Ring any bells? Trump boys show less than total recall at family fraud trial

In Manhattan court, Don Jr couldn’t remember much about the company he works for – and brother Eric had trouble, too

In 1990, Ronald Reagan testified at the trial of John Poindexter, his former national security adviser caught up in the Iran-Contra affair. Two years out of office, questioned for eight hours, the former US president famously said “I don’t recall” or “I can’t remember” no less than 88 times.

This week, the two adult sons of one of Reagan’s Republican successors took the stand in New York, for testimony in a $250m civil fraud trial in which the judge has already determined the family’s guilt and now seeks to determine their penalty.
