Trump suggests he’ll testify in writing in impeachment probe
Market Watch ^ | 11/18/19 | Robert Schroeder

Posted on 11/18/2019 8:51:38 AM PST by Libloather

President Donald Trump suggested Monday he’ll testify in writing as House Democrats press on with their impeachment probe, even as he continued to insist he’d done nothing wrong.

Trump was responding to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who invited him to testify in front of investigators ahead of a week that will see several key witnesses appear publicly. The California Democrat said Trump is welcome to appear or answer questions in writing, if he chooses.

“Even though I did nothing wrong, and don’t like giving credibility to this No Due Process Hoax, I like the idea & will, in order to get Congress focused again, strongly consider it!” Trump said. Pelosi made her suggestion in an interview that aired Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

“It’s a trap...”

I’m not sure in which direction.

Don’t think Pelosi considered the Prez responding positively. Could get interesting. The Rats will now lend credence to the their impeachment folly.

I would just ignore them until the Senate trial, if there is one.

One word “wrong” or not perfectly legally right according to lawyers who will spend hundreds of hours poring over legal records and decisions.....and it’s a process crime.

Martha Stewart, Roger Stone, many more. Twenty hours of testimony will contain one line contradicting the statement “I arranged to sign that on Tuesday.”
No, the record shows it was Monday. You are guilty of a misleading statement which shows intent of perjury under oath.
You were aware of the call on Monday.

This may be brilliant and shrewd.

The media cannot boycott POTUS written responses to Democrat questions. The answers can contain concise one sentence answers, followed by paragraphs of supporting logic and facts.

The entire narrative could be shifted.

Than again, maybe not.

Please reconsider, Mr. President. If it’s ok with them it’s very bad for you — and for America.

You’re not accountable to them, and your acceptance of any terms of theirs lends the proceedings a dignity it certainly does not deserve.

I think (I hope) so. String them along with leanings of participation, then slam the door shut on the Democrat/Left Party and crush the hopes of their whacked-out base ... again and again and again ...

They didn’t think he’d release the phone call transcript either...

President Trump knows exactly what he’s doing...

Democrats have to vote this down in the house. If it goes to the Senate for Trial where the republicans control the rules, then...

Demo-rats may try to stretch this out as long as possible in the house, hoping to damage Trump. But I can't believe they are stupid enough to send this to the Senate and spring the trap on themselves.
