Video: Trump repeatedly pleads the 5th

Former President Donald Trump asserted his Fifth Amendment constitutional right against self-incrimination during a deposition with New York Attorney General Letitia James, according to a video of the testimony obtained on Tuesday exclusively by CBS News reporter Graham Kates.

Trump spoke to James' team last August amid the ongoing fraud investigation into the Trump Organization and members of the Trump family that run the business, all of whom James is suing for $250 million in civil damages. A trial is expected to commence in October.
