"Two Trump entities, The Trump Corp. and Trump Payroll Corp., were convicted last month of 17 felonies, including tax fraud and falsifying business records.

Under New York law, the most the companies can be fined is about $1.6 million, a penalty the Trump Organization can easily afford."

.

This is what happens since Republicans made secret bribery of politicians legal; the penalties are so low that's it's just a minor business cost to break the law.

The article also makes this clear.

"This conviction was," Bragg said outside of the courtroom Friday, "was consequential, the first time ever for criminal conviction of former President Trump's companies, and indeed I would go so far as to say the first time ever for any former president certainly in my lifetime."

But, Bragg added, the fine isn't enough of a penalty.

"I want to be very clear " we don't think that is enough. Our laws in this state need to change in order to capture this type of decade-plus systemic, egregious fraud," Bragg said."

SO glad rwingers finally got that "businessman for Pres" that they always wanted.

And sure enough, he ran the Gov just like he did his corporations.

Like the criminal that he is.

This is all just theater.....
