I just heard Trump plans on testifying

[TrogL]

I worked for decades as a systems analyst for the Alberta Government. Occasionally in meetings the users would demand drastic, unrealistic or impossible changes to the system. I had a can of salmon that I re-labelled “WORMS” that I would take out and fiddle with until my boss caught me and told me to knock it off.

My understanding is that if Trump testifies the prosecutors can drag in a whole bunch of extra issues that are sure to make headlines, even on Fox News.

Apparently no lawyer in their right mind would allow this, but even though Trump’s donors are paying a literal fortune for these people, either they’re even more incompetent than we suspected or he’s stopped listening to them.

Dammit where’s my worm can?

1. there is a reason why the Constitution allows us to NOT testify at our own trial

[mucifer]

2. he often doesn't testify and he lies so he probably won't. Also, there is a hearing going on Monday to determine

what the prosecutors could ask him about if he testifies.

This is not judge cannon so the hearing won't go his way.

[RockRaven]

3. Nah... He SAYS he plans on testifying. Big difference there.

You know, because he's full of shit.

[blm]

4. He won't. The bravado is part of his act.

[jcgoldie]

5. He said he will testify because he is a liar.

Which is also why there's no way he will testify.

6. He'll come up with some lame excuse

And then whine incessantly about it, between the farts.

[viva la]

7. All the scams, the sexual assault, the lies...

They could all be described if he testifies-- in order to cast doubt on his "honesty".

8. Not worms---WHOOP-ASS.

Prosecutors will be bringing their #50 cans of it if TSF gets on the stand. I'm sure his attorneys will loose the sumo wrestlers on him if he takes one step toward the witness chair. He may find out what "Release the Kraken" REALLY means.

[Goodheart]

9. No way.

[central scrutinizer]

10. Please proceed!

Should add perjury to the list of crimes

[Silent3]

11. Yes, and he's going to release all of his tax returns any minute now n/t

[Ping Tung]

12. Trump's use of his tongue consists of making it into a noose and hanging himself with it.

His lawyers won't object to outside issues being brought in because they're busy trying to figure how they're going to get him to pay them when he's going bankrupt and probably going to prison.

Maybe can make himself his own lawyer and then appeal the guilty verdict on the grounds of his lawyer's incompetence.
