'Last 5 Minutes Were Outstanding': Judge Hands Down Shocking Ruling In NY Case Against Trump

On Monday, leading 2024 presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump announced that far-left Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron has conceded that the statute of limitations invalidates "80 percent" of far-left New York Attorney General Letitia James' $250 million dollar lawsuit against him.

"I think that was very good. That last five minutes was outstanding because the judge essentially conceded that the statute of limitations is in effect, therefore about 80% of the cases over," Trump said.

This comes after Trump attended the first day of his "civil fraud trial" from far-left New York Attorney General Letitia James's $250 million lawsuit against him.

Trump, alongside his lawyers Chris Kise and Alina Habba, went before a smug, smirking, and laughing far-left Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron who has previously ruled that Trump’s stunning beachfront Palm Beach, Florida Mar-a-Lago estate, the Crown Jewel of Palm Beach, is only worth $18 million dollars, a claim real estate insiders have called “utterly delusional.”

Justice Engoron has sided with far-left New York Attorney General Letitia James and found Trump, his family, and his business empire, the Trump Organization, liable for fraud.

Before entering the court room, Trump spoke to reporters for nearly 10 minutes, declaring, "There was no crime, the crime is against me."

"The crime is against me because we have a corrupt District Attorney and we have a corrupt Attorney General," Trump explained.

"This has to do with election interference, plain and simple," Trump said of the lawsuit.

"This is a continuation of the single greatest witch hunt of all time. It's a scam. It's a sham. In the meantime, people are being murdered all over the sidewalks of New York," Trump said.

"It’s a witch hunt and a disgrace.  It’s all run by a corrupt Attorney General," Trump added.

During Trump's time in court, Letitia James kept her eyes on Trump at all times, creepily staring him down.

Letitia James spoke to reporters, as well, saying, "Today we will prove our other claims."

"My message is simple - No matter how powerful you are, no matter how much money you think you may have, no one is above the law. And it is my responsibility and my duty and my job to enforce it," James added.

Before heading into court, Trump wrote on a post on his top-rated social media platform, Truth Social, "JUST ARRIVED AT THE COURTHOUSE TO FIGHT A CORRUPT & RACIST ATTORNEY GENERAL, AND A ROGUE, OUT OF CONTROL, TRUMP HATING JUDGE, WHO REFUSES TO FOLLOW THE APPELLATE COURT DECISION WHICH KNOKS OUT 80% OF THIS SHAM CASE."

"THIS IS THE CONTINUATION OF THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME. ELECTION INTERFERENCE," Trump added.
