Mary Trump said in an interview that the former president accused her daughter of perjury after she testified.
At last Thursday's hearing by the House panel probing the insurrection,Ivanka Trump said she accepted former Attorney General Bill Barr's determination that the presidential election was not rigged.
She said that she accepted what the attorney general was saying.
Donald Trump said that his daughter was checked out, that she didn't know anything about the election, and that he tried to be respectful to Bill Bar.
Ivanka Trump was not involved in looking at, or studying, Election results. She had long since checked out and was, in my opinion, only trying to be respectful to Bill Barr and his position as Attorney General (he sucked!).

Mary Trump thought the former president had accused his daughter of perjury. Trump said his daughter had checked out. The former president suggested that she didn't necessarily believe him because she only said what she did out of respect for Barr.
Mary Trump said the father- and daughter behavior was what she expected.
She said that she thought the daughter walked a fine line. She decided she needed to come down on the side of what the facts support, even though she didn't say anything that was particularly inflammatory.
Donald Trump threw her under the bus, according to his niece.
If they can still benefit from one another, that's what Mary Trump predicted.
She said their relationship is transactional even if they seem close. They will move on if one or both of them decide that there is nothing in it for them.
Trump believes that her uncle understands that she cannot face being aloser even though he lost the election.
She said that he couldn't go there. Being a loser is something that he doesn't like.
Donald has come to believe the lie to a degree that makes it sound authentic.
She said she wasn't surprised that her uncle supported the call to hang Mike Pence.
