Trump unsuccessfully used a variation of the Marjorie Taylor Greene "I don't know; don't recall" defense.
(ABC News)Former President Donald Trump, in a sworn affidavit, said Friday he possesses no documents subpoenaed by the New York Attorney General's Office -- but the judge overseeing the case declined to end his contempt finding and the $10,000 daily fine.
"To the best of my knowledge, (i) I do not have any of the documents requested in the subpoena dated December 1, 2021 in my personal possession; and (ii) if there are any documents responsive to the subpoena I believe they would be in the possession or custody of the Trump Organization," Trump's affidavit said.
