    ‘You’re starting to sound like your client,’ judge tells Trump lawyer

    Ivanka Trump came off the stand briefly while lawyers argued over the AG’s line of questioning.

    Trump lawyer Chris Kise said questions about Ivanka Trump’s involvement in a deal to convert the Old Post Office in Washington, D.C. into a hotel were irrelevant because of statute of limitation issues, and noted the government agency involved in the talks was happy with it.

    "They were thrilled with the renovation and it was a world class facility,” Kise said.

    “You’re starting to sound like your client,” Judge Engoron replied.
