CNN's Legal Expert Dropped a Major Truth Bomb About Trump's Huge Civil Case Victory
Trump not only repaid the loans in full, but the very bank that New York Attorney General Letitia James accused him of defrauding actually testified in his defense. In other words, there was no crime and no victim.
[PJMedia.com] CNN's top legal analyst admitted he wasn't the least bit surprised when a New York appeals court threw out more than $500 million in penalties against President Donald Trump and his business empire, gutting what many have called a politically motivated case brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James.

"The finding here—it's a very long, complicated ruling—but the bottom line is, while the finding of liability against Donald Trump can stand for now, at least, the damages award, which started at $350 million, with interest gets up close to $500 million, that is thrown out."
Honig noted that the key problem with the civil case against Trump was the absence of any actual victims. "The core reason for that ruling, according to the judges, is essentially that there was not enough of a showing here that there were actual victims," he said.
