If Trump tries to invoke the 5th Amendment to not testify at his own impeachment, it'll be a national joke.

If Trump tries to invoke the 5th Amendment to not testify at his own impeachment, it'll be a national joke. | HMM. INTRIGUING QUESTION. CRIMINAL DEFENDANTS HAVE THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT NOT TO TESTIFY AT THEIR OWN TRIALS PURSUANT TO THE 5TH AMENDMENT; BUT: CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYERS SURE AS HECK MAKE THEIR BEST ARGUMENTS AND PUT ON EVIDENCE, OR ELSE IT’S INEFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE OF COUNSEL. ALSO, IMPEACHMENT IS NOT PERFECTLY ANALOGOUS TO A CRIMINAL TRIAL. I THINK TRUMP AND, CERTAINLY, THE OTHER KEY WITNESSES SHOULD ALL TESTIFY BECAUSE THIS IS A MATTER OF NATIONAL IMPORTANCE. | image tagged in scales of justice,justice,criminal,trump impeachment,impeach trump,trump | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
