So yes, some of this testimony — about capitalization rates and comps — is jargon-filled and not always sexy on the surface. But McConney is beginning to show why despite Chris Kise’s clever framing, the Trump Org.‘s valuation of its assets reflected knowing, intentional fraud. 9/
It’s one thing to say accounting standards are elastic or that real estate valuations are inherently flexible. But it’s another thing to lie or conceal, and with or without the fanfare accompanying the lead defendant’s attendance, that fraud is being unpacked in a downtown courtroom. I’ll be back there today.
