Donald Trump Jr. took the witness stand in a Manhattan courtroom Wednesday to defend himself in the $250 million civil fraud trial that threatens his dad’s real estate empire — firing off several jokes as he denied working on the financial statements that are key to the case.

“I apologize, Your Honor, I moved to Florida but I kept the New York pace,” Don Jr. jovially responded.
