Trump declines to answer questions in NY attorney general probe, following FBI search

Former President Trump on Wednesday said he declined to answer questions in the New York attorney general’s probe into his business and finances.

“I once asked, ‘If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?’ Now I know the answer to that question,” Trump wrote in a statement on his 45office.com website.

Trump said that he declined to respond to questioning under the advice of his legal team.
