No wonder his lawyers are so concerned about him having to testify, he seems fundamentally incapable of telling the truth.
Will be funny when GOP starts saying perjury is no big deal. Then immediately sad.
They've already said that, what are you talking about? And that's was during Iran contra.

No shit because he's a mob puppet. And naive America is to dumb to see organized crime using the street and stupid mentally restricted, poor and incorrigible people to do their dirty work
Fuck up Americas Mafia. Giuliani never really cleaned crime up in NY, he joined/got owned by it. Now look what we got going on.
Americas never going to change if Americans keep their heads in easily manipulated, paid for marketed media, and politics.
Quit relying on people that can and will rape your life if they need to.
Rudy pushed out the Italians and invited the Russians in to fill the vacuum.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that perjury? At this rate, Trump really could commit murder in public and never see jail.
Perjury is complicated to prove.
The concern is making him into the martyr that he's made himself into.
His supporters will not be fed anything factual about the events.
Perjury is complicated to prove.
That's depressing, but thanks for pointing it out. When the presiding judge states that your sworn testimony is untrue, I would have thought that was enough.
In this case, it wasn't his testimony but his defense as to why he didn't violate his gag order for a second time. I'm not strictly sure if you can perjure yourself in your defense for such a situation, but either way it was the judge just not buying his excuse.
I want to know why we care about them at this point. They sent their best and brightest on Jan. 6. I remain unimpressed.
Perjury is only for statements made under oath in open court, and as noted below it's hard to prove that someone knew they where lying.
Liar is found to be lying.
Color me shocked.
Is that like a yellowish-white color?
I'm picturing Pikachu lightning...
I'm thinking more parchment maybe?
sums up him quite good, would add petty and craven sociopath
“Referring to the thing trump said which was hollow and untrue…”
“Do you realize how little that narrows it down?”
