The Trump Organization was found guilty on 17 counts of tax fraud and other financial crimes this week, which the hosts of \u201cThe View\u201d promptly celebrated on Wednesday morning. But Whoopi Goldberg wasn’t too impressed by the possible fines the company faces, scoffing that the number was so low that she could share it herself.<\/p>\n
As a result of the verdict \u2014 which found the company guilty of falsifying business records and conspiracy along with tax fraud \u2014 the CFO of the organization will be doing reduced prison time for his testimony, and the company itself could be required to pay up to $1.6 million in fines.<\/p>\n
\u201cI could share that!\u201d Whoopi scoffed. She went on to add that, though the twice impeached former president himself was not a defendant in this particular case and thus wasn’t charged with anything, there is also a $250 million civil suit against him.<\/p>\n

Those proceedings are set to begin in October of next year. That said, between the ongoing cases and this verdict, Behar doesn’t expect it to be enough to convince Republicans to split from Trump.<\/p>\n \u201cAll they say is \u2014 like Mitch McConnell will say\u2026 ‘I will vote for whoever’s the Republican candidate’ but then ‘I don’t think he’ll be running.’ No, he will<\/em> be running, because that’s what’s gonna keep him out of jail,\u201d Behar said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Trump Organization was found guilty on 17 counts of tax fraud and other financial crimes this week, which the hosts of \u201cThe View\u201d promptly celebrated on Wednesday morning.
