Bragg wasn't backward in showing his satisfaction in the case that Trump even could be said to have been a bit
cleansed by the testimony of some. Including Weisselberg who said his fraud had nothing to do with Trump.

[...]Jurors were told about an internal "clean up" conducted in 2017 at the Trump Organization after Trump became president. The company hired an outside lawyer to examine its tax practices. Her review led the company to cease many of the practices that led to these criminal charges, multiple witnesses testified.
[...]
In a statement, the Trump Organization pointed to Weisselberg's testimony that he'd "betrayed" the company's trust and "acted 'solely' for his 'own personal gain'," and said: "The notion that a company could be held responsible for an employee's actions, to benefit themselves, on their own personal tax returns is simply preposterous." 

Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg praised the jury and called the verdict "a very just result." 

"The former president's companies now stand convicted of crimes. That is consequential. It underscores that in Manhattan, we have one standard of justice for all," Bragg told reporters outside the courtroom.

"...shits collects income from his companies how ..? In a vacuum?"

Possibly Bragg could have implicated Trump more if his heart was more into it.
Or perhaps it is more the law. Only Bragg and maybe Trump might know for sure.

And even though he ripped off New York City and the State of New York, I'm sure his treatment of his federal tax obligation(s) was all on the up and up...

Stand back, and stand by.
