Former president Donald Trump had constantly accused that the investigation against his companies was a “Witch hunt,” but now he takes an extra step by suing New York Attorney General Letitia James .
The former president accuses the New York prosecutor of having political motives to persecute him , in addition to asking the Northern District Court of New York to stop the investigation.
He even wants a judge to decide to “protect” the Trump Organization and himself against any lawsuit civil or judicial.
Last day 15, Trump in a statement accused James of attempting to turn his position on “a political weapon” against him .
“Instead of continuing to waste his time and taxpayer resources on a long and continuing witch-hunt against the Republican Party and against me, should focus its attention on helping to resurrect what was once the great state of New York, ”wrote Trump, who consistently qualifies all legal action against him as part of a supposed “witch hunt.”
In this line, the dem Anda assures that the prosecutor’s mission “is guided solely by political animosity and the desire to harass, intimidate and retaliate against a private citizen whom she sees as a political opponent.”
The prosecutor’s office maintains an investigation against Trump and his company “Trump Organization” considering that the former president He inflated the value of his properties to guarantee obtaining financing.
According to local media, James wants to question the ex-president as part of the investigations.
