    Question...

    If the AG has significant evidence, what's the purpose of going public with this without announcing any charges? I get that they're trying to compel them to make a deposition, but if I had to guess, the Trumps are now going to stall stall stall and by the time they do make any depositions, they'll either plea the 5th or conveniently not recall a heck of a lot. 
    This is a civil investigation, not criminal.

    Isn't there a criminal fraud investigation as well?

    Yes, that is a different case.  Weisselberg and the Trump org is under indictment.

    Would the civil penalties be monetary only?

    Not necessarily.  There could be consent orders that affect future business practices, reporting requirements to the state, judgments, etc.  But not jail time or anything else that is criminal in nature.

    Worse case, the state could dissolve the business, but that would be highly unusual and very dramatic.

    I guess that's sort of what I'm getting at.. like all this drama about all this evidence, realistically, what's the worst that could happen to this guy?

    The worst thing is he loses his ability to operate a business in NY, if he is a principle.  But I can tell you that consent orders are very painful.  So yeah, not nearly as bad as a criminal charge, but not great.

  • Here's a good synopsis of what POOTWH is facing on the legal front and why he'll either run for office or quid pro quo Deathsantis to stay out of the race. And prison.

    "In the past, Trump's approach to any legal trouble has been to brush it off as some sort of political gamesmanship," said Jimmy Gurule, a former Justice Department official in the George H.W. Bush administration. "But these are investigations on multiple levels, examining multiple courses of conduct. These are exceedingly serious matters. The big difference is that he is no longer president and the mantle of immunity is no longer available to him."

    Fresh revelations in New York court underscore Trump's legal peril on multiple fronts (msn.com)
