I 'signed accordingly,' Trump Jr. says of financial statements
Donald Trump Jr., back on the stand for the second day, testified that the signatures on some of the statements of financial condition at the center of the case were his, but he denied working on them or having intimate knowledge of their contents.
"I would have checked with our legal department. If they assured me in their expert opinion that these things were fine, I would have been fine with that and would have signed accordingly," Trump Jr. said.

Assistant attorney general Colleen Faherty asked if his answer would be the same -- that he had no specific knowledge of the financial statements -- for each of the years between 2017 and 2021, when he was trustee of the revocable trust that held his father's assets.
"Rinse and repeat," Trump Jr. responded. "I think we could save each other a lot of time and effort -- yes, it would be the same thing."
