Trump Sons Testify in New York Civil Fraud Trial, Ivanka Appeals Judge's Order, and Jimmy Kimmel Reacts to Don Jr's Testimony
Donald Trump's adult sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, testified in a civil fraud trial in New York, where they sought to distance themselves from the financial records at the center of the case. The lawsuit, filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James, accuses the Trump family and their business of inflating the former president's net worth on financial statements to gain better terms. Trump Jr. stated that he trusted the company's accountants and signed the documents based on their expert opinion. Eric Trump acknowledged that the company had financial statements but claimed he did not know they maintained statements about their father's net worth. The trial is expected to continue with further testimony from other Trump family members.
