This is the first time that Trump's long, tortured history with Deutsche Bank has been the subject of a *criminal investigation*.

And unlike Congress's [so far] unsuccessful subpoenas of Deutsche last year, this time the authorities have gotten their hands on the DB materials.
The @ManhattanDA appears to be investigating potential crimes involving bank fraud.

Michael Cohen testified that Trump routinely inflated his asset values as he sought financing.

Deutsche execs viewed Trump's valuations as wildly optimistic and sometimes reduced them by 70%.
Always interesting to see @DeutscheBank trending... ⬇️⬇️
