Trump Stepped Down From His Trust After Indictment

The Messenger: “On Jan. 15, 2021, Trump signed a document that would reappoint him as trustee on the day that President Joe Biden took his place. But Trump only returned to that position for fewer than seven months, precipitously resigning from that post within days of Weisselberg’s indictment and resignation.”

“The revelation, largely buried by the spectacle of Trump’s contentious and pugilistic testimony, showed the former president’s apparent scrambling to distance himself from the entity holding his assets — shortly after New York prosecutors charged Weisselberg and the Trump Organization with dozens of financial crimes.”
