“I think it’s clear now. The main purpose of calling Ivanka Trump to the stand was calling Ivanka Trump to the stand, to get the spectacle, to put the attorney general on the steps of the courthouse, to draw the TV cameras. Her testimony was largely neither here nor there,” Honig said.
“One of the so-called big moments was when Ivanka Trump testified about how when Deutsche bank made a loan to the Trump organization, Deutsche bank originally requested $3 million, that Donald Trump maintain his personal wealth, net worth at $3 billion. They negotiated it down to $2.5 billion. Big deal. Borrowers always try to negotiate down the amount of guarantee that they put up. I just didn’t see anything there. I don’t think you’re going to hear any reference to Ivanka Trump in the AG’s closing argument.” - CNN expert
