He said today he will absolutely testify under oath. Wow. Testify..not tell the truth. ETA: he'll throw everyone under the bus while making himself a victim. I fully agree it will be a train wreck. I bet Mueller is excited though.

Not only did he say that he’d testify under oath, he went on to say that Hilary did not talk to the FBI under oath, so yes, he will most definitely testify under oath!
Such a petty idiot!

Any offer made by 45 is good for about three minutes. I believe he is a lifetime liar who would probably fool the machines, he is that good. Hope lies in his extreme arrogance and ability to believe his own myth, though. He will lie and something, probably minor, will lead him to bluster on, embroider and screw up.
About those falling tourist numbers mentioned upthread: we were in the intense planning phase of our trip as you ran your primaries then went on to the election. I have posted before about my reluctance to give any props, no matter how small my visit is, to 45. We enjoyed most of our time. However, we are currently in China and Russia is next.
None of these stamps (or the others along the way) in our passports implies approval of the man at the top. However, I do not rate Xi or Putin as either insane or as idiots, that much I will say.

I found it—
“The President also slammed Hillary Clinton for not being under oath during her interview with the FBI in 2016 which focused on her use of a private email server during her time as secretary of state. "She didn't do it under oath, but I would do it under oath and you know she didn't do it under oath," he said. "Oh, I would do it under oath."

Trump lawyer clarifies president wasn’t volunteering for Mueller grand juryBY BRETT SAMUELS - 01/24/18 09:02 PM EST White House lawyer Ty Cobb clarified Wednesday night that President Trump is ready to meet with special counsel Robert Mueller, but will be guided by his attorneys on such a meeting, The New York Times reported. Trump told reporters earlier Wednesday night that he would speak with Mueller under oath. He added that he expects an interview to occur in the next two to three weeks, but said his lawyers are still determining the specifics. Cobb told The New York Times that Trump was speaking hurriedly, and only meant that he is willing to meet with the special counsel, not that he will speak in front of a grand jury.CNN reported Wednesday that Mueller intends to question Trump about his interactions with former FBI Director James Comey and former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn. Mueller is conducting a criminal investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. The probe has thus far led to two indictments and two guilty pleas. Mueller's probe has expanded into Trump's cabinet, as his team interviewed Attorney General Jeff Sessions last week. Trump has repeatedly railed against the investigation, calling it a "witch hunt" and vowing there was no collusion. thehill.com/homenews/administration/370628-trump-lawyer-clarifies-president-wasnt-volunteering-for-mueller-grand

ETA: he'll throw everyone under the bus while making himself a victim. yes, but- Mueller already TALKED to everyone else- so if Trump's story doesn't jive with theirs, then he's screwed. As the President, he is NOT above the law; he can be subpoenaed. If he chooses not to be questioned and pleads the Fifth, it's as good as admitting guilt. So he has to testify. (I hope) And the analyst I heard on MSNBC said it would most likely be videotaped, too- just like Clinton's was. Also so there's no 'that's not what I said' later from him (since we know he's a master at that game). ETA: I believe Trump is just arrogant enough to think he's FINE to talk to Mueller without his attorneys giving him coaching. And that will (hopefullY) be his undoing.

If he needs to "win", to top Hillary, as usual, and this leads him to testify under oath, I will take that, gladly. Despite my belief he would beat the machines, having had so much practice lying, all day, every day, his entire life. My only hope is that his ego, his utter belief that his saying so makes it so, will lead to him tripping himself up. That would be sweet indeed. While I am at it, please peas, educate me. In leaving himself an "out" by saying he will do as his lawyers advise, he cannot be saying the lawyers' obvious advice to not testify can override other legal processes, surely? The Constitution?

I heard on NPR this morning that he can be subpoenaed, but that his lawyers may fight the subpoena. And of course, if he is compelled to testify, he can just take the 5th. So no, he can’t be forced to actually give answers. That’s my understanding. But one of our resident attorneys may have better information.

“Let's be clear about what's happening right now.
On multiple fronts, it has fallen to Dems to defend the basic workings of our government against GOP efforts to pervert and manipulate them, all to shield Trump from accountability.

“Our system is designed to handle Trump. It is not designed in any way to handle the total corruption of an entire party with Trump controlling the whole government.”

On his way to Davos.
There is no way he will not continue to embarrass the majority in the US thanks to his insecurity, neediness and comprehension issues.

I have heard many many legal experts explain that talking to Mueller(FBI) and answering questions falsely is a crime, hello Flynn and Popodopo. Testifying under "oath" is what you do when facing the Grand Jury. Trump's lawyers were having a heart attack when he stupidly offered himself to the GJ. Hillary didn't testify under oath because the FBI felt and corroborated her answers were truthful therefore no need to supoena her for a GJ testimony "under oath".

Almost the right color too.
BTW: Watching a bit of TV and dt standing/sitting in front of his glorious gold curtains makes him look more 'colorful', he matches the glow. He would do better in front of another color.

DOJ says missing FBI texts recovered, senator backs off 'secret society' claimMIKE LEVINE Updated 10 mins ago The growing saga over text messages sent between two FBI colleagues who briefly worked on special counsel Robert Mueller's team took some unexpected turns Thursday, as a cache of missing messages characterized by President Donald Trump as a major scandal had been recovered and as a top Republican backed off a claim that FBI agents formed a "secret society" to undermine Trump. abc7ny.com/news/doj-says-missing-fbi-texts-recovered-senator-backs-off-secret-society-claim/2989111/

The White House asked to borrow a van Gogh. The Guggenheim offered a gold toilet instead. I was just hearing about that on BBC news! I seriously love those people at the Guggenheim right now "I'm sorry that painting is not available to you Mr Trump...yes, we lent it to Spain, but we won't let you have it...here have this well used toilet instead" Perfect response.

Last night on Rachel she listed all the people trump was taking with him to Davos minus his wife and Kelly.
It was quite a group and she coukdn’t figure out why he was taking all those folks.
Half watching MSNBC and they have a video of trump at Davos walking someplace and he is surrounded by his group and it occurred to me why.
So he would always have someone around him. Remember the get together he went to and a couple of pictures surfaced of him sitting by himself while other leaders were standing behind him talking.

NY Times... “Exclusive: President Trump ordered the firing in June of Robert Mueller, the special counsel. The top White House lawyer threatened to quit.” I have said this before and I will say this again. For someone who claims he is innocent he sure acts guilty. Whatever he is hiding must be a doozy.

Kyle Griffin....
“A growing number of Davos attendees are planning to walk out of Trump’s speech at the World Economic Forum this Friday, several conference-goers told Quartz, to protest his remarks about African countries.”
Oh oh and I hope so and I hope a lot more join in.
