It's Also Not A Legal Defense

Thanks to the 5th Amendment, we'll never see Trump in court answering these charges from the witness stand, under oath.

In England, it would be odd if he didn't testify.

I'm not knocking the 5th Amendment, I'm just saying it's not the only way to conduct criminal trials.

It would be fun to see Trump on the stand in his own defense.  It's really only the 5th Amendment that's kept him from being buried under the jail by now.
And boy are they having fun! Trump’s lawyers, on the other hand, are not having fun.

Still, we can know the company Trump keeps:
I'm not sure that just being in Manhattan is a problem for the jury pool for Trump anymore. Being anywhere among civilized people is more of the problem, now.
