Trump Pleaded The Fifth 97 Times To Avoid Admitting To Adultery
But he has no problem attacking Clinton over her husband’s infidelity.

In the summer of 1990, at the height of his bitter divorce from his first wife, Donald Trump was carrying on a very public extramarital affair with a former beauty queen, Marla Maples.

As part of the couple’s divorce proceedings, Ivana Trump’s lawyers asked him under oath about his dealings with other women and whether he had been faithful to his wife.

Instead of answering, Donald Trump invoked his Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination. Over the course of five depositions that summer, he was asked approximately 100 questions related to marital infidelity. He pleaded the Fifth on 97 of them.

“Donald preaches about his devotion to the Second Amendment, but it was the Fifth Amendment that was his favorite when he was deposed in the divorce with Ivana,” wrote biographer Wayne Barrett in his 1992 book, Trump: The Greatest Show on Earth. A New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement report later verified Barrett’s reporting on those depositions, which are still sealed.

For Trump, taking the Fifth seemed to work out well. He later bragged that he managed to settle the divorce without giving his first wife a penny more than required by the prenuptial agreement.

Now, with less than six weeks to go until Election Day, Trump is again focused on questions of marital infidelity and invoking Fifth Amendment rights. Only this time, the GOP presidential nominee has cast himself as the judge.

And everything looks different. Inside the moral and ethical bubble that Trump has created for himself, taking the Fifth 97 times is a savvy move, and powerful men aren’t constrained by marital vows. Outside that bubble, the Fifth Amendment is apparently used only by criminals, and adultery is a sin to be blamed on both spouses.

Following Trump’s disappointing debate performance Monday night, he said he deserved credit for not attacking his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, over her husband’s infidelity. His advisers and campaign surrogates fanned out across the airwaves to make the same case.

Campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said Trump was “polite and a gentleman” because he did not follow through on his threat to seat Gennifer Flowers, a former girlfriend of Bill Clinton, in the front row at the debate.

Rudy Giuliani, one of Trump’s closest advisers, said Hillary Clinton was “too stupid to be president” if she hadn’t realized all along that Monica Lewinsky, a White House intern, was telling the truth. As mayor of New York, Giuliani carried on his own very public extramarital affair, which cast a shadow over his administration.

Trump even holds Hillary Clinton, who has maintained her marriage for 41 years, partly to blame for her husband’s misdeeds. “She was an unbelievably nasty, mean enabler, and what she did to a lot of those women is disgraceful,” he said in May.

As for the Bill of Rights, Trump has focused in recent weeks on the fact that one of Clinton’s former staffers and two outside computer experts pleaded the Fifth during the investigation of her use of a private email server as secretary of state.

“Now the people who destroyed the emails are all pleading the Fifth Amendment in front of Congress today,” Trump said earlier this month at a rally. “Have you seen that is going on before Congress? Fifth Amendment, Fifth Amendment, Fifth Amendment — horrible, horrible.”

A spokeswoman for Trump did not respond to a request for comment.

I guess taking the faith in a divorce proceeding is equal to taking the fifth to keep yourself out of jail or avoiding a treason rap.


AHAHAHAHOINK

Maybe that's what Clinton should do instead of lying.

Why would anyone on this board get all riled up about someone having sex with someone else?

A lot of the best politicians (as in they do the right thing for the country) are some sleazy people in private.

I personally think Jimmy Carter is a good person, but he was a very poor president.

Some days you would swear this forum was on a Baptist web site.

Off the topic but that batshit crazy fucktard, the President of the Phillipines, who idolizes Hitler, seems to be a perfect match for Trump and his hateful views. When Toupee Trump loses the election in a landslide, dragging the GOP down with him, he can move there and build another casino that will go bankrupt shortly thereafter!

Comey should be as smart as Trump2016!

Putin and Hillary have both invaded countried on false pretenses, people have died because of their actions or inactions, neither has any problem lying to their followers to advance their agenda, both have concealed future plans for their countries, and both Putin, Hillary, and Duarte idolize some really bad people.

The evidence suggests that Chelsea is NOT Bills daughter. Every woman involved with Bill over the years has repeated one thing; Clinton said he is shooting blanks because he had mumps when he was a kid. Of the hundreds (thousands?) of women Bill has nailed, he only got Hillary pregnant? The math of that just boggles the mind.

Really? I guess I missed it... so what was her answer? It's all just a "vast right-wing conspiracy"? Oh wait - that was her "answer" 17 years ago. Has the media even brought up the topic in this campaign? When? In case you missed it, she hasn't been giving press conferences.

Duh....was it not Brass colored Toupee Trump who said he admired Putin just before he reamed his asshole with his bigoted tongue??

assup you idiot, that article is a hack job. everyone, including you, pig, have the right to refuse to answer. for any reason, civil or criminal. Trump had a prenup that might have included language about adultery by either party in the marriage and thus he might have had to pay more. so he said nothing. his right.

to equate Trump's using the 5th in a civil divorce vs. Clinton aides in a clearly criminal investigation is fucking absurd. just more goon babble from you, retard.
