Newly released video obtained by CBS News provides the first look at Donald Trump’s deposition last summer in New York Attorney General Letitia James’ civil fraud investigation. “Wearing a dark blue suit, red tie and American flag lapel pin, sitting in front of a camera in a downtown Manhattan conference room, Trump answered ‘yes’ when asked by James if he was familiar with the rules for giving a deposition. But as the questioning about his finances began in earnest, the former president—and now candidate for that same office—invoked the Fifth Amendment and continued to do so for nearly four hours.”“Trump did so more than 400 times during the course of the full interview, according to according to a New York Attorney General court filing.”
