There’s no way around it, Ivanka Trump is going to have to testify in Donald Trump’s civil case and it’s going to challenge her loyalty to her dad. Even though she’s been inching further and further away from the former president’s political ambitions for 2024, Ivanka knows very well how her dad operates the Trump Organization after serving as his executive vice president before her White House years.
Ivanka, who was able to get herself excused as a defendant in the New York business fraud case, will essentially be testifying against her father and her brothers, Donald Jr. and Eric Trump. Legal analyst Glenn Kirschner, host of Justice Matters, believes the situation is “about to go from bad to worse” for the former president as his financial secrets are revealed.
“Do you really think there’s a chance that Don Jr, and Eric and Ivanka can get through their sworn testimony without lying, without perjuring themselves?” Kirschner questioned on a recent episode. “After all, they’re going to be testifying about their business practices, their father’s business practices, after Judge Engoron has already granted partial summary judgment. In other words, the judge has already found that there was massive business fraud committed by Donald Trump and others at The Trump Organization.”

They are hostile witnesses, they will be cross-examined by New York Attorney General Letitia James’ team,” he added. For Ivanka, it will be the ultimate test of loyalty and anyone who knows Donald Trump understands that loyalty is above all, everything to him.
