Former President Donald Trump said Monday that Democrats in Washington are pulling the strings on New York Attorney General Letitia James’ civil fraud prosecution against him to derail his campaign to topple President Biden.

Speaking to reporters at a Manhattan courthouse, Mr. Trump said the legal threat to his business empire is being directed by the Justice Department.

The no-jury trial will consider whether Mr. Trump should pay as much as $250 million in damages for allegedly manipulating the value of his properties and assets to gain financial advantages on loans and insurance policies.“There was no crime,” he said. “The crime is against me because we have a corrupt District Attorney, we have a corrupt Attorney General. They’re trying to damage me so that I don’t do as well as I’m doing in the election. Our country has gone to hell.
