Trump denied in writing and under oath to Mueller of not having any recollection of ever discussing WikiLeaks with Stone or being aware of Stone discussing WikiLeaks with the campaign.
Today Gates testified he was in the car with Trump when Trump talked to Stone about it.
They were discussing STOLEN material from the DNC.
I don't remember is not an absolute defense, sort of like absolute immunity is not a thing.
It is not a valid defense if it can be reasonably proven to be a lie.
For example, say I drink coffee from sun-up to sun-down. A claim that I had "no recollection" of drinking coffee would be perjury.
I can't recall ever having decaf though. Someone proving I did (one time 40 years ago) would not be perjury.
