Trump lawyers: His inflated property values were just 'guesses,' not lies
-
Trump's lawyers argue his inflated property values weren't meant as official appraisals, just his own relative guesses.
-
They claim Trump's buildings are "unicorn properties" with no comparable valuations.
-
The defense draws a distinction between bank-commissioned appraisals and Trump's statements of financial condition.
-
They argue appraisals are an "art, not a science" allowing for subjective valuations.
-
They point to an appraiser's fluctuating valuations of 40 Wall Street to undermine allegations Trump lied.
