NEW YORK — When Donald Trump left his namesake company for the White House and put his sons in charge, they learned a top executive was cheating on his taxes. Then they gave him a raise.
That head exec, former Trump Organization chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg, testified in Manhattan Supreme Court Friday that Eric and Donald Trump Jr. gave him a $200,000 bump after they learned the family business was footing the bill for his luxury lifestyle and dodging the tax man.
“Did the company reduce your salary one penny?” Assistant District Attorney Susan Hoffinger asked Weisselberg.
