‘If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth?’

Of course, scum like you will always support any lies any disinformation coming from trumps mouth. The worst day of your miserable life was the day trump was unable to steal another 4 year term from the American people.

You are an idiot. I believe this is the first time I have ever said that about somebody at this site. You know nothing at all about me and have no ability to judge what I think simply because you do not know what I think.

As an attorney you know how inappropriate it is to suggest that simply remaining silent is an admission of guilt. I would recommend to anybody at all getting questioned by anybody with an objective to take them down to simply remain silent.

Yes, it would be in a courtroom or say, if you were president of the United States.

Coming from you and your kind, its a badge of honor. Of course you have never said it about anyone on your site, its just a bunch of your employees playing make believe. You have never had a truly serious message board.

He also says dumb crap like "Why are you pleading the fifth?" when he knows that if he was Trump's attorney he would tell him to shut up regardless of guilt or innocence.

Funny how Jarod never gets anything legal right nor when asked a direct legal question does he answer. All of the sudden he runs silent, runs deep.

If you are President of the USA and you are under questioning, you would say things like "that depends on what the definition of is is".. or "I do not recall"...

The reality is, remaining silent or saying nothing while talking a bunch have little to no difference.

Another reality: If you were his attorney you would tell him to remain silent.

I know for a fact folks at that level far more often get in trouble getting caught in a "lie" during testimony (one that usually is them just forgetting something then remembering later) than they ever do for the supposed crime they are supposed to be investigating. Even in innocence silence is golden.

I absolutely would tell any guilty client to take the fifth. If I’m not acting as an attorney I’d point out what taking the fifth means. It’s a criminals right not to incriminate himself, but the fact of taking the 5th You are saying that what you would say would be incriminating.

Trump lies about everything and anything. The question should be is when has he ever told the truth?

"I did not have sex with that woman" is NOT something you should say, though........

That is also incorrect and you flat know it.

Remaining silent is your right and cannot be used as evidence against them, it is legally unethical and you flat know it. If you tried to bring that up as a reason to bring him to trial you would fail and you may be censured.

More often than not those who are put in prison for crimes they did not commit are there because they talked when they should have remained silent.

Saying “only criminals take the 5th” is inappropriate for a president.
