纽约州总检察长蒂蒂夏·詹姆斯迎来了特朗普背书的挑战者，前总统唐纳德·特朗普正式“完全且彻底背书”共和党人萨里塔·科马蒂雷迪，以期将这位他长期以来的政治对手赶下台。
“我非常荣幸地背书‘美国优先’爱国者萨里塔·科马蒂雷迪，她正参选曾无比辉煌的纽约州下一任总检察长，”特朗普在周五的Truth Social帖子中写道，“在凯西·霍楚尔和‘全美最腐败的总检察长’蒂蒂夏·詹姆斯的治理下，纽约已经彻底完蛋了！”
特朗普此次背书科马蒂雷迪——他曾在2020年提名其出任美国纽约东区联邦地区法院法官——正值他持续施压要求以抵押贷款欺诈指控起诉詹姆斯之际，这也为他与这位曾将他告上法庭的民主党总检察长之间长达数年的恩怨增添了新的战场。

特朗普在批评詹姆斯时毫不留情。詹姆斯曾在2022年成功起诉特朗普及其特朗普集团，指控他们通过在财务报表中虚增资产价值以获取更优惠贷款，存在欺诈行为。
随后上诉法院撤销了对特朗普的近4.65亿美元经济处罚，裁定这笔巨额返还令违反了宪法中关于过度罚款的禁令。
“许多人都认为蒂蒂夏‘躲猫猫’詹姆斯是我国最糟糕的总检察长。她完全就是一场灾难，曾挑战凯西·霍楚尔竞选州长，却在民调中仅获得不到1%的支持率，随后便退出了竞选，还拉上了许多无辜的支持者垫背，”特朗普写道，“之后她又回头针对你我敬爱的总统（也就是我本人）和其他人展开政治迫害，然而纽约州的谋杀和其他暴力犯罪正全面失控，民众和企业正以创纪录的数量逃往其他州！”

他将詹姆斯与科马蒂雷迪进行对比，称赞科马蒂雷迪曾担任美国缉毒局办公厅主任、前联邦检察官，还曾为后来成为最高法院大法官的布雷特·卡瓦诺担任过书记员。
“另一方面，作为你们的下一任总检察长，萨里塔·科马蒂雷迪将不知疲倦地奋斗，确保法律与秩序，振兴我们的经济，支持我们的执法人员和第一响应者，拥护我们的军人/退伍军人，推进选举诚信，守护我们的边境安全，制止移民犯罪，维护我们的宪法，捍卫始终面临攻击的第二修正案权利，”特朗普写道。

特朗普或许已经背书达琳·格雷厄姆，但共和党参议院候选人并未退缩
此前一直直言不讳批评詹姆斯处理该州欺诈调查方式的科马蒂雷迪，对特朗普的背书表示感谢。
“2020年能获得总统提名出任联邦法官，我深感荣幸，今天能获得他的背书，我同样倍感荣幸。我正全力以赴争取所有纽约州民众的支持，在今年11月击败蒂蒂夏·詹姆斯，”科马蒂雷迪在X平台上写道。

New York Attorney General Letitia James has drawn a Trump-backed challenger, with President Donald Trump throwing his “complete and total endorsement” behind Republican Saritha Komatireddy in a bid to oust his longtime political foe.
“It is my Great Honor to endorse America First Patriot, Saritha Komatireddy, who is running to be the next Attorney General of the once wonderful State of New York,” Trump wrote in a Friday Truth Social post. “Between Kathy Hochul and the Most Corrupt Attorney General in the Country, Letitia James, it has gone to HELL!”
Trump’s endorsement of Komatireddy, who he nominated to U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York in 2020, comes as he continues pressing for James to be prosecuted over mortgage fraud allegations, adding another front to his years-long feud with the Democratic attorney general who once took him to court.

TRUMP’S JUSTICE DEPARTMENT SUES NEW YORK, OTHER BLUE STATES OVER TUITION FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
Trump did not mince his words in his criticism of James, who successfully sued Trump and The Trump Organization in 2022, accusing them of fraudulently inflating the value of assets on financial statements to obtain more favorable loans.
An appeals court later wiped out the nearly $465 million financial penalty against Trump, ruling the massive disgorgement award violated the Constitution’s prohibition on excessive fines.
“Letitia ‘Peekaboo’ James, is considered by many to be the WORST Attorney General in our Country. She is a Complete and Total Disaster, who tried running against Kathy Hochul for Governor, and got less than 1% of the Vote in the Polls, and QUIT, taking many innocent suckers down with her,” Trump wrote. “She then went back to her WITCH HUNT against your favorite President, (ME!), and others, yet Murder and other Violent Crime is RAGING OUT OF CONTROL in New York, as People and Businesses flee, in Record Numbers, to other States!”

He contrasted James to Komatireddy, touting her qualifications as Drug Enforcement Administration chief of staff, a former federal prosecutor, and that she clerked for Brett Kavanaugh, who went on to become a Supreme Court justice.
“On the other hand, as your next Attorney General, Saritha Komatireddy will fight tirelessly to Ensure LAW AND ORDER, Grow our Economy, Champion our Law Enforcement and First Responders, Support our Military/Veterans, Advance Election Integrity, Keep our Border SECURE, Stop Migrant Crime, Uphold our Constitution, and Defend our always under siege Second Amendment,” Trump wrote.

TRUMP MAY HAVE ENDORSED DARLINE GRAHAM, BUT GOP SENATE HOPEFULS AREN’T BACKING DOWN
Komatireddy, who has been outspoken against James’ handling of the state’s fraud investigations, thanked Trump for his endorsement.
“I was honored to be nominated to be a federal judge by the President in 2020 and I’m honored to receive his endorsement today. I’m working hard to win the support of all New Yorkers and defeat Letitia James this November,” Komatireddy wrote on X.
