Most criminals try to avoid getting caught. Trump does the same and whines about "the greatest witchunt in history" for the fify-eleventh time. He's even embarrassing by criminal standards.

They’re coming after children !!! 😂 she’s 40 and he’s 42.. but okay! 😂

I like ex-Presidents who don’t need to plead the 5th.

[Beetwate]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 remember what he said! “Only the guilty plea the fifth”

They are probably calling all of their lawyers for a 21 day pow-wow of prep for lying

It’s actually quite common for criminals to have to defend themselves. 🤔

How about that Hunter Biden trial that started on Monday? 5 kids from 5 different women. The guy isn't paying any child support. Quite "deplorable".

Remove the Charity status of American churches and fund Education. Don't let this madness happen again.

I know it'll be hard for them to remember the words so I'll write them in crayon on an index card:

"Under advice of counsel I exercise my Fifth Amendment right and refuse to answer the question."

Trump knows he’s guilty but he’s so narcissistic he still thinks he’s going to get away with it. He should have left the country, he had plenty of time to run!

[foxmyx]

He'll take the 5th Amendment 500 times. Period.

This ruling in no way impacts Donald Trump's right to refuse to testify under the 5th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

[theydontknow]

So unfair what they do to me. It's a crime to investigate my crimes.

Too bad this is only a civil case. Hope their testimonies, or their lack there of, will flow into the criminal case being put together.

Sir what is the best way to make money from crypto trading/stock

“I don’t pay taxes because I’m smart.” Yup! 😂 lol

[NicoleAZ]

Hahahahahaha. About time that family gets their due. This will be fun to watch. AG James is not playing.

[klondike]

Tweety started his defense pleading ignorance of tax & business laws. Now he's just pleading flat-out stupidity.

21 days for them to figure something out.

Whereas We’d be in jail. Very cute
