    The left turned violation of bank policy into a felony, so that's one way that they redefined what a "convicted felon" is.

    It's called "falsifying business documents", or is it only Fraud when
    someone besides Trump does it?

    Property appraisals can vary. I bought my house for $50k 9 years ago and now Zillow says it's worth $120k.

    If I apply for a loan and use my house as collateral, the bank might approve me for a $70k loan. And long after I pay off the loan, with interest, some Democrat who looks like a horse might pull out a calculator and say "His house is only worth $50k! Put him in jail!"

    didn't include him that many MAGAs quit refering to Hunter Biden, a previous target of their scorn, as a "convicted felon" and started *defending* Hunter's actions.

    That's why I DID NOT VOTE for Hunter Biden!

    That was actually part of my quote, where I was pointing out how MAGAs
    thought it was so important to change the definition of "convicted felon"
    that they enen quit calling Hunter one. We KNOW that was a big change for them.

    When you inflate the value of several properties over a 4 year period by
    as much as $500 million dollars to lenders than you do in the same tax
    year, it looks a bit sus.

    When your attorney testifies that you do so to inflate assets when it
    serves your purposes, as when trying to make Forbes' wealthiest list,
    and deflate them with the specific purpose to reduce taxes.

    And, the jury wasn't all democrats.

    The attorney general needs to get a life. There's nobody else being charged with "appraisal fraud." She does nothing to help crime victims. Nothing.

    All she's done throughout her "career" is combat her political adversaries. She was behind the prosecution of Andrew Cuomo, and she even ran for governor in the Democratic primary. She sued Trump over his border orders. She sued the NRA.

    Does that sound a little political to you?
