CNN chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said Thursday on “The Situation Room” that if former President Donald Trump and his children Ivanka and Don Jr. plead the Fifth when testifying in the civil suit by the state of New York, the jury could draw an “adverse inference.”

Anchor Wolf Blitzer said, “Former President Trump and his kids argued that sitting for a deposition would violate, they say, their constitutional rights; this judge certainly disagreed. What do you make of this ruling?”

You either have the goods on something or you do not.

I suspect they have nothing but will, should Donald/Donald Jr have a slip of tongue, which will be exploited for political mischief sake

The fact that he didn’t lose his job shows that he has a lot of pull over at CNN.

Did he intimate this brilliant deduction over a zoom call? Was he jerking around? Did any of it end with his “O” face?

Good summary; I think this basically is the law everywhere in the US in both civil and administrative proceedings.

Toobin, by the way, is a victim of self-abuse. If he agreed with your analysis, it would be one of two times in a day when he was correct (like a stopped clock).

Considering the whole thing is just a political vendetta, I would say as little as possible.

You can only say that if you actually don’t. Otherwise it’s perjury. The law is not like TV or the movies. If you get on the stand and claim not to recall something and there is evidence that you do, that’s a problem.

It’s conventional wisdom a Presidential candidate should not take the Fifth. PDJT is not conventional.
