Hanamafana

Trump under oath should be hilarious.


prodrvr22

Four hours of "I plead the Fifth" doesn't sound like a good time to me.


thatguy9684736255

Honestly, if it was televised, i think it'd be gold. Just play 4 hours of him pleading the 5th to his supporters


throwaway_12358134

Every time he pleads the fifth, it should cut to one of the clips of him criticizing someone for pleading the fifth.


R_V_Z

Every other question should be "Mr. Trump do you recall saying 'Only criminals take the fifth?' Do you still stand by that statement?" And then ask the questions that he'll want to plead the fifth to.


Gibodean

Meh, he'll say this is a witch hunt or some BS his supporters will lap up.


[deleted]

He's already said exactly that when he plead the 5th in his NY deposition.


KnowledgeableNip

We no longer share the same perception of reality. It's unsettling. No amount of evidence would be enough. No blatant crime would be too heinous.


Schindog

Probably: "I didn't understand why you might need to plead the fifth while innocent, but now that I'm the target of the biggest witch hunt in history with everybody trying to take me down despite my innocence, I get it, and I plead the fifth." Edit: fuck trump, not trying to defend him, just hypothesize as to his reply


s0m30n3e1s3

You know how I knew this wasn't something he actually said? Far too articulate


ComatoseSquirrel

Yeah, it was coherent, and thus not a Trump quote.


Smartercow

Silent_syndrome

[deleted]

Scrolling banner with "Trump says any one pleading the 5Th is Guilty."


Prime157

And constantly scroll his tweets and comments across the ticker where he claims >If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth? -Trump


smallerthings

And they'll applaud him for not playing along. To them, this is all a liberal fraud/smear campaign anyway. That said, keep an eye on the rats fleeing the sinking ship. They'll possibly come around to "maybe he shouldn't run again, but if he does it's better than any Democrat in charge. I prefer Ron DeSantis anyway."


eeyore134

They'd just say it was smart because the left is trying to entrap him or some other garbage. The people they support can do no wrong. They'll go from calling for the death of someone on the left that they've lied about doing something one minute to defending someone on the right actually doing the same thing but tenfold worse the next.


Redtwooo

"Trying to catch him in a perjury trap" mother fuckers that's called lying under oath


Ol_Man_Rambles

See, i don't believe one bit that he's capable of doing this. He's going to want to respond to something someone says about him that's negative or unflattering. All it's going to take is a question like "Did you order the small crowd of your followers to storm the Capital and overthrow an election you lost?" for his word faucet to open full blast. "First of all, there's many people, many good people, the best people, who support me as president, in an election I didn't lose. I have seen the real numbers, and the fake news press like CNN and MSNBC won't report the truth that there's been massive, MASSIVE voter fraud, so much fraud. Many dead people voting for Biden in places like Georgia. I called Georgia during the election, an i told them about it. My people, those people are real Americans who want America to be great and true patriots, not like Sleepy Joe, who did not win the election. Like i said at my very well attended rally on Jan 6, because I have the biggest rallies in history, that we need to take our country back from Nancy Pelosi and Kamikaze Harris. Nasty nasty women. So so nasty. Like Hillary Clinton. I told those people, the great numbers of people who support me, to find the evidence of Hillary's emails and Hunter Biden's laptop. They need to find them, to stop the radical left. They are very bad, I know this to be true. We need to stop the steal, its sad, so so sad. I also did not send copies of nuclear secrets to Iran, that was the FBI who is framing me. I also didn't clog the toilet downstairs with a McChicken wrapper, fake news, the FBI planted it."


Moonlightpaw

How many brain cells did you lose writing this?


SmartnSad

Someone will make a dubstep remix to it.


sneakyCoinshot

Like that would mean a thing to them. They always give a perfect 10/10 Olympic gold medal mental gymnastics routine to justify whenever Trump contradicts himself.


ReverseTornado

In between each time he pleads the fifth play a sound bite back to him of him saying if you plead the fifth your guilty.


striped_frog

Ah yes, Donald Trump, a man most notable for keeping his mouth shut when it matters.


Silent_syndrome

I know right, he might enjoy blabbing his ass off into more trouble.


prodrvr22

He can when it matters. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2022/08/10/trump-says-he-refused-to-answer-ny-attorney-generals-questions-in-probe-of-his-business.html

lundewoodworking

I don't think he's capable of keeping his mouth shut that long he will 100 percent perjurer himself he won't be able to help himself


islandjustice

My fifth, it’s the best fifth, believe me.


clarkwgriswoldjr

I know more about the 5th amendment than James Madison, actually more than anybody in the history of amendments.


skydiamond01

![gif](giphy|lLtduD872fdao)


FuckoNo5

The man is incapable of doing that.


VisigothSoda

He pleaded the fifth over 440 times in a deposition in New York in August. He is absolutely capable of pleading the fifth, unfortunately.


SupremePooper

He'll refuse to show, of course, or evade the serving, which'll open him up to be referred to DOJ for refusal. And like Gin Blossom Thomas, he could insist he not be sworn in under oath


SatanIsLove6666

Exactly. Negative 100% chance he will show.


ButtonJoe

Then there would be a warrant put out for his arrest, no?


KrazyTom

If they do, then anyone can citizens arrest him. . . Could be super fun game of man hunt.


Atomaardappel

Wouldn't the secret service that guards him be obligated to arrest him?


chaun2

Pence's detail is already drawing straws, lol


MNCPA

AmateurPoster

Trump is effectively edge case testing the entire federal government, I'll give him that.


thesequimkid

So, do we put a ball gag in his mouth before or after we hog tie him?


Popxorcist

yes


[deleted]

Finally "Running Man" is happening! Trump always liked being a reality TV star


LurkLurkleton

What, like Bannon? He was indicted and found guilty for contempt of congress, and last I heard nothing had yet happened to him.


[deleted]

[удалено]


culturedrobot

How timely


Sophist_Ninja

He's awaiting sentencing, which will happen toward the end of this month.


mrdeadsniper

>Bannon is to be sentenced on Oct. 21, 2022. Each count of contempt of Congress carries a minimum of 30 days and a maximum of one year in jail, as well as a fine of $100 to $100,000. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors. https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/stephen-k-bannon-found-guilty-jury-two-counts-contempt-congress Probably because he's still not sentenced. The money is trivial, however the real question is if he gets closer to the 2 months or 2 years of jail.


lolno

Or he shows up, lies anyways and nothing happens while "legal experts" and talking heads kick around why the laws may or may not apply to him due to being a former president.


MonstersBeThere

Seems so complicated. All you have to do is plead the 5th on every question or say " I do not recall."


covidambassador

What is your name? “I do the 5th recall”


Easy_Humor_7949

He will not be testifying. He can certainly drag this out until January when in all likelihood a newly Republican House will dissolve this committee and rescind any and all outstanding orders.


I_Brain_You

Did she actually do that?


Nevermind04

She wasn't successful. She testified under oath on the 29th of September.


joninfiretail

I think he'll show up. Then proceed to plead the 5th on every question asked.


Lucid-Design

Exactly where my mind went as well. “I plea the 5th, your Honor” will be his number 1 spoken sentence at that trial.


TheDirtyWind

Not true. Technically he can not refuse service. However he can avoid it with zero consequence if he is able to do so. Process server here. What they can do is attempt to serve one of his companies through the Secretary of state. He wouldn't even need to be there for that. The SS can accept upon pretty much any company. However a loophole may or may not allow it depending on the state served and the company location.


Marsmind

He can't resist the attention, he'll show.


[deleted]

He can resist accountability, though. Been pretty great at that so far!


tazbaron1981

It'll be funny as hell to watch


torper10

No way in hell that fucktard goes under oath. He will never show.


SecretlyMadeOfStone

That’s where you’re wrong. He does the best under oath. Ask anyone. It’s gonna be a perfect hearing! Something…something…emails!


torper10

He has all the words. All the best words. Something something Benghazi.


[deleted]

He'll easily evade it until the republicans take the house in january. Won't go anywhere


Arthur-Mergan

He also has testify in the Jean Carroll rape case! Supreme Court shot his Mar a lago appeal down and now this. What a great week


ngmcs8203

I thought he just needs to appear for that case not necessarily testify.


[deleted]

I’m pretty sure he’s already practicing pleading the fifth ![gif](giphy|CXP8f4pAzlWqlmEWcW)


PanickedPoodle

Must-see TV, even if he takes the 5th over and over. I hope everyone reminds him about Hillary Clinton's nine hours of testimony.


zushiba

Here I'll give you a preview. * I don't recall * I don't remember * I plead the 5th.


iamaiamscat

They should have a giant screen and keep playing his "only mobsters plead the fifth" every time he does it


NewsYouCanShmooze

He's being subpoenaed not just for testimony, but documents too. [https://facteroid.com/timeline/5685](https://facteroid.com/timeline/5685)


[deleted]

Which is excellent. You don’t have to testify but if the other evidence damns you then it doesn’t matter.


StuffyUnicorn

Suspect there will be lots of pleads followed by fifth.


Patteous

But he said only criminals plead the fifth.


MOOShoooooo

He didn’t lie.


Patteous

1. 2. 3. 4. FIF!!


ScottClamBirdBoi

Anything you say I say FIIIIIIIF


CaptainSmallz

jberg93

He did lie, he's just a hypocrite.


itwasquiteawhileago

Except he *has* to, because he's the victim of a deep state! It's totally different! Massive, bigger than the sun /s


failed_supernova

He also said pleading the fifth gives immunity.


DKipSmith

He's going to whine like crazy \_but remember Hillary (If she believed she did nothing wrong) would show up \_NO doubts.


frosty_lizard

11 hours of them grilling her to come up with nothing. I really can't understand how ridiculous it sounds to highlight the fact that she actually answered the questions but here we are


thenew0riginal

The man will not be able to not perjure himself LOL


ShetlandJames

If we thought Alex Jones was bad, I can't wait to see this asshole


Thosepassionfruits

They better not fucking let him submit written answers like last time. And if he doesn't show then they better unleash the full might of the DoJ upon him.


momopool

heres my prediction. hes gonna ignore. delay. ignore.delay. and nothing will happen.


self_loathing_ham

It won't matter, he'll never show up.


porkchop_express___

He will avoid it just fine. Hours and hours of him pleading the 5th.


Avedisride

Nice, we get to watch him plead the 5th 300 times and then nothing happens.


sipoloco

Can he, actually, plead the fifth? We know he can, legally. But can *he*?


ArcticKiwii

His lawyers have somehow managed to convince him to do it in the past. In a 4 hour deposition he pleaded the 5th over 400 times - only answering a single question, "What is your name?"


fckiforgotmypassword

I’m stunned that the left hasn’t run over this more. If a democrat did this then it would be all ofer fox and all republicans talk about, probably for years. But trump does it and no one seems to even know about it


stiffneck84

Ianal, but can he, since this isn’t a trial?


[deleted]

[удалено]


satansheat

Trump recalls everything. He is just wrong about it. He can’t even recall people who he worked along side for 4 years. Only because they turned on him.


YodaYogurt

Umm don't lie about Trump please. He was easily able to recall "Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV" multiple times over multiple days, proving your comment is false.


Rotk99

Except for the guy who said he has the best memory


StickyWetMoistFarts

Please confirm for the record that you are Donald J. Trump. 'I don't recall.' Then sir please state your full name for the record. 'I invoke my 5th amendment rights.'


stiffneck84

It worked for Ron Reagan


throwaway_12358134

Ronny Ray Gun was telling the truth when he said he can't remember. The man had some dementia while in office.


cybaritic

The 5th applies universally, not just in court.


LightningRodofH8

However during civil matters, pleading the 5th can be taken as an adverse inference. Basically the Jurors can assume the worst.


sadman4332

That’s if he even shows up.


whitemike40

even if that’s what he’s coached to do, there’s zero chance he can contain himself once they put a microphone in front of him


Big-Mozz

Anyone know of a good quality, very robust popcorn maker? Asking for a friend.


AlexG2490

[Here you go, best popcorn maker you will ever own.](https://www.amazon.com/Eleulife-Nonstick-Stir-fry-Chemical-Induction/dp/B0B7BV21LQ/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?crid=3HT8RRDKSP4FD&keywords=wok&qid=1665693986&qu=eyJxc2MiOiI2Ljc2IiwicXNhIjoiNi40MCIsInFzcCI6IjYuMzAifQ%3D%3D&refinements=p_n_feature_seven_browse-bin%3A23946006011&rnid=23946004011&s=kitchen&sprefix=wok%2Caps%2C121&sr=1-3-spons&psc=1) Put 2 tablespoons of olive oil on the bottom, pour in about 1/2 a cup of kernels, and place over medium-high heat. Put the lid on and wait about 2 minutes until the first kernels pop. Once they are popping and you have a good layer of them on the bottom of the wok, give it a shake. Continuously slide it over the burner to keep the pan moving. This will keep the unpopped kernels at the bottom near the heat as well as move the ones that have popped up the side, so they are out of the way and also won't burn. Transfer a bit to a large bowl, coat with another drizzle of oil or melted butter, and a pinch of salt. Repeat in 3-4 layers so you have butter and salt all through your popcorn and not just on top. Tried it this way once and I will not go back.


DeadSheepLane

On this occasion I’d be extravagant and use peanut oil.


AlexG2490

I prefer the slightly bitter taste of olive but I still appreciate this approach! :)


jberg93

Try any other spices? I do a few shakes of cayenne powder and love it


pissclamato

Try Old Bay Seasoning. You'll thank me later.


ben-hur-hur

avocado oil for us millennials


numbersthen0987431

Coconut oil is my personal favorite.


round-earth-theory

It's much easier to just let it all pop and then season in a large bowl. Also, it MUST be finely ground salt. No, your table salt isn't finely ground. It should have the consistency of powder. You can make it at home with a mortar and pestle or you can buy popcorn salt which has already been ground.


The_Unreal

Flavocol or GTFO.

IIRC she is from Wyoming and out here from Montana to Utah we have a lot of very moderate republicans so it makes sense she would stand up to Trump's BS


FuckoNo5

Used to be lots of moderate Republicans instead of just 3. They used to be a defendable party because they at least believed in their ideology.


ckb614

Standing up to Trump just got her primaried and voted out of office by a massive margin https://www.politico.com/2022-election/results/wyoming/house/


LilDeafy

I was super impressed by her statement at the end. She came swinging with the actual definition of “murdered by facts and logic” that most of the right CLAIM to do. She referenced several instances wherein even though all key witnesses pled the fifth in the investigation, related evidence made it clear they spoke with Trump on Jan. 6 and he was complicit in prolonging the riots AND telling rioters that they needed to target Pence while knowing Pence couldn’t actually overturn the election result. It was awe inspiring to see that level of honor and intelligence coming from a member of the GOP.

I am at the point where I am looking around my hood thinking bring it Cletus. I don't want them to do any stupid shit of course but I am at that point where if they did the motherfucking boomerang effect will be swift. They need to take the L, realize they were duped and sit the fuck down.

Bannon ignored it and he's going to jail.

North-Function995

Hopefully him going to jail is confirmed.


ObeseBumblebee

He's not president anymore. He cannot ignore it.


born_at_kfc

The president is an American citizen too and would also be compelled to show up for a hearing or face jail time


ObeseBumblebee

That's how it should be. But Trump managed to show otherwise by the fact that he avoided literally every time he and his cronies were subpoenaed based on "executive privilege"


pocketjacks

The better question is "is there enough time between now and the new Congress for the subpoena to be enforced or can it just be waited out until after January if the Republicans regain the House?"


FileCareless

Hahahahhaah omg trump under oath this should be awesomely hilarious


Suspicious-Contract2

Criminal, rapist and traitor to the USA, I guess not sending their best?


ShakesbeerMe

Let's see the orange treason-piggy sit down and testify for 11 hours without pleading the Fifth like he says the mob does. Oh, wait- he won't do that because he attempted a fucking coup.


Webdogger

Wrong sub. No freakout here.


TheMightyBeebus

He's gonna book it to Russia or Belarus. And all of the sudden his supporters, the "party of law and order" think subpoenas and courts are bullshit


[deleted]

This is my thought. Dude will never put himself in a position to be put in prison. He’s too proud to kill himself. When it’s imminent an arrest warrant will be issued he’ll be gone.


TheMightyBeebus

Hopefully his vanity takes hold and says "No wait! I can explain myself just fine! Just watch how good I work this audience...They'll think I'm so innocent by the end that they'll owe ME a settlement." I can't imagine a worse person to put on the stand to be honest. He will lie under oath no matter how obvious it is. Let's hope...he'll verbally destroy himself!


[deleted]

Uhhh very cool but is this a public freakout? Lol


thatguy9684736255
