And the more people you involve in the lie the harder it is. You have to be really, really smart to pull that off and that is one thing Twitler definitely is not.

He and his team of lawyers know that, in ordinary circumstances, he can out wait people who have a grievance with him. They run out of money or patience and either accept a payoff or drop the case. This time he is up against a whole different scenario with the FBI and other agencies investigating his ties to Russia. No buy offs this time. It will be interesting to see what tricks tRump tries to pull to wiggle out of this. Why do I think of Wiley Coyote??
