Back Off Lawyers, Let the Stable Genius Testify!

Donald Trump has said that not only is he willing to talk to Robert Mueller's investigative team - under oath - but that he is "looking forward to it" as well.   The Donald, a man who has spent much of his life in court on one side or the other of more than 1,300 lawsuits, knows his way around a courtroom.   A stable genius like Trump could tie Mueller's team in knots - you betcha he could!

But then those damned lawyers - Trump's lawyers - had to get involved.  They don't want him to testify under oath, apparently believing that their client has difficulty in telling the truth and maintaining a logical train of thought.  Don't they realize that Donald Trump is the truth?

Last night on The Late Show host Stephen Colbert and his guest, John Oliver, got into a discussion about whether Trump should testify before Mueller's team or not.  Oliver said:

"I don't doubt that he wants to talk, but he's going to have to physically get through his lawyers first.  He's going to have to eat his way through their hands over his mouth. ... He would perjure himself before he finished his name."

Colbert, however, posited the opposite point of view and said (perhaps a bit tongue-in-cheek) that he felt Trump should be allowed to testify - and Oliver quickly agreed.

If Dear Leader wants to prattle on to investigators, under oath, then by all means let him.

And America agrees.  A recent poll by Monmouth University found that more than 70% of Americans feel that Trump should testify before the Mueller team, and, if he does testify, more than 80% feel that it should be under oath.

Let the stable genius testify!
