    Oh god.

    During his testimony, he often sat with his shoulders slumped and his hands clasped between his legs. On occasion, he crossed his arms over his chest and looked down his nose.

    Like a toddler being called on his misbehavior.

    Trump testified that he believed he was worth more than his financial statements reflected, concluding: “Therefore, you have no case.”

    “I said it so it’s TRUUUUUU!” What is this shit? “It’s fake and gay and so are you!”

    “I have a castle,” he said at another.

    And I have a racecar bed. Jesus fucking Christ.

    “I am being forced to take the witness stand tomorrow in a SHAM trial…

    He never had to take the stand in the first place. He didn’t even have to be in the courtroom.

      I thought he did have to take the stand, but didn’t have to be there for the rest of the trial. AFAIK he’s compelled to testify (or take the fifth, but he and the kids have to do one or the other).
