Watergate Lawyer: If Donald Trump Tries To Fight Subpoenas, He Will Lose | The Last Word | MSNBC

[jackthebassman]

Under oath means nothing to trump, lying is normal to him.

[veramentegina]

yeah, he is gonna testify the same way he is gonna release his taxes..

[ramzabeoulve]

"without any thought" trumps presidency in a nutshell.

[benjamindemontgomery]

if He does not have the tapes. is that not proof that he tried to influence Comy?

[wtang]

It is a shame he got elected. It is more shameful to let him stay and represent US.

[maistromann]

I feel I have more respect for Comey for not saying a lot of things in the open setting, it shows even when given the chance to blast Trump, HE still has integrity as the former director of FBI

[greymouser]

All this will be window dressing on his financial dealings.

[elSethro]

He's 100% willing to testify under oath. He'd love to. But as you know, he's under a routine audit by the IRS: so obviously he can't testify until that's all finished up.

[LowStuff]

Put Trump in a public hearing for 3 hours just like with Comey. Trump is so scatterbrained that he'll forget his defense withing minutes and manage to incriminate himself.

[justme]

TrumP had to get a new phone, lol. He destroyed his and they wouldn't get him a new one until hearing was over! That's why no tweets.

[internetpeople]

It is still mind boggling that bunch of highly educated people with good intentions can't bring down this 8th-grade juvenile pyscho

[shingshongshamalama]

"It's hard to imagine the president being able to use an iPhone to record his conversation."

Yeah that pretty much sums up Trump doesn't it.

[kasparov]

Can't they just hook Trump up to a polygraph and ask him questions? He can obviously lie under oath.

[joeltay]

Screw House of Cards. This is more entertaining.

[JulieK-]

Jesus he is such a liar! I think he is so delusional he believes his his own lies.

[donqphotography]

--> My money's on Comey recording his convos with Trump.

[shokan]

Lol Trump Supporters have nothing to say..

[AdrianColley]

If there were recordings, they have certainly been deleted by now. Trump's lawyer denied categorically that Trump asked Comey for loyalty; and he wouldn't have risked saying that without checking with his client whether there were tapes that would prove him wrong.

[lynw]

why doesn't a journalist ask Trump "Why did you ask Sessions and Jarud Kushner to leave the room?" Also "If you dispute Comey's version, then what was discussed ?"

[peterdeed]

Follow the money because this is cardie achilles heel. Greed will bring the orange cheeto down
