The case cuts to the core of his public image as a prosperous businessman. Trump rose to fame as a developer of flashy properties like Manhattan’s Trump Tower and often boasts of his financial success - even though his companies have at times struggled. Taking control of Trump’s properties would pose a host of legal and logistical challenges for the attorney general’s office. Placing liens on them to ensure they are not sold or transferred and going after Trump’s liquid assets would be more straightforward.
During a 2023 deposition by the attorney general’s office, Trump said his companies had more than US$400 million in cash. In a social media post on Friday, he said he had almost US$500 million in cash, but intended to use much of it on his campaign.
