James seeks to have Trump testify as part of her investigation into alleged tax fraud inside the Trump organization.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have come to the conclusion that I must continue my work as attorney general. There are a number of important investigations and cases that are underway, and I intend to finish the job,\u201d James wrote on Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>However, Trump said James\u2019 investigation is just a witch hunt and her focus should be on resurrecting the crime-ridden state.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">NEW!<\/p>\n<p>President Donald J. Trump:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLetitia James wants to politically weaponize her position as Attorney General instead of exemplifying impartiality and protecting the interests of all New Yorkers.

She didn\u2019t drop out of the race for a higher purpose, or to \u2018finish existing business.\u2019 She dropped out because her campaign was a complete failure, possibly because the citizens of New York saw how unfairly and viciously she and other highly partisan New York Democrat prosecutors were treating President Donald J. Trump. It\u2019s called prosecutorial misconduct,\u201d said the 45th president in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s comments come as James is seeking to depose the former president.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/sen-blumenthal-attends-communist-party-awards-ceremony\/\">Sen.
