Back in June, Trump testified about prominent chef Geoffrey Zakarian pulling out of a lease to open a restaurant in Trump’s new hotel, opening in September at the Old Post Office Building.

Both Zakarian and D.C. chef José Andrés have backed out of plans to develop restaurants at the real estate mogul’s new establishment because of Trump’s past controversial comments about immigration.

Trump pushed back against both popular chefs, saying their decision to be “politically correct” have “caused me damages.”

"If they would have gotten out very quietly, I think it would have been better for everybody. They caused me damages," Trump said, according to transcripts filed in D.C. Superior Court.

"They made such a big deal out of it. And they didn't have to. … They wanted to be they thought politically correct by doing what they did. I think they made a mistake."

D.C. Superior Court Judge Brian Holeman, who’s presiding over the case, has denied a request from the real estate mogul to seal the deposition video, making the release of the video appear likely.

The footage features Trump being questioned about his inflammatory remarks about an Indiana-born federal judge’s Mexican heritage.

Trump acknowledged his comments about U.S. District Court Judge Gonzalo Curiel, but one of his lawyers objected to the questioning and asked how this was related to the case at hand.

"You're trolling for something that, frankly, might eventually be leaked to the media. … Bring these questions into a relevancy zone,” Trump lawyer Rebecca Woods said.

But Zakarian’s lawyer retorted: "We have no intention of leaking anything to the media.”
