Donald J. Trump, the first U.S. president to become a felon, excoriated prosecutors and the judge in his criminal case and ran through a litany of false statements as he spoke to reporters and a small crowd of vetted supporters at Trump Tower in Midtown Manhattan.
Oh, yeah. We all know. lol. But, for better or worse, he’s entitled to the same constitutional protections as the rest of us (despite the fact he routinely wipes his ass with it).
Yes, it can’t impact the trial, that he didn’t testify. Doesn’t mean we can’t infer, out here away from the court, that he put up a big front in public and slunk away with his tail between his legs in court, because he knew he was guilty and would only have made things worse if he testified, along with earning some counts of perjury.
