Lacking his current presidential protections, Trump will face multiple investigations over whether he committed fraud in his businesses--and as an individual.

If Trump wins, he may be able to run out the statute of limitations, which for some crimes in New York state law is five to six years. Or, he could simply continue enjoying the DOJ's Office of Legal Counsel opinion that says a sitting president can't be indicted.
