But god forbid we prosecute a wealthy white woman for perjury. That would just be beyond the pale.

    Taking aim at Ivanka, Engoron wrote: “She consistently denied recalling the contents of documentary evidence that confirmed that she actively participated in events, even after she was confronted with the evidence.”

    He later added: “The Court found her inconsistent recall, depending on whether she was questioned by OAG [New York attorney general’s office] or the defense, suspect. In any event, what Ms. Trump cannot recall is memorialized in contemporaneous emails and documents; in the absence of her memory, the documents speak for themselves.”

    Seems like she didn’t inherit her father’s “perfect memory”.

      I think she got a Trump family genes for perfect memory, just look at how she’s able to selectively forget events on demand, just like her dad. It’s pretty well documented that the Trumps have a memory condition where they selectively forget things as soon as they’re asked to raise their right hand

        Why wasn’t this brought up by the prosecution? 'oh you don’t recall? I thought you had a perfect memory as you repeatedly stated before this trial. Are you lying about that or about this?"

          A few seconds past the timestamp I linked:

          As good as my memory is, I don’t remember that. But I have a good memory.

          So you don’t remember saying you have one of the best memories in the world?

          I don’t remember that.

            Heh. Can you imagine if Biden said “I don’t remember” about anything. We’d have wall to wall news for months wondering about dementia. Fuck we have that news even if he doesn’t say it.

              We need to start bringing these cheap giant TVs to his “rallies” and queue up all the stupid lies and contradictions he’s said on camera and play them on repeat.
