@legaldad: Court orders Trump to sit for deposition in BBC defamation case not later than December 11. #news #politics #media

Romulan22 :

Can bbc counter sue him or does he simply have nothing to lose by winning a settlement or not or winning the case and get the 10 bill or not??

agunn1989 :

What happens if he doesn’t show up for that either? Does the court toss out the suit?

IU Reno :

Can they call Jack Smith? If yes, would Trump have to be present?

FeatFan :

He’ll just drop the suit

Moses :

Thanks for explaining!

Sara (no H) :

You know his "handlers" won't let that happen. He's in no mental shape to do that.

Bonnz :

He will never do it. The case will get tossed and then he will call the judge a “dumpcrat” and say the system is rigged against him or some bs like that

user8633356899835 :

oh dear! don't you just hate us Brits😁😁😁

Ming The Magnificent :

Only Donald Trump could be deposed 😏

Louis Emerson :

Based on his recent rallies, I’d say this isn’t his first encounter with BBC.

Blackacre1808 :

Calling Jack Smith as a witness is Chef's Kiss

GayleM SouthSide :

I love this for him!

CPinho :

A suit he started.

Jedi :

What is the allowable scope of the questioning? Do the questions only have to be related to the lawsuit ie showing financial harm or can they be a much wider scope? Say Epstein file related?

Cleo The Bouvier :

He will cancel again or fail to appear. He wants the judge to dismiss so he can blame them. Hopefully the judge doesn’t fall for these tactics and he’ll have no choice but to drop the suit himself. Ideally with court costs and an order for defendants legal fees

pretty hate machine :

correct me if I'm wrong but didn't ABC just pay him off because they needed something from his administration?

Hank Flowers :

fry his ass

Kevin Southward :

Ha ha. He won’t sit for this deposition. It’s got to kill him to bail on all of that $

gailmhound :

Leaving it until at the very end of discovery is a huge error. He will not show up. Period. I only hope discovery can be extended.

Husker_72 :

I plead the 5th I plead the 5th I plead the 5th I plead the 5th x 400 🤣🤣🤣

claire_r24 :

The BBC can’t settle even if they wanted to - it’s funded by the British public and they can’t use the (very limited funds) in that way and their own rules don’t allow it!

Sammich :

Phoenix Guy :

He picked an organization to sue that has more money and well-trained lawyers than anyone around. Not to mention access to information.

Trex :

If he is deposed, will we get to see it? 😃 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

gingerandxena :

Oh, he'll just take the shift
