“I’m just so shattered. It’s awful, it’s unjust, it’s absurd. I can’t believe this. They stole so much. The self-dealing. The perjury. They all know about it,' Stephanie Winston-Wolkoff told The Daily Beast
But that’s less than the $1 million the AG had accused the Trump family of misspending in nonprofit funds by booking events at the Trump International Hotel Washington D.C.’s vastly overpriced rooms.
Winston-Wolkoff, who wrote a tell-all book about her time as first fady Melania Trump’s adviser, lamented that Donald Trump had slithered away again.Elizabeth Hempowicz, director of public policy at the Project on Government Oversight, described the settlement as “the kind of thing that helps fuel this public perception that there are two systems of justice: one for the everyman and another for the rich and powerful.
“As the settlement states, the PIC continues to dispute all of the Attorney General’s claims and remains confident that had this case gone to trial, the PIC would have prevailed based on the evidence,” he said in a statement.“It would have required the PIC’s insurer to spend double the amount of this insurance settlement just to try this case to verdict, and thus this modest settlement payment only makes common sense,” he added.
