“We are filing a lawsuit against Donald Trump for violating the law as part of his efforts to generate profits for himself, his family, and his company,” James said, who said Trump and his confidants were trying to “cheat the system, thereby cheating all of us.” In one example, James highlighted Trump’s property at 40 Wall Street. According to the suit, the Trump Organization received appraisals in 2010 and 2012 that valued the property at $200 million and $220 million, respectively.
James referred to Trump’s actions as the “the art of the steal,” a play on the title of his book, “The Art of the Deal.” In August, Trump sat for an hourslong deposition with James’ office in which he repeatedly invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.
