31. He is a terrible witness for himself

I read a transcript of one of his depositions that somehow became public during the campaign and he is an atrocious witness.

He contradicts himself and rambles and provides information that hasn’t even been asked for. I would venture to guess that his language skills have been cheerier rated markedly since that deposition and now he could probably be counted on to show irritation, confusion, and will probably not remember many key thanks.
