It is definitely not worth watching Trump repeat “same” the entire time, but it’s worth watching a few times. The normally bombastic, aggressive, spiteful guy is nowhere to be seen. And that’s odd because the same guy said this in 2018:

“You see the mob takes the Fifth…If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment.” – Donald J Trump in 2018 … wonder what changed his mind on the 5th???

That was rather shortsighted of him. He had to know that he had committed many crimes in his life but counted upon his money and “friends” to buy him out of any situation. He also had to know that it was possible (Mueller was investigating) that he would be found to have committed a crime. So, it was probably a mistake to say that if you plead the fifth, you are guilty.

And so here’s the guy:

Newly released video obtained by CBS News shows former President Trump’s deposition last summer in the New York attorney general’s civil fraud investigation. “He’s invoking the Fifth Amendment hundreds of times,” CBS News’

reports. cbsn.ws/3WW018y

This is not to say that taking the Fifth is a bad idea. The United States should be proud that one cannot be forced to testify against oneself. But Trump’s problem is that pleading the Fifth is allowed to “mean something” to a jury in a civil case, as is the case in New York. And, if Trump faces a criminal trial, the answers about “the Fifth” give them a guide to what questions would elicit evidence of a crime.

That is unless Trump just sat and plead the Fifth to every question except name and position.

    • Funny how limited intelligence people show up here once in a while … It would be a LOT funnier if it did not waste so much of our time laughing our asses off at these statements, showing just how little mental ability qualifies one to speak for Donald J. Trump …

    • Biden might suck but he’s a hell of a lot better than an insecure, obese, orange face painting, whiny, pathological liar with a persecution complex. I’d vote for Bidens corpse before I’d vote Trump.
