  1. I don’t understand why this article says this about-face is surprising. It’s not, in the least. Just like he says he’s going to present evidence on anything. It’s complete bullshit.

    He was never going to testify.

  2. > In an unexpected about-face

    Absolutely not unexpected, he was never going to face up to cross examination.

  3. The seditionist has a lucid moment and realizes that he’s his own worst enemy.

  4. Afraid of exposing his diminished mental capacity, perhaps?

  5. Damn. I was really looking forward to him violating the gag order again, right in front of the judge.

  6. Of course he did. Can’t have a gag order and not have this mouth breather spew his shit if he can’t hold back.

  7. Alina Habba whatever her name is said that Trump couldn’t yell at the clerk he wanted no part of it. Because yes, all defendants should be allowed to harass the clerk

  8. He was totally gonna show his taxes until he was forced to, he totally would never take his POTUS salary…until he did in 2019, he’s totally on the level people!

  9. Honestly, he’s probably afraid the courtroom artist won’t draw him like the AI memes.

  10. He is the epidemy of a bully with no base to stand on. He can not defend nor backup any of his insults or lies. I still to this day can not fathom how any Veteran respects or gives him any solace, considering he avoided a draft multiple times to save his own ass, and not help our country.

  11. >…his team believes any further testimony would do more harm than good.

    “…any further presidency would do more harm than good.” FIFY

  12. “Wait, I can’t insult the judge or clerk? The prosecution gets to ask me questions? Oh no thanks”

    What a loser

  13. He really puts the cow in coward. But this is the smartest law-related decision he’s made in some time.

  14. “People that are afraid cower. President Trump doesn’t cower,” Habba, 7 Dec 23

  15. He’s a fucking coward. It’s always bluster for the mouth breathers. He never intended to testify. He will never debate. He isn’t smart enough to do anything other than indict himself or show how stupid he is.

  16. It’s obvious why Trump backed out. Putting him in front of a court room gives the prosecutors even more to work with because he doesn’t know when to shut the hell up and his own lawyers are petrified. He’ll say something stupid and self incriminating.

  17. It must be serious if Trump is running away from being center of attention.

  18. Kudos to that lawyer for getting his client to back down.

    Trump has largely lost, and a day of testimony of saying he can’t remember, pleading the fifth (in a civil trial), and making up answers to appear less stupid would result in bigger damages and Trump would have dragged the lawyer over it like he did in the rape/defamation trial.

  19. I can hear every late night comedian screaming into a pillow.

  20. I wonder if he (trump) doesn’t want any press/media coverage presenting him in a bad light in his run for the gop. He might realize his business is gone, I hope it is.
