Least of all Trump who has the wealth and access to the best corrupt lawyers money can buy, not to mention in the past he's disparagingly referred to anyone taking the Fifth is from the Mob. In other words a criminal. Most people knew Trump has a criminal history so thats nothing new but the hypocrisy is laughable.
It's the same as applies in law here. Anyone questioned by the police is entitled to state "no comment". However if genuinely innocent you aren't helping yourself and only making matters a lot worse!
This is an interesting report; https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/202 ... -for-trump
I never said Trump is innocent of everything he's accused of, but are you actually suggesting that the Bidens/Clintons are ethical, honest, trustworthy politicians? If you say yes, than sorry, but it's your hypocrisy that's laughable. It is my firm believe that ALL politicians are corrupt to some extent.
Only you have mentioned the Clintons.
And if you want to make that comparison in investigating 'missing emails' from Benghazi alone the Republicans started investigations that involved 12 Federal agencies and 9 outside agencies issued 17 subpoenas that we fully complied with listened to testimony from 800 witnesses including Hilary Clinton herself who answered questions for 11 hours without pleading the 5th once. That was in just one year and there were others with many other investigations. The only two things they found were that Bill Clinton likes to get a blow job and Hilary Clinton, however capable she might be, is an exceptionally boring politician.
So let's have Trump on the stand for 11 hours and if he is able to answer every question and not have to take the 5th once. If that happens and he doesn't incriminate himself I will be far more gracious than you and concede that Trump is not as dishonest as he has been painted.
Ahh right
