Donald Trump Says He's Ready To Testify: 'We'll Have Fun On The Stand'

Donald Trump says he’s ready to testify in his own defense should he be indicted for his role in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. “We’ll have fun on the stand with all of these people that say the Presidential Election wasn’t Rigged or Stollen (sic),” the former president wrote Wednesday on his Truth Social platform. Trump went on to say it would be “THE TRIAL OF THE CENTURY!!!”

Trump faces federal charges over January 6, along with a potential indictment in Georgia over Trump’s efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election—with the Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis reportedly considering charges including solicitation to commit election fraud and conspiracy to commit election fraud, according to sources who spoke to The Guardian.

Trump’s statement comes as his former lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, conceded in a signed stipulation that he made “false” statements when he accused two Georgia election workers of mishandling ballots while counting the vote in Atlanta during the 2020 election. In a court filing, Giuliani said he no longer disputes that his statements were “actionable” and “false.” The former New York City mayor was sued by the election workers for defamation.

Last week, Trump revealed that federal prosecutors had sent him a “target letter” warning him that he could be indicted in relation to the January 6 attack. “Deranged Jack Smith, the prosecutor with Joe Biden’s DOJ, sent a letter stating that I am a TARGET of the January 6th Grand Jury investigation,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform, “giving me a very short 4 days to report to the Grand Jury, which almost always means an Arrest and Indictment.”

1. Yes, yes we will.

If his lawyers are so stupid as to allow it, we’ll need a lot of popcorn as Mango Mussolini perjures himself.

[emulatorloo]

2. His lawyers won't let allow him to testify because he'll incriminate himself. P.S. Yum, Stollen!

14. Imagine an ex president who can't spell stolen

Never ceases to amaze me

[magicarpet]

23. Daddy Fred sent the Fascist Tangerine Fuhrer,..

... to the very best ivy league colleges AmeriKKKa has to offer. Herr trDUMP,... graduated at the tip ti-pity top of his class,... was always on the dean's list,... and upon graduation given the highest academic honors of Summa cum Laude - with advanced degrees in English Grammar,.. English Literature,... and lastly English Spelling. He won every spelling bee he ever entered.

So please after all that hard work during his youth do not cast aspersions upon "The Donald".

[bedazzled]

35. I know he is really great....

At being a s**t head


Top marks!

[Permanut]

51. No casting asparagus here!

[Johonny]

29. I assume they will provide evidence their client is not

Mentally fit to stand trial before they let him take the stand

[MarineCombatEngineer]

39. His lawyers can't stop him from testifying and with Benedict's ego,

he won't be able to help himself by going off the rails on the stand.

Him testifying would be a prosecutor's dream come true.

[Ocelot II]

3. It won't happen, but I'd pay to watch it if it did.

[Autumn]

4. How cute. Orange fuck thinks testifying in court in a trial

is the same as one of his "Blow me rallies". He should insist it be televised.

[maptap22]

5. Blow me rallies

😂😂😂😂

[dchill]

6. That. Will. Be. The. Day.

[lamp_shade]

7. all of these people that trump speaks of are republicans.

[Trueblue1968]

8. buckets & buckets of popcorn !!!!!!!!!!!

[musette_sf]

9. "Be there. Will be wild!"

[peggysue2]

10. That's never going to happen

Trump knows it, we know it. This is just another moment when the Orange Menace wants to beat his chest and pretend he's the biggest, the baddest.

Might as well stamp his feet like the toddler he's always been.

[gratuitous]

11. God doesn't love me that much

The prosecutors would carve him up like a Virginia ham on the stand.

[unc70]

13. Spiral Cut

[allegorical oracle]

12. So what's funny about taking the Fifth? Over and over and... nt

[keep_left]

15. What is it with Trump and misspelling a simple word like "stolen" as a German...

...Christmas bread (Stollen)?! This has happened multiple times now. Trump must be tweeting...er..."truthing"...things out so furiously that he ignores the spell-check (or doesn't care). I think I've now seen three or four "truths" of his that have this same error, and there are no doubt more.

[Captain Zero]

17. He repeats the misspelling until spell check is corrupt

As he is and actually believes it.

Haha.

[twodogsbarking]

40. He couldn't spell his third wife's name.

[Fiendish Thingy]

16. He'll never testify in court, under oath

Not gonna happen.

This is bluster borne of desperation.

[Bristlecone]

18. And he's gonna release his taxes too!

He will say his lawyers advised him not to. Just like his accountants advised him not to release his returns under the audit that never was.

[EYESORE 9001]

19. The election was stollen

I voted for traditional Dresden-style stollen.

[milestogo]

20. ...

[lame54]

28. A fruitcake would know

[Hortensis]

21. RW leaders shudder at the thought, while we

Oh, PLEASE, let it happen!

He'll be too terrified to break the leash as he so often does, but... Let's ALL hope!

[Lulu KC]

22. Yuk n/t

[Ohioboy]

24. He's never actually going to do it

He's just trying to act tough.

[marble falls]

25. Whistling past the graveyard. Good. I can't wait. Jack Smith will have him for lunch

[bluestarone]

26. Well, that's already a LIE!

[lame54]

27. Never EVER happen

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

30. Because that's worked so well for him so far

[kentuck]

31. That's funny!

He will probably call Kevin McCarthy as a character witness.

[Wounded Bear]

32. Would love to see his Colonel Jessup moment...

[Ms. Toad]

37. +1000 n/t

[NowISeetheLight]

33. Christmas Wish

Please Santa... let him testify.

[TomSlick]

34. Not a snowball's chance in hell.

He would have to step over the bodies of his dead lawyers to get to the witness stand.

[FakeNoose]

36. Has he been called to testify to the grand jury?

Receiving a target letter is one thing, but Chump hasn't been charged with anything yet. It sounds like he's totally jumping the gun on this.

I really wish his attorneys would take away his cellphone and forbid him to post anything on social media. Every time he does this, he looks even more guilty. (And stupid.)

Just sayin'

[Ms. Toad]

38. His target letter included an invitation to testify.

That's what started this recent spate of speculation.

[Justice matters.]

42. Oh my, he's incriminating himself more and more each day on his fraudulent platform...

Jack doesn't even have to request a search warrant for his pathetic phone!

[LiberalFighter]

41. If the trial is not televised he won't have much of an audience.

[Aristus]

43. One imagines his lawyers trying to hire the Budweiser Clydesdales to haul his ass away

from the witness stand. If he gets up there and is placed under oath, there's no way in Hell he doesn't perjure himself.

[Oopsie Daisy]

44. If only. It would be fun to watch (or read about) him testifying.

But I doubt that will happen. He will not take the stand. He's a coward.

[MineralMan]

45. Yes, Please. Put Him on the Stand.

He'll convict himself very quickly.

[lambchopp59]

46. And the MAGAts wildly cheer!

So do we in hilariously inverse intent.

[twodogsbarking]

47. Do you swear that you have never told the truth or anything like the truth so help us all.

[republianmushroom]

48. Hopefully A-O you will get your chance.

You will be there for this trial. A-O.
30 months and counting

[JPPaverage]

49. Maybe he can call my pillow guy to testify

After all, he has mountains of evidence that the election was rigged.
BTW, in case you haven't figured it out

[Martin68]

50. I don't believe he'll take the stand, but I really hope he does.

Give him enough rope...

[LuckyCharms]

52. He meant to say "I'll get fucked on the stand".
