Trump Suggests He’ll ‘Consider’ Testifying In Impeachment Inquiry Despite Refusal To Cooperate

Chris White on November 18, 2019

President Donald Trump said Monday that he will “strongly consider” testifying in the House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry.

“Even though I did nothing wrong, and don’t like giving credibility to this No Due Process Hoax, I like the idea & will, in order to get Congress focused again, strongly consider it!” the president said in a tweet, referring to his possible testimony.

The comment came after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggested on Sunday’s “Face the Nation” that the president could “come right before the committee and talk … or he could do it in writing.”

The Trump administration is directing officials not to comply with the inquiry, which sprang up after Trump requested Ukraine’s president investigate former Vice President Joe Biden’s son’s business ties in the country. House Democrats voted in support of an impeachment inquiry in October.

  • Hahahaha Schiff will have to make a rule. Sweet Geesus! They can't have the President come in there and testify, gonna be a s--t show, now.

  • This COUNTRY IS falling apart with the house IMPEACHMENT WITCH HUNT AND THE DO NOTHING DEMOCRATS FOR 3 YEARS!! WE THE PEOPLE ARE FEDUP WITH UNLAWFUL AGENDAS THAT IS AGAINST OUR PRESIDENT!! START DOING YOUR JOB IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES! STOP THE DOUBLE STANDARD OF JUSTICE!!!!!!

  • I know you're frustrated Mr. President and want to tell your side of the story, but for 2-1/2 years the Mueller investigation was looking for a crime and never found one. Don't make the mistake of testifying at this "sham of an impeachment inquiry" because they'll twist whatever you say, then claim you lied under oath, then they'll have their crime and will impeach you for perjury which is a misdemeanor. This will be tough because you and everybody in this country knows that the Democrats have perfected the "art of lying".

  • This COUNTRY IS FALLING APART with the house impeachment witch hunt and the do NOTHING Democrats for 3 years

  • Please, do not testify, orally or in writing. Everyday the Democrats expose their impeachment attacks as baseless and and demonstrate their contempt for due process. Schiff and Pelosi look more and more like crazy, Trump hating politicians deathly afraid that without impeachment, Trump will win in 2020. Please don't give them any chance to spin your testimony.

  • Please President do not fall into their trap. It will only hurt you. they twist and turn your words against you. They do not play fair.

  • I would hope he's just yanking their chain again, and is not seriously considering giving them the time of day in their BOGUS impeachment attempt, much LESS agreeing to testify, as they will SURELY find a way to LIE ABOUT IT and distort everything he said to make him look guilty. Remember, they have the media in their corner, who will repeat ANY LIE they are told to repeat by the Dems, and pass it off as NEWS to a lot of people who STILL don't understand that the "free" media is no longer FREE, but is now just the propaganda division of the corrupt DEM Party.

  • I sure hope he doesn't do that. It will be--at the very LEAST--a "perjury trap" similar to what they did to Gen. Flynn, and at WORSE, they will LIE ABOUT and DISTORT EVERYTHING he says, and the ever-complicit media will REPEAT their lies!

    He should NEVER trust these VIPERS to that extent. They CANNOT be trusted to play straight with him, he should know that by now! Besides that, testifying for their WITCH HUNT just gives credence to the Dems' ongoing coup, instead of letting it play out and be revealed for the BS POLITICAL COUP ATTEMPT it really is.
