Nothing unspools Trump as much as: 1) Questions about how much money he actually has and 2) Longtime enablers in the charade - like his accountants - suddenly deciding not to play ball anymore. And, unhinged, he goes after the prosecutors - because he’s both angry and afraid. 
All Trump’s got left, it seems, are personal attacks and claims of bias against the NYAG and the Manhattan DA. Nothing in this screed he just released amounts to much of an evidentiary defense one might expect from somebody ensnared in major financial fraud investigations.
And much of what Trump cites from Mazars is couched in Mazars’ own desire to essentially say: “Not a lot of GAAP here - we relied on Trump.”
Bonus point: Trump, almost 76, has spent *decades* conjuring billions of dollars of *brand value* he says adds to his wealth. But accountants don’t add intangible, squishy figures like that to net worth. Yet here’s Trump, insecure as ever about $$$, playing that old game again.
