      I was a judge in my district court for twelve years, and yes, you're correct. The best thing for a witness, and a defendant, is to be honest. If not, an experienced judge, or juror, will spot dishonesty and a lie immidiately. It' no use trying.

      @@user-nu7kk4uw6k People, in tests, are not quite as good as you think at spotting liars just from demeanour. But I agree people should always tell the truth. First and foremost because it's the right thing to do, naturally, but if that doesn't convince them, because lying is not as easy as people think- just one lie brought out in x examination and the jury will start to think everything you say may be a lie. And you could, and IMO should, be done for perjury. In the UK we take perjury more seriously. Here, you can find yourself in jail for years for it- up to a maximum of 7 years (and/or a fine). (Though we don't prosecute people often enough for it IMO.)

He tells us what’s happening but even more than that, he looks into a person’s nature and draws out for us the little things that reveal a person’s purposes. And it all comes alive for us. If I, long retired, were still teaching, I would have my students watch these episodes, not as political arguments but as masterpieces of reflections on human nature. Beautiful work. Excellent.⭐️

      Trump will NEVER go to jail, and with his corrupt, manipulative Republican Party pulling the strings, he may indeed get the NON DEMOCRATIC amount of Electoral College Votes he needs to get back into the White House.
      Thus he will never face Justice.

For those who are too young to know who Walter Cronkite was, you'd have to go back and watch the footage from the day JFK was assassinated to see the comparison.
