Mr. Trump justified the firing, which he said was effective immediately, by pointing to allegations that Ms. Cook may have falsified records to obtain favorable terms on a mortgage.

This just proves that satire is truly dead, considering this is exactly what Trump was found guilty of In New York...on all 34 counts.
