  1. Family Fraud. At some point, someone is going to be left holding the bag.

  2. Not saying he’s telling the truth but if I did that many drugs I probably couldn’t recall much either.

  3. ‘I don’t recall’ doesn’t go over well in a bench trial.

  4. I don’t recall.
    Is your name Donald Trump Jr?
    I don’t recall.

  5. Someone tell him he probably won’t be able to get blow in prison.

  6. Why didn’t he deny it like he does in social media? His dad is on trial and he could provide testimony to prove that he is innocent, but he “Doesn’t recall”… not a very convincing witness for the defense.

  7. ah, yes, The Peter Gabriel Defense:

    I don’t remember, I don’t recall, I got no memory of anything at all…

    who saw that coming?

  8. I’ve got $3 that says Eric tries the same but says “Total Recall” instead.

  9. Jr won’t plead the 5thA b/c he was advised to simply say: “I don’t recall.” The judge already issued a guilty verdict, so all that remains is how much in damages must be paid.

    If anyone lies under oath, then they’re dumber than we thought b/c this isn’t a criminal trial, and the judge already issued his tentative ruling. It’s in the judge’s hands, and no doubt Trump will appeal.

  10. I wonder if he recalls killing a staged elephant and cutting off its tail just for a photo-op.

  11. Any decent general manager (whether at a Burger King or the Executive VP at the Trump org – Trump’s son) knows what goes into the financial statements, period. Profitability is the key to growth and survival of any company. You can bet your bottom dollar that even if the accountants consolidated everything, Trump junior (of course directed by his father as a surrogate) was 100% in charge of the key decisions that shaped those documents.

  12. they don’t remember much about the business they work in every day

  13. I imagine we will hear a lot of that from all of them.

  14. In the real world. Ignorance is not a defence. And a refusal to answer a question (The 5th) may be used against you in the future.
    Joint Enterprise (Similar to RICO) has teeth in not America.

  15. Oh but *Joe Biden too old ‘cause he don’t remember something blah blah blah*

  16. Alina looks up from her game of Among Us to beam with pride.

  17. Fuck Jeff Sessions and Congress for normalizing “I do nawt recawwwwl” as somehow an acceptable response under questioning. When it’s your fucking job to know something, saying you don’t recall should be treated as perjury.

  18. Donald Trump Jr before testifying: *”Watch this guys, ima fuckin walk in there and show them WHO is fucking WHO. You’ll see, I’m gonna kick their fuckin ASSES with UNASAILABLE proof. Watch me make them cry”*

    Donald Trump Jr. **during** trial: “I’m **WAY** too fucking stupid to have remembered something that happened yesterday let alone something that happened during the shit-tons of things wrong my entire family did with finances from our fraud-centered-businesses”.

    Republican voters: “Trump jr. just **TRASHED** Democrats! HAH!”

    Can we like….***be fucking done with this, please? Some of us have reality to get back to one of these days.***

  19. I was in charge of everything and had no understanding of how the money worked. It’s a bold strategy Cotton, let’s see if it pays off.

  20. What I love is the fact in a civil trial “I don’t recall” only prevents a perjury charge, it can still negatively impact the judgement. So he said “I don’t recall” I heard “CHA-Ching!” 💸💸💸

  21. I don’t recall why my accountant said I had an extra $1,000 in charitable contributions and the IRS says IDGAF, you are getting fined.

    I don’t recall why my accountant said I didn’t file a 1099 for me, the IRS says IDGAF, you are getting fined at best and going to jail for tax fraud at worst.

    I don’t recall why my real estate agent said my house was worth 2x its actual value allowing me to use it as fake collateral in another deal and the FBI says IDGAF, you are getting convicted.

    Amazing how that “I don’t recall” works out for the rest of us.

  22. The cow says “moo”

    The duck says “quack”

    The Trump says “I don’t recall”

  23. Sir do you know how fast you were going?

    I don’t recall

    You were doing 100 in a 15MPH school zone!!

    Hmm, I don’t recall..

  24. I don’t recall, it was the accountant, it was the accounting firm, I don’t know. Let’s just nip this in the butt and fine them 250 million apiece oh yes refer their legal teams to the board for disbandment.

  25. Coked up, drunk,and stupid is no way to go through life, son.

  26. I’d love to see the mocking smile smacked off this druggie’s moronic face.
