In addition to the four politically motivated criminal indictments against Donald Trump, there are over a dozen civil cases against Trump.
A case in Democrat-led New York appeared doomed from the start that accused Trump and his company of committing fraud while building his real estate empire.
Judge Arthur Engoron ruled that Trump deceived banks, insurers, and others by massively overvaluing his assets and exaggerating his net worth on paperwork.
Engoron ordered that some of Trump’s business licenses be rescinded as punishment.
It’s unlikely that Trump wants to do further business in New York so the consequences likely will have no impact on him.
Despite this ruling, Trump recently learned that he has a substantial 10-point lead over his anticipated rival for the 2024 White House race, according to recent polling.
A Washington Post-ABC News poll indicates that Joe Biden is struggling to engage with the public.

Biden’s overall job approval rating has plummeted by 19 points, with his ratings for managing the economy and immigration hitting career lows.

Negative ratings were also received for gas and energy prices (87 percent) and food prices (91 percent). (Trending: Thanks to Biden, America Is Speeding Toward Great Depression)
