Trump reacts to his sons' testimony in fraud trial: 'So sad to see them persecuted'

Donald Trump has responded to watching his children being grilled in court.

Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. gave back-to-back testimonies in their father's business fraud trial this Thursday and denied having any involvement in the Trump Organization's financial statements, according to reports.

“As a trustee, I have an obligation to listen [to] those who are expert — who have an expertise of these things,” Trump Jr. said.

Eric Trump, who is Donald Trump's second son, also denied involvement, testifying that he “never had anything to do with the statement of financial condition.”

In a post to Truth Social this Thursday, the former president reacted to the testimony of his sons.

"So sad to see my sons being PERSECUTED in a political Witch Hunt by this out of control, publicity seeking, New York State Judge, on a case that should have NEVER been brought. Legal Scholars Scream Disgrace!" Trump wrote.

"My $WORTH is far GREATER than on Financial Statements, plus they contain a full DISCLAIMER CLAUSE telling readers of this information to do their own due diligence and analysis," Trump continued.

"ALSO, their Star Witness admitted on the stand that he LIED, a big story not covered by the press. Banks and Insurance Companies made money, not even a minor default, and there were NO VICTIMS, except for the people getting mugged and murdered on the sidewalks of New York while our Corrupt Attorney General sits on her a** in Court all day watching the Trump family be abused by a Trump Hating Judge that said a Billion Dollar house is only worth $18,000,000 Million Dollars!!!"
