Another day in crazyland...
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
■ John Dowd, then Trump’s personal attorney, staged a practice session to see if Trump would commit perjury if he were questioned by special counsel Robert Mueller, who is investigating possible collusion between the Trump 2016 campaign and Russia. Dowd peppered Trump with questions and elicited stumbles, contradictions, and lies.
■ In a meeting with Mueller, Dowd talked about the session and explained to Mueller why he was trying to keep the president from testifying. “I’m not going to sit there and let him look like an idiot. And you publish that transcript, because everything *** in Washington, and the guys overseas are going to say, ‘I told you he was an idiot. I told you he was a goddamn dumbbell. What are we dealing with this idiot for?’ ”
Dowd later advised Trump: “Don’t testify. It’s either that or an orange jumpsuit.” Trump insisted he would be “a real good witness.” “You are not a good witness,” Dowd said. He resigned the next morning.
