MSNBC reports that Donald Trump invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination more than 440 times during his deposition Wednesday with New York Attorney General Leticia James in a civil suit relating to possible fraudulent accounting practices at the Trump Organization.
Trump took the Fifth for every question asked by the AG’s team in the civil case, meaning James can use the fact that Trump took the Fifth as an adverse inference against himself, because by legally using the Fifth, Trump must believe that his response would get him in possible trouble criminally..
