Ivanka Trump may not have been prepared for her arrival to court, but she was ready to take on the testimony in Donald Trump’s civil fraud case. New York Attorney General Letitia James has been an opponent of the Trump family but admits that Ivanka was “cordial” in her testimony, unlike her father, per CNN.
Despite her friendly demeanor, James questioned the credibility of Ivanka’s testimony, showing Trump’s daughter still may be entangled in the financial mess. “Ivanka Trump was cordial, she was disciplined, she was controlled and she was very courteous but her testimony raises questions with regards to its credibility, which will be a question for the finding of fact,” James said, according to CNN.

James believes that Ivanka was “enriched” by the fraud in which her father was allegedly involved. “And clearly you cannot distance yourself from that fact,” the attorney general said. “The documents do not lie. The numbers do not lie. And despite the fact that she was very, very nice, very friendly, the facts basically demonstrate the truth.”
As for Donald’s attorneys, they felt that bringing Ivanka into this was meaningless. “Ivanka, another child of the Trump family, was dragged into court again. It’s enough,” said Alina Happa, one of the former president’s attorneys (via NBC News). It’s unclear whether Ivanka will appear in court again, but there was clearly a wave of emotions going on both inside and outside the court.
