Ivanka sent 'a signal' to Trump and her brothers to not 'pull her in': ex-prosecutor

Appearing on MSNBC early Saturday morning, former prosecutor Glenn Kirschner claimed Donald Trump and his sons, Don Jr. and Eric, may not like what Ivanka Trump has to say when she appears under oath in the Trump Organization's $250 million financial fraud trial in Manhattan next Wednesday.

Speaking with host Jonathan Capehart, Kirschner pointed to a previous instance when Trump's oldest daughter parted company with her father and brothers and said it should serve as a warning sign that it could happen again.

Acknowledging that the former president's testimony on Monday could prove to be explosive because he has a flair for the dramatic, the former prosecutor suggested his daughter's testimony has Trump and his sons facing the "danger zone."

"I'm actually looking forward to something a Trump has to say," he told the host before continuing, "But it's not Donald Trump, it's Ivanka Trump because I think she presents a real danger zone for her father and her brothers."

He added, "The fact that she has been mightily fighting the prospect of having to testify in this case signals that it might be because her testimony is really damaging to her other family members, and then the third point and the most common one Jonathan, is we all saw during the January 6 select committee public hearings, we saw her famously disagree with her father about election fraud."

"She was asked, do you agree with your father that there was widespread election fraud undermining the results, or do you agree with [former Attorney General] Bill Barr that there was no election fraud undermining the results of the election? She answered, I believe, I credit Bill Barr," he recalled before elaborating, "In other words, read between the lines: my father is a liar. That sounds like a signal that Ivanka was sending to her father, and by extension out, maybe to her brothers: do not pull me into this, because I will not comply with your lies. So yes, I'm looking forward to what Ivanka has to say."
