Trump's Deposition Has A Satisfying Link To ‘Succession’

Illustration by HuffPost; Photos: Getty, HBO Former President Donald Trump was deposed Wednesday morning by New York Attorney General Letitia James as part of her office’s civil investigation into his business dealings. Several articles and social media posts soon pointed out a deliciously fitting connection between the morning’s events and the celebrated HBO drama “Succession.” Trump's motorcade departing 28 Liberty St. on Wednesday in New York. John Minchillo via Associated Press The office of the New York state attorney general is at 28 Liberty St. in lower Manhattan — coincidentally, the same building where “Succession” films exterior shots of the headquarters of Waystar Royco, the fictional media conglomerate owned by the show’s patriarch Logan Roy. When news broke Monday night that the FBI raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate earlier that day, as part of a different federal investigation into whether Trump took classified records when he left the White House, it was hard not to be reminded of another recent FBI raid — albeit, a fictional one.
