisal. The New York attorneys were basically criminalizing anyone that had made an estimate on how much their property would sell for, if it differed from its tax assessment.

Very scary. If it can happen to President Trump, it can happen to you. Next time someone asks, what do you think your property is worth? if you answer you will be committing a crime.
