    Likely, the lawyer asked Trump, and given Trump’s tendency to be a liar, he provided false information to the lawyer. I feel like that is what happened.

      They knew was lying about the sizes of his buildings to add value to them and that this was in the information his lawyers had provided. This demonstrates how Trump committed fraud and to what extent.

        Yeah, I already read it. I just doubt the lawyer could be so dumb to provide false evidences like this. But could be, yeah… but making false bills of expensive furniture would be more effective, saying there are more floors is too easy to prove it’s not true in a court…

          That’s the thing: in their heads, they’re not lying. To them, it’s the truth. That’s how delusional they are.

          The evaluator button says, “72,” so the building has 72 floors. That’s the truth to them, even if you can only count 63 floors.
