Asked 100 questions about his infidelity , the weasel pleaded the fifth amendment 97 times.
As part of the couples divorce proceedings, Ivana Trumps lawyers asked him under oath about his dealings with other women and whether he had been faithful to his wife......
So Mr. Don (Duck that issue) pleaded the fifth so as not to incriminate himself.
On Wednesday, Trump likened anyone who takes the Fifth to a criminal. So there are five of them taking the Fifth Amendment, like you see on the mob, right? he said at another rally in Iowa, inflating the number by two. The mob takes the Fifth Amendment. If youre innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?
This was precisely the question that Ivana Trumps lawyer posed to her husband during those depositions 26 years ago, according to Barrett the biographer. The lawyer, Michael Kennedy, also warned Donald Trump that by taking the Fifth so many times, he was giving the court grounds to draw a reasonable inference that he had committed adultery.

(52,227 posts)1. i don't think a court can legally draw any inference from someone taking the fifth
that would defeat the whole point.
but the rest of us are certainly free to make that inference!

It's almost as if Trump accuses other people of behavior he finds personally despicable while indulging in that very behavior himself. There's probably a German word like schadensigmund for that, but we surely don't have such a word in English.

I am afraid that is all I can see. It's just like this big anal pore in the middle of his face.

to get something similar to what he has on his head today
