Ivanka is likely to be less coy about her father’s business dealings, according to Mary, who believes that the heiress will “tell the truth and throw him under the bus,” since she’s “legitimately wealthy” without her father and doesn’t need to rely on him.

Lemme go out on a limb and predict that this won't happen.

Yeah doubt that'll happen. Though this next quote seemed pretty accurate.

“They’re going to have to walk a very thin line between obfuscating in a way that’s not perjury and appeasing their father’s ego so that he doesn’t throw them under the bus when he testifies, which of course he’s going to do no matter what they do,” Mary Trump said ... referring to the two sons.

Yeah, where are these reporters getting these theories from? This is a mafia family.

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mary Trump, Ivanka’s cousin. That’s where they got it from.

[–] elbarto777@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Interesting. Thanks.

Yeah... regardless of her independent wealth, what does she stand to gain by doing that? Maybe if she was paid to do it, but not for free.

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah she seems to get along with her father ok so I don't see her doing that
