Trump has more legal problems than congressional investigations

New York attorneys subpoena eight years of Trump tax returns
BY OLIVIA BEAVERS AND NAOMI JAGODA - 09/16/19 03:23 PM EDT

Prosecutors in New York are reportedly escalating their efforts to obtain President Trump's tax returns as part of their investigation into hush money payments made to women who have alleged affairs with the president.

State prosecutors from the Manhattan district attorney’s office sent subpoenas late last month to Trump's accounting firm, Mazars USA, in an attempt to obtain eight years of the president's personal and business tax filings as part of a broader effort to analyze his financial records, The New York Times reported Monday.

The office is investigating payments made to adult-film actress Stormy Daniels, who has claimed to have received payments in exchange for her silence during the 2016 election after allegedly having an affair with Trump.

Former Trump personal lawyer Michael Cohen testified earlier this year that he delivered the payment to Daniels at the behest of Trump and said he had been reimbursed by the
president and his organization.

But Trump also must sit for a deposition in the Summer Zervos lawsuit sometime before the end of the year. Guess what? He will lie under oath or admit to what she said happened. Will we see what he said before the trial? Before 11/2020?
