Trump Pleaded The Fifth 97 Times To Avoid Admitting To Adultery

In the summer of 1990, at the height of his bitter divorce from his first wife, Donald Trump was carrying on a very public extramarital affair with a former beauty queen, Marla Maples.

As part of the couple’s divorce proceedings, Ivana Trump’s lawyers asked him under oath about his dealings with other women and whether he had been faithful to his wife.

Instead of answering, Donald Trump invoked his Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination. Over the course of five depositions that summer, he was asked approximately 100 questions related to marital infidelity. He pleaded the Fifth on 97 of them.

at the debate how it was suspicious that the IT guy for Hillary's server pleaded the 5th?

Perhaps he has experience pleading the 5th due to his own guilt...

avoid the truth...this is not the asshat we want to run this country..and his supporters love him because he is a "straight talker." In reality he is a waste of human flesh.
