Trump Spews 'Tirade of Same Old Lies' But Pleads the Fifth in New York AG Probe

vendredi 12 août 2022 à 10:33

The corrupter said, "Only guilty people and mobsters plead the Fifth." This week, he did just that, while being questioned for a lawsuit.

It's tempting to say, "He's guilty, or he's a mobster — he said so himself!" But it's wrong to say that, because the "rule" he cited was bullshit all along. To treat it as valid is to undermine the Fifth Amendment itself, and we must not do that.

We have plenty of other reasons to believe that the corrupter is guilty of trying to overthrow the US government and seize power, as well as swindling in his fund-raising.

Not yet proof that can put him away, though.
