Don Peebles, a prominent real estate tycoon from Florida and a former key fundraiser for President Barack Obama, has criticized New York Attorney General Letitia James for her civil fraud lawsuit against Donald Trump. During an appearance on Fox News, Peebles, who played a role in Obama’s campaigns in 2008 and 2012, described Trump’s business transactions with New York banks as a “victimless crime” and argued that James’ legal action was unwarranted.
“Had it not been [Trump], it wouldn’t have been brought because there’s never been a case like this before,” Peebles told host Neil Cavuto. “I think that is an example of why Trump continues to rise in the polls. They are making him into a martyr.”
“This case amplifies that it’s very difficult to do business in New York, and if you happen to be a wealthy, successful entrepreneur, watch out because the government can be used to weaponize [against] you, especially if you get out of line and do something that the far-left doesn’t like,” Peebles—who remains a major financial player in the Democratic Party—added.
“They will not hesitate to disrupt your business or, worse, put you in jail,” he noted further.
