You can show him something and have him deny it moments later and there’s no way of divining if he’s lying, a moron, that fucking narcissistic or all of the above.
On the other hand, we can’t just allow “I didn’t know” or “I can’t remember” to be a universal get-out-of-jail-free card, or anybody could get out of anything with this One Weird Trick. Can you imagine someone getting out of a murder charge by claiming they didn’t know the thing in their hand was a gun? (Oh wait, that actually happened, more or less. Not sure how that affects my argument, though.)
Trumpy-Boi has the burden of proof

The answer is D, all of the above.
Sadly, that isn’t how it works. The prosecution always has the burden of proof. The accused is presumed innocent.
Let’s not go crazy and act like things are different just because cheeto man is a douche canoe and we want to see him rot in jail.
