A this point after what they have put Trump and us through I really don’t care what he does. Trump can do no wrong. Just run and win.

But that’s what he said guilty mob members do. Plead the 5th.
*********
Trump still needs to invoke the 5th. If he says anything at all, even if it’s true, his response can be portrayed as a lie to a biased jury of Trump haters, and they will convict him regardless of the truth.

-——fraudulent and misleading asset valuations to obtain economic benefits.”——

As a matter of interest, there is evidence in many, many, Forbes issues where there was an ongoing correspondence concerning the Trump net worth. The correspondence between Forbes and Trump centered around the Forbes Billionaires annual issue wherein a value was attached to a billionaires name.

Trump maintained that Forbes always undervalued his holdings.

Forbes maintained that the valuation was obtained from various documents available to the researchers who did nothing except place a value on the net worth of the various billionaires.

This ongoing battle is well described in the Forbes 100th anniversary issue published in September 2017 while Donald Trump was president.

So, if Steve Forbes is subpoenaed, he can be forced to produce a near endless correspondence on the subject of Trump asset valuation.

Good. Trump doesn’t owe these haters anything but the minimum. Which is what all of us owe liberal haters: as little as humanly possible.

We all have that risk with a jury. Basically what you’re saying is the jury system doesn’t work.

But here’s your problem. Pleading the fifth doesn’t help him with that jury if they’re hell bent on convicting him in any circumstance.
