Yes, the statute of limitations is over for the Trump financial crimes revealed in the NYT today. [View all]

Civil fines could still be assessed, but not criminal charges.

HOWEVER, why should anyone think that similar crimes aren't happening even today? Why would DT have stopped doing something that was working so well?

I hope this story causes NY state, at least, to investigate this possibility.
