The Trump Trial
-
The cost of his impetuousness shows up at inconvenient times like this.
The fact that it would be almost inconceivable for him not to torpedo himself if he took the stand means they had to choose the second worst option, not testify at all.
Only non-witches get due process.

HIs lawyers certainly understood that. I wonder how they explained it to him.
"Listen, Mr. President. We have to talk about how you....present yourself during questioning. Your remarks tend to be

Of course you don’t.
No, most people that don't have TDS would say the same thing. As poisoned as the New York jury pool is, I doubt very seriously Trump could get a fair trial.
This is bullshit. You know it, I know it.
Don't pretend it's something different.

Agreed, and, this being a civil, not criminal case, the bar is much lower for an unfavorable verdict for Trump.
So, does this affect his candicacy?

No. Everybody knows he does this kind of thing already, and true believers will think its a hoax.

I think it's quite plausible. But I am naturally suspicious of cases that are not brought until there is political hay and/or money to be made 25-30 years later.
