Trump Deposed in New York Civil Fraud Case — Invokes Fifth Amendment 400+ Times

Trump sits for a deposition in the New York Attorney General's civil fraud investigation into the Trump Organization. He invokes his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination more than 400 times, refusing to answer substantive questions about asset valuations, loan applications, and financial statements. In a 2016 campaign speech, Trump had mocked people who plead the Fifth, saying 'If you're innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?' The deposition becomes key evidence in the $354 million civil fraud judgment against him.
