Trump is now being asked whether the valuations of a number of his properties are accurate.
Instead of answering yes or no, Trump is giving speeches about how and why he invested in various properties.
Again the judge asks Trump’s legal team to stop the speeches.
“I beseech you to control him if you can. If you can’t, I will,” Judge Engoron says.
That’s a reason not to call him at all, not a reason to only let the state ask him questions.
The more he talks the more likely it will go badly for them. Probably the right choice.
