I think most of us know by now that Donald Trump Jr. isn’t the brightest bulb in the socket. But this was made really clear during a deposition related to the New York Attorney General’s civil fraud investigation of his father, Donald Trump (who is not Einstein either).

What his deposition really revealed is that the younger Trump doesn’t really understand accounting. Much.

Junior serves as an executive of the Trump Organization, and in a deposition recorded on July 22, we hear that he thinks it’s hilarious that he doesn’t know anything about accounting. The video was shown at the trial’s beginning, The Independent reports.

During the deposition Don Jr. did acknowledge that he was familiar with the acronym GAAP — standing for Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — but owned up that this is all he knows about accounting.

The interviewer asked him how he learned about this term, and he responded “Probably in Accounting 101 at Wharton.” Then the interviewer asked Junior what he was taught about the generally accepted accounting principles and he said “that they are generally accepted.”

Ha ha. Cute.

The interviewer laughed and pressed on, asking what else the younger Trump knew about accounting. Junior responded that was “pretty much” all he remembered.

The interviewer tried again, once more asking if that was everything he knew.

“Basically. You know, I’m sure I could come up with some creative stuff to kill time, but I’d be doing neither of us a favor in terms of educating ourselves,” Junior replied.

He also told the interviewer he has never been employed in a position requiring him to understand GAAP to carry out his duties.

Junior’s deposition came as part of New York Attorney General Letitia James’ investigation into the Trump Organization and its practices. She has accused the former president of overvaluing his assets in order to secure loans and conclude deals.

Last week a judge ruled that Trump was liable for fraud and dissolved some of his companies. He, Don Jr., and Eric, along with several others were named as defendants in the legal action.

Trump, of course, maintains he’s pure as the driven snow because mentally, he lives somewhere else than the rest of us. So he continues to deny allegations that he overvalued his assets.

“I am worth much more than the numbers shown on my financial statements. I didn’t even include my most valuable asset, my brand,” Trump complained. “There were no victims!”

Then he went on to insist that the “crazy KILL TRUMP decision” was politically motivated in a series of Truth Social posts after the judgment.

“It is a terrible reminder that the radical left Democrats will stop at nothing in trying to prevent me, and the American people, from winning the 2024 presidential election,” Trump said. “Regardless of party, we can not let this happen in the United States of America.”

Well, he didn’t exactly do a bang-up job with the “United States of America” during his first (and hopefully, only) term as president. He stirred terrible racial tensions with his rhetoric, left the U.S. with the worst unemployment record since Herbert Hoover, didn’t get his stupid wall built (thankfully), embarrassed every rational American on the world stage, and told an absolutely shocking number of lies, as The Washington Post let us know.

According to CNN, he’s told a few more since leaving office.

He manages to maintain he’s innocent while lying at the same time. Forget The Art of The Deal, he’s learned the Art of The Lie.
