Trump's lawyer now being resuscitated

Trump is a renegade client.

And an idiot. Committing to testifying under oath is something negotiated by counsel, not something you agree to by shooting off your mouth.

All to be expected from this man.

He's got tricks...so...I think he's depending on tricks to be pulled out of his sleeves.

Question...with all his zillions of lawsuits​...had he ever testified or given a Deposition in the last 16 years?

Unfortunately he's dragging our country around for the show, and this isn't going to stand. Someone has to lead him off the stage.

Those that represent themselves have an idiot for a client... but what about those poor jokers who actually have idiots for clients?

really? He will renege Monday. This is another "I will provide my tax returns".

First questions asked if he does:

Do you have any tapes of any of the meeting between you and Comey?

Trump will say no because it is bullshit.

Mr. President your tweet regarding those tapes was a lie?

or the wiretapping, etc. all go to his credibility.

He's guilty as sin, doesn't follow directions, and doesn't pay. Who'd want a client like that? A crappy lawyer who is willing to do what ever he has to in the hopes of getting a couple of bucks.
