Jimmy Kimmel hit Trump with a great joke saying Attorney General Letitia James will get him for New York assets.
Kimmel said:
Financial fraud is not a victimless crime. He was involved in a huge amount of fraud, it wasn’t just a simple mistake, like Eric. He also said that if she doesn’t come up with the money, she could take over Trump Tower. It turns out that one of the downsides of putting your name on everything you own is that everyone knows who owns it.
She could do it too. It would be nice to see a woman take over her possessions for once.

When you’re attorney general, they let you do it, you don’t even ask. just seize them, you take them from the property. Trump must make $355 million available to prevent his properties from being seized.

AG James could act on Trump like a B word. Just like he boasted on the Access Hollywood tape. It would be fitting to see Trump’s name come out of Trump Tower. Supposedly Trump’s crown jewel.
Kimmel’s joke was absolutely killer because it shows how the tables have turned against Trump. AG James is serious about seizing Trump’s assets and time is running out. AG James won’t wait. If Trump doesn’t pay the New York attorney general, he is ready to act.
