SEMANA: You were accused of fraud for a million-dollar real estate scam that allegedly involved nearly $40 million. The charges against you were dropped, but what was your responsibility in this case?
**SEMANA:** Mr. Trump, you were recently ordered to pay a substantial fine and banned from doing business in New York real estate following a civil fraud trial [[1](https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-letitia-james-arthur-engoron-new-york-fraud-case-1960333)]. While you are appealing this decision, many are questioning how you, as a prominent business leader, could be involved in such dealings. What would you say to those who believe this verdict reflects a pattern of unethical behavior?
Do you think this ruling undermines public trust in the real estate industry, and if so, how can that trust be rebuilt?
