New York Governor Kathy Hochul has assured property developers that they will not be targeted for inflating property valuations to secure better loans, a practice for which Donald Trump was recently prosecuted in a case led by Letitia James and ruled by Judge Engoron. This assurance has sparked controversy, with critics labeling the prosecution of Trump as a partisan political move. The criticism hinges on the assertion that such practices are common among property developers, suggesting that Trump's case was singled out for political reasons. Various commentators, including Senator Ted Cruz and personalities like Kevin O'Leary, have voiced concerns over the implications of Hochul's statements, arguing that it either sets a precedent for selective prosecution based on political affiliations or confirms the political motivation behind Trump's legal troubles.
