Fischetti spoke on the charges to the Associated Press, saying: The charges are absolutely outrageous and unprecedented, if indeed the charges are filed. This is just to get back at Donald Trump.

He added that prosecutors are "rude, nasty, and totally biased in the way they are treating lawyers, representatives, and some of the wonderful long-term employees and people within the Trump Organization."
