Donald Trump on the stand

[White 6]

Yeah cuz that's never happened before.

Honest question:

IF he beats this, will you finally start to doubt the media that keeps telling you they "GOT HIM THIS TIME"?

Or will you immediately fall for the very next BS play they throw at you, just as you surely have consistently for the last seven odd years?

I think we both already know the answer.

That is a pretty big if. His best bet is to find some settlement for reduction in charges and no time,

It is only political as it involve Donny,

Where are the charges against the vegetable for the same crime? Hmmm, not political my ass.

So says another shithouse lawyer.

 

[Stormy Daniels]

If his lawyers play the politics instead of the law, like the Republican lawyers did after 2020 with "The Big Lie", people my age will not be alive by the time he gets out.

And therein lies the rub. I have a hunch that the lawyers will want to focus on the law, but Donald will want to play the politics game, and will keep trying to push crazy shit. I think that's likely to be the biggest variable in the outcome of this case.

You would have said the same thing if I asked you during "Russia Russia Russia".

He was goin' down! Mueller had him dead to rights. THE WALLS AS CLOSING IN I TELL YA!

Then?

*Crickets*

But, of course, you didn't actually answer the question.

Of the White House maybe.

If you think he'll spend even a day in jail, you're beyond delusional.

Presidents have special rights and privileges over their documents.

Trump isn't President...

And they aren't his documents.

[Aldo Raine]

Did he make a list of what was declassified or just do it with his thoughts?

Jedi mind trick/Vulcan mind melt. Or some such shit!

 

[WorldWatcher]

Please Lord, please let the FPOTUS take to the stand so he can have his say.

Pretty please.

[Skylar]

Do you think he'll testify in his own defense? Do you think he should?

*Fuck* no.

The man lies like he breaths, isn't particularly bright, is easily baited and provoked, is fantastically unlikable under pressure, is easily flustered, and even with a lawyer holding his hand in a deposition, can't stop digging himself into a hole.

His defense attorneys will tackle the man before they let him within 10 paces of the witness stand.

 

[White 6]

Yeah, that wouldn't happen. A defendant has an absolute right to testify in her defense. The lawyer can't prohibit it.

Sometimes it is not a good idea, depending on the charges and the client. If Donny starts talking on the stand, he'll go down and probably some of his lawyers, possibly even ones that have quit or been let go already, might be wearing jumpsuits also. It would not surprise me if lawyers quit him for irreconcilable difference, if he even discusses testifying personally testifying.

 

[WorldWatcher]

Did he make a list of what was declassified or just do it with his thoughts?

I think he used one of these so he could deal with pallets of boxes all at the same time.

I love how you initial your post as if anyone gives a shit haha

"EW look! Another brilliant take from Wordle Wonder!"

Or something.

 

[BS Filter]

So explain it.

Presidential Records Act. Research it.

Trump isn't President...

And they aren't his documents.

WW

Another idiot who doesn't understand Trump has the same rights and privileges as every other president who leaves office.

But, of course, you didn't actually answer the question.

Did you notice the dodge by the NY DA? They knew there would be no conviction and this was the convenient way out. But these leftist morons refuse to see the writing on the wall. How many times will they attempt this crap before they admit that it is--like the bad orange man says, "A political witch hunt."

 

[White 6]

So says another shithouse lawyer.

I'm no lawyer, but I did sleep in a Holiday in Express.

 

[BS Filter]

So what should we infer if Donald doesn't take the stand? Isn't is best shot to tell the jury that the docs were declassified before he left office?

The best shot would be to bribe the jury. I suspect that's what he's planning.

 

[Aldo Raine]

Then why did the Judge declare that his lawyers need to get clearances?

Mic drop!

 

[Concerned American]

I'm no lawyer

And that is the most honest thing you've posted today.

And therein lies the rub. I have a hunch that the lawyers will want to focus on the law, but Donald will want to play the politics game, and will keep trying to push crazy shit. I think that's likely to be the biggest variable in the outcome of this case.

Unfortunately for him, that may be quite true.
