Donald Trump is 'very happy' that Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg doesn't think there's enough evidence against him, source says

Donald Trump wasn't aware of the New York Times story about the unraveling of a Manhattan criminal probe against him, but he couldn't be more pleased with the idea that he may be off the hook.

A Trump source told Insider that he was very happy with the news about the new district attorney in Manhattan.

He is happy that Bragg sees the case for what it is.

The Times reported that Bragg, who took office in January, does not believe there is enough evidence to prove that the former president committed financial wrongdoing.

Bragg ordered his prosecutors to stop presenting evidence to the grand jury that has been hearing evidence in a Lower Manhattan courtroom since the fall.

The two lead prosecutors, Mark F. Pomerantz and Carey R. Dunne, had been encouraged by Bragg's predecessor to move toward an indictment.

The day after Bragg ordered the Pomerantz and Dunne to stand down, they resigned.

Insider reported last month that no executive from the C-Suite of The Trump Organization had flipped against their boss.

According to court papers, Allan Weisselberg would not cooperate in exchange for less prison time.

Michael Cohen was the only key witness.

Cohen had what it took to win an indictment regarding years worth of allegedly inflated financial statements that were used to secure $300 million in loans from one lender alone, according to Pomerantz and Dunne.

Bragg and his aides consulted with the two prosecutors and legal experts and decided that Cohen was not enough despite his wealth of documentation and detailed accounts of how Trump does business, the Times reported.

Cohen and a lawyer for Trump didn't say anything.

The investigation is continuing according to a spokeswoman for the Manhattan District Attorney. The investigation could once more move forward if new evidence emerges, according to the Times.

The civil investigation into Trump and his business is being delayed while Trump, his children and New York Attorney General appeal a judge's order that they sit for depositions.

The Manhattan district attorney's criminal probe is still being worked on by her office.
