Donald Trump Jr. reacted to being found liable for fraud in New York by insisting he was punished for his famous name.
During an appearance on The Charlie Kirk Show on Wednesday, Trump objected to New York Judge Arthur Engoron's ruling that found him, his father, and others liable for fraudulently manipulating the value of assets.
"I've never seen anything even like it," Trump said. "I mean, this is sort of like the start of the Bolshevik Revolution. We don't just we don't like you. So we're going to confiscate property. We're going to do these things."

He complained because the judge had ruled Mar-a-Lago had a value of around $18 million.
"It's a pretty spectacular place, probably one of the finest homes anywhere in the world," he opined. "And there's a lot within half a mile. That's two point two acres, not on the ocean with nothing on it, just jungle. It's on the market for $150 million. But Mar-a-Lago is worth 18."
Trump also complained that he and his brother Eric were included in the $250 million lawsuit New York Attorney General Letitia James brought.
"We're going to bring Don Jr. and Eric Trump into it, even though all of the witnesses who have testified said, hey, we had nothing to do with the statement of financial condition," he insisted. "But hey, our last name is Trump. So, we have to be punished."
"It's it's absolute lunacy," he added. "And again, going through it last night with — I'm like, explain it to me because I don't — I don't even understand. I've never even heard of this before in business, in law, in lawsuits."
