Donald Trump
Former President Donald Trump.
  • It's the third week of defense testimony at the Trump civil fraud trial in Manhattan.
  • Reps from Deutsche Bank, which NY says was defrauded, described actually prospering thanks to Trump. 
  • On Wednesday, internal documents showed the bankers practically swooning over Trump's billions.

Deutsche Bank executives practically swooned over Donald Trump's real estate fortune, according to internal documents made public by the defense in his New York civil fraud trial.

Trump was seen as a wealthy, fiscally-responsible "whale" who could open doors to his own billions and those of his "network" of fellow moguls, the documents revealed.
