‘He did have sex with those women’: Fox News guest says Trump will commit perjury on stand
Democratic strategist Jim Kessler predicted to Fox News that former President Donald Trump would commit perjury if he testifies in his hush money trial.
During a Sunday panel discussion, Kessler told host Mike Emanuel that it would be a mistake for Trump to pick his vice presidential running mate based on who defends him the best against criminal charges.
“I think if Trump is making his VP choice on who defends him best in a trial, it’s a dumb way to go about it,” Kessler explained. “Look, I don’t think these trials are going to have much effect on Donald Trump’s popularity unless he testifies.”
“If he testifies, then he’s going to commit perjury because he did have sex with those women, and there was hush money there,” he noted.
Kessler pointed out that voters “already know” about Trump’s affairs and legal problems.
“They’ve already taken that into account,” he observed. “So I think, you know, far be it for me to give Donald Trump advice, but he needs to pick someone that’s going to help him with women and with Republican moderate voters.”
“And if he goes with the ones who defend him best in the trial, he’s missing an opportunity.”
Former Playboy model Karen McDougal and adult film actress Stormy Daniels have both said they had affairs with Trump while he was married.
