Donald Trump’s granddaughter Mary Trump said in an interview Sunday that the former president “accused” his daughter Ivanka of “perjury” when she was attacked on Jan. 6 after testifying on television.
In a video of her testimony, heard at a hearing Thursday, Ivanka Trump said she agrees with former Attorney General Bill Barr’s decision not to rig the presidential election, as her father claimed.
“I respect the Attorney General, so I understand what he said,” he said.
Donald Trump responded on social media that his daughter had been “checked”, had no known election details and had just tried to respect Bill Barr and his position as Attorney General (he’s the devil!).
Ivanka Trump did not participate in viewing or analyzing the election results. He’s been absent for a long time and, I think, he’s just trying to respect the position of Bill Barr and his attorney general (he’s trying!).

Mary Trump told MSNBC that the former president’s comments “accuse” her daughter of “lying.” He specifically referred to Trump and said his daughter would “move on”. But the former president also offered to tell Ivanka what he did “out of respect for the bar,” implying that he didn’t believe her.
Otherwise, father-son behavior is “exactly what I expected of the two of us,” Mary Trump said.
“I think Ivanka is on a very good line,” he explains. “He didn’t say anything irritating, but because we thought it was going to happen, he decided he had to take sides with what the facts showed.”
Regarding Donald Trump, he said: “No. completely “Throw it under the bus,” his nephew said.
Mary Trump predicted that their future relationship would depend on whether they would still be able to take advantage of each other.
Their relationship, “whether they’re close or not, is entirely transactional,” he explains. “When one or both of them come to the conclusion that none of them, then they will move on.”
Trump, who is a psychologist, believes his uncle “heard” that he had lost the 2020 presidential election, but he absolutely couldn’t “beat it.”
“He’s not going to be there,” he said. For him “being defeated is completely unacceptable”.
“On this last date, one of the reasons why people think the‘ big lie ’is compelling … is Donald’s belief that it’s as true as the sound of a lie,” Trump explained.
He said he was “not surprised” that his uncle supported the request to “hang” former Vice President Mike Pence, as Vice President of the House of Commons Rep. By Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.).
