Arriving outside a New York courthouse on Monday, the former president Donald Trump engaged reporters in a combative exchange, accusing them of supporting a “sham” trial run by a politically motivated “racist” attorney general.
Arriving at the New York County Courthouse on Monday, the leader of the Republican Party got out of a convoy of black SUVs and went inside to file an appeal against a judge’s decision that, in his words, grossly undervalues his Mar-a-Lago property and other properties that prosecutors claim he has been inflating.

In a public address, President Trump expressed strong criticism towards Judge Arthur Engoron and New York Attorney General Letitia James, whom he accused of perpetuating a “witch hunt” that currently involves five active prosecutions in different state and federal courts.
“This is a continuation of the single greatest witch hunt of all time. We have a rogue judge who looked at properties that were worth a tiny fraction, one one-hundredth, a tiny fraction of what they actually are. We have a racist attorney general who’s a horror show who ran on the basis that she was going to get Trump before she even knew anything about me,” said the former president.
“This is what we have. It’s a scam, it’s a sham,” Trump added.

According to Alina Habba, a very influential attorney known for her aggressive approach in defending President Trump, she asserts that Judge Engoron’s judgement, which claims that the Trump real estate enterprise violated laws by allegedly inflating the value of its assets by hundreds of billions of dollars for strategic economic and tax benefits, disregards established legal precedents.
“At the end of the day, we have a judge who has told us that Mar-a-Lago is worth 18 million dollars. He’s failed to acknowledge what the Appellate Division has said, and we will continue to fight in hopes that there is some level of law and order in this country at this point. Although my faith in the system is wearing, I do have faith in Donald Trump,” Habba told reporters.

President Trump has thus far made appearances in four legal proceedings this year pertaining to matters concerning the 2020 elections, the handling of confidential data, and allegations of fraudulent bookkeeping. The individual in question is deriving support from his spouse, Melania, who is wholeheartedly endorsing his campaign for a second term in the White House. Additionally, he finds reassurance in the polls, which indicate that the numerous indictments have actually enhanced his popularity among Republican primary voters.
