Trump says people are so angry about investigations into him they are 'fleeing' New York

Donald Trump has claimed without providing evidence that people are leaving New York “in record numbers” because they are upset at the state’s investigations into his family business.

“New York State and its Governor, Andrew Cuomo, are now proud members of the group of PRESIDENTIAL HARASSERS,” Mr Trump tweeted on Tuesday evening. “No wonder people are fleeing the State in record numbers. The Witch Hunt continues!”

The president’s criticism of Mr Cuomo came in an apparent response to a New York Times report that New York attorney general Letitia James’ decision to issue subpoenas to two banks for documents related to a number of Trump hotel projects.

The request to Deutsche Bank and Investors Bank was prompted by congressional testimony last month of Mr Trump’s former personal lawyer Michael Cohen, who told lawmakers his ex-client fraudulently inflated his assets in financial statements.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Face it, that seems to be the most repeated line when describing what Trump says.
