1. think being under oath would do anything to Trump?

5. Help the prosecution for a plethora of criminal conduct.

It's win/win/win for us:

He lies, it can be used against him.

He declined to answer on advice of counsel, he looks guilty.

He tells the truth (c'mon, stop laughing) it's an admission of guilt.

9. I'm notta lawyer, but I think anything he says can be used as evidence of intent

and usually, political convictions are about proving criminal intent: Using government power and influence for personal gain. There is usually already proof of the crime. You just have to prove it was intentional, and not some kind of accident or mistake.

11. I'm a retired attorney. I want him under oath.

It'll never happen, but Joe should suggest it so it's out there.

If trump listened to his attorneys he'd cancel the debate. Heaven knows it would probably be the first time he listened to them.
