That is well known by his lawyers & ghostwriter etc...
I watched " A few good men" last night just to see the "did you order a code red?!" scene. I had never watched the whole thing and Jack Nicholson played the sociopath commander to a T.
And how did they break the Narcissistic Sociopath Egomaniac he played?. Simple - get him in court and just ask him.
His grandiose sense of entitlement alone would not allow him to deny what he had done. He HAD to brag about it because he knew he was right.
The only question is how to arrange this on TV meltdown. Nancy & chuck did it very well, just need to bait him in with flattery or something shiny.
Maybe as a exchange to do his SOTU speech he will allow a on air "dialogue" with Nancy again & she can bait the bejeesus out of the rube.

(15,096 posts)Because the only way for him *not* to have a meltdown is for him to avoid getting caught in a back-and-forth with prosecutors where his off-the-cuff and instinctual responses make more problems than they solve. And to to that he would have to adopt the meek and mild and incompetent persona he displayed on that one civil suit deposition which was taped/made public.
Those tapes were largely ignored by the MSM, the resistance media, and the MAGAt media, but no such ignoring could take place if similar testimony were to occur now. EVERYONE would be watching his testimony.
For him to have to answer "I don't know" or "I don't remember" or "I didn't read it" or "Nobody told me" to literally hundreds of questions (just to avoid getting caught in lies or contradicting himself) in a public forum would be crushingly embarrassing for his big brain, best brain, best... uh... words, very good brain. And to appear so weak and passive and timid would crush his alpha/dominant/strongman image in the MAGA-verse (except for the dedicated handful who would claim he was really brilliantly manipulating the system, I suppose).
