'I really think the defeat was shown when Eric Trump pleaded the fifth five hundred times in his deposition,' Renato Mariotti said.
After Eric Trump testified in his father's $250 million civil fraud trial, former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti said Friday that his testimony began a 'march towards defeat.
He added that he believes Trump's defense will continue to try to shift the narrative that they relied on accountants and lawyers to ensure the financial statements were accurate.'They have to blame somebody and I will tell you, you can bet your bottom dollar that the accountants and lawyers are not going to march in there and say it was all their fault. I do think that's where they have to go and that's why they're trying to shift the narrative.
