What is there to lie about really. When a 79 year old man is asked a question and he responds, “I don’t know or don’t remember” there is little reason it shouldn’t be believed. There is a reason that air traffic controllers are forced into retirement at ~56, because studies found people’s mental acquity starts declining rapidly and they can’t be found reliable for important roles. This guy hasn’t held office in 25 years now, it would be hard to find anything you can guarantee he remembers accurately during his time in office without having to review documentation and fill in gaps and let his brain believe it remembers.
It’s the whole thing about a person will run a red light, remember it being green, witness says it was green, video feed shows it was clearly red. And that testimony happens within minutes to months. Witness testimony isn’t worth much, let alone years later.
Kind of like when Trump did a testimony back in 2019, like all of his responses were “I don’t recall”
