"Trump's Last Defense: His Testimony in Civil Fraud Trial"

Attorneys for Donald Trump have announced that he will be called as the last defense witness in his civil fraud trial on December 11, with his son Eric Trump scheduled to testify on December 6. The defense has previously stated that it will conclude presenting its case by mid-December. Meanwhile, a Trump Organization executive testified that the company no longer compiles personal financial statements for the former president, as they are not required by any lenders at this time. The trial has already found Trump and his co-defendants liable for fraudulently inflating personal documents to obtain better loan terms. Additionally, the judge ruled against allowing testimony from the independent monitor appointed in the case, stating that it would be untimely and inappropriate.
