Does he even have a legal team at this point? Or a revolving door of lawyers that come in, tell him how to save himself, to which he yells at them, and they nope out, to make room for the next lawyer to be ignored?

Kind of interesting Trump folded on this, and so fast. I mean it's the most obvious scam, but I'm still surprised he didn't fight it.
I imagine it's Rudy going on tv going on how the charity did nothing wrong, then the next second accidentally admitting the charity did break the law but it's difffeent cause Hilary for some reason?
Maybe throw in again unpaid parking tickets and how he needs to double check regarding the charity cause he just read up on this stuff last night
Anybody who joins this administration at this point is beyond stupid.
Our government is currently on fire but I'll be damned if I'm not busting out the popcorn and laughing while Trump's empire crumbles.

You can be pardoned at the state level, but no sitting governor wants that smoke.
Important note. I was referring to them being unpardonable by Trump, but you're right. My language was inaccurate.
Sincerely doubt Andrew Cuomo would pardon Trump people though.
If only he weren't ruining us along with him.
"Charity" is right, haha. Orange moron must be feeling the pressure. Hopefully the state attorney's office grabbed what evidence they could before it's destroyed.
They earnestly believe Trump is innocent and it's all a Dem scam. So yes. Beyond stupid. And people like Sanders are still all in, choosing to completely ignore all information.
Any NY governor would probably create an Reverse Pardon just for trumpe
""The smallest, a $7 foundation gift to the Boy Scouts that same year, appeared to benefit Trump's family. It matched the amount required to enroll a boy in the Scouts the year that his son Donald Trump Jr. was 11.""
I laughed out loud at this. What kind of cheapskate saves the receipts to illegally fund his kids boyscouts entry fee? How embarassing.

That changed to, "no way in hell" and "over my dead body", per Giuliani.
Not that he had any intention to sit down anyway.
The wealthiest tend to be.
Let's not forget now Trump was a massive grifter before even sniffing the presidency. This is a guy who'd hire contractors, waiters, dishwashers, etc. and find every reason under the sun to under pay or straight up not pay for the work they did on his properties. Over three decades he's had about 3,500 lawsuits brought against him for not paying his bills.
And yes, he's won quite a few of those cases, though it has more to do with his "Art of the Deal" being more of a war of attrition. He drags out these cases as long as he can to bleed his accusers dry of legal funds to the point where any money they recover at the end of the day won't be near what he owed originally or come at such great personal cost to the plaintiff that it becomes no longer feasible for them to continue pursuing a case.
All this to say that this isn't so much surprising as it confirms just how much of a cheap bastard he really is.
That's one of the things about Trump's handling of wealth--and perhaps wealthy people in general--that never fails to amaze me. The people that actually do the work for him he stiffs. But when it comes to being in a restaurant, served by a waiter, he makes a very public, very visible display to tip extravagantly and make sure everyone knows just how much he spent on that tip.
I still don't understand why stiffing people who work for you, but spending a bomb on a grandiose tip somehow makes sense.

...sleazebag AG Eric Schneiderman, who has since resigned over horrific women abuse, when I wanted to close the Foundation so as not to be in conflict with politics. Shady Eric was head of New Yorkers for Clinton, and refused to even look at the corrupt Clinton Foundation......
The Trump Foundation has done great work and given away lots of money, both mine and others, to great charities over the years - with me taking NO fees, rent, salaries etc. Now, as usual, I am getting slammed by Cuomo and the Dems in a long running civil lawsuit started by.....
....In any event, it goes on and on & the new AG, who is now being replaced by yet another AG (who openly campaigned on a GET TRUMP agenda), does little else but rant, rave & politic against me. Will never be treated fairly by these people - a total double standard of "justice."

Remember when Trump says his Foundation has given away lots of money "to great charities" that, according to WaPo, the charity owns two large portraits of Trump, for which Trump paid a combined $30,000 in Foundation money.

Damn we all called it down to a tee. His charity did good work, it's the Dem's faults, and Hillary Clinton. He's really predictable and boring anymore.
Some of the "charity" contributions:
$264,361 to the Central Park Conservancy, which went to restoring a fountain outside the Trump Plaza Hotel.
$20,000 for a portrait of Donald Trump which looks like it came from Dodgeball, which the charity later listed as an asset worth $700 in 2017 and $0 in 2018.
$25,000 to the Florida AG who was investigating Trump then conveniently dropped that investigation.
Best of all...
$7 to the Boy Scouts in 1989. That was also the cost of enrolling his son DT Jr that year.

Do they do anything more than motion to dismiss at the start and appeal if they lose?
You mean of course, " Barron" - Donald Trump Jr revealed that the only gifts his father gave him were regifted "Donald Trump" monogrammed articles like towels - and in one case the same robe DJT gave to his father the previous Christmas. He got it back.
I had got the date wrong in my since edited post, it was 1989 and it was DJT at the Scouts.
Ah. I was just approximating the math. But the second half of my post legit happened.
