Real estate is often in a class by itself when it comes to being a swamp of corruption; we got the worst possible kind of "businessman" next to an actual Mafia Don. It's no wonder Mueller is treating the Trumps like a crime family.

I get the distinct impression that the NY Times is dead serious about this, and that they've already lawyered up. The juxtaposition of these two paragraphs read like the Times giving the finger to Trump:

“All of this smells like a crime,” said Adam S. Kaufmann, a former chief of investigations for the Manhattan district attorney’s office who is now a partner at the law firm Lewis Baach Kaufmann Middlemiss. While the statute of limitations has long since lapsed, Mr. Kaufmann said the Trumps’ use of All County would have warranted investigation for defrauding tenants, tax fraud and filing false documents.

Mr. Harder, the president’s lawyer, disputed The Times’s reporting: “Should The Times state or imply that President Trump participated in fraud, tax evasion or any other crime, it will be exposing itself to substantial liability and damages for defamation.”

"If you call it a crime, we'll sue!"

"Trump participated in fraud, tax evasion and a ton of crime! Pound sand, Donny!"
