How bad must your legal problems be when four separate criminal felony cases against you *aren’t* the most pressing issue you have? Cause that’s the boat Donald Trump finds himself in. It’s not the federal election interference case, or the federal documents case, or the Georgia election case, or the New York hush money case but the New York fraud case that has him worked up now. The civil fraud case, brought by New York Attorney General Latitia James against the Donald, his adult sons, and the Trump organization, has taken a lot of of the former president’s attention lately.
Maybe it’s not shocking that it’s pulling Trump’s focus — it doesn’t look good for him, and the corporate “death penalty” is on the table. But in his rage-posting about the case, Trump shared a substack that spread far-reaching allegations about the AG, Tish James.
That article includes documents that share the personal home address of James. James has previously shared the racist threats she’s received because of this case.
As MeidasTouch notes, it’s not hard to see how this puts this AG in greater danger.
Trump is under a gag order that reportedly applies to him talking about members of Judge Engoron’s staff. Posting a link to the personal address of his prosecutor for his millions of followers to see is way out of line and puts James in danger.
The fraud trial against Trump is ongoing.
