Ivanka Trump asks to pause NY fraud trial, says testimony during ‘school week’ creates ‘undue hardship’ https://t.co/Zyt3MRa7ru

She lost this bid, but just taking in the whole nonsense of it: this woman has worked outside of the home--why is testifying during a weekday any different? Her husband can take a day off to watch the kids. She can afford a governess. She can park the wee'uns with their step-granny at Mar-a-Lago. Regular working moms all over the country who leave for work every weekday have made some arrangement for their kids with little complaining.
They have to do what they have to do.
This reticence on Ivanka's part sure looks an awful lot like trying to be kept out of the conversation for reasons. Things aren't really going great with her brothers' testimonies. He dad is the kind of guy you wouldn't exempt from consideration of throwing his kids under the bus.
"I'd love to testify but I have kids" is bound to be topped. I'm still trying to work out how "I sign everything without knowing any better because I just work here" Donny and Eric "I pour concrete and sometimes work on financial statements for no particular reason" are going to escape some heat. Ivanka--man. I wish this trial extended to her odd trademarks or that we'd hear about how Jared benefitted from his "foreign policy experience", business-wise.
But as with her father's plan of constant delay, she already seems to be speaking volumes. Testifying will be bad for her in some way. For her father too, I suspect.
