Trump testifying live before Jan. 6 committee would require 'negotiation,' Kinzinger says

The House Jan. 6 committee would negotiate with Donald Trump if he offered to testify live in response to a subpoena, Rep. Adam Kinzinger said Sunday

What happened to we dont negotiate with terrorists?

The House Jan. 6 committee investigating last year's Capitol riot would need to negotiate with former President Donald Trump if he were to offer to testify live in response to the panel's subpoena, Rep. Adam Kinzinger said Sunday.

"I think that's going to be a negotiation," Kinzinger, R-Ill., a member of the committee, told ABC "This Week" anchor George Stephanopoulos. "I'll only address that when we know for sure whether or not the president has tried to push to come in and talk to us live."

"He's made it clear he has nothing to hide, [that's] what he said. So he should come in on the day we asked him to come in. If he pushes off beyond that, we'll figure out what to do next," Kinzinger said.

He dodged Stephanopoulos' question on whether Trump should be held in criminal contempt if he does not comply with the subpoena.

"Do you believe that the Justice Department, if the president refuses, should hold him in criminal contempt?" Stephanopoulos asked.

NO NEGOTIATION. That is all.

No way in hell Trump will testify under oath

He said under the right conditions he would consider it... he wants a turn at the spinning wheel... he wants his side of the story told...

I think the J6 Committee should agree to have testimony from the FPOTUS live on TV.

They of course can provide some basic ground rules for the testimony.

For example, if a question is asked about the events of January 6th and the FPOTUS starts into a screed having nothing to do with January 6th and attempts to deflect with false information about the November election, then the Chairman or Vice-Chairman should have a button that does two things:

• (A) Mutes the microphone,
• (B) Causes the media news feed video camera to end and shift the camera from the FPOTUS to either the Chairman or Vice-Chairman (whichever activates the switch).

The Chair (or Vice-Chair) can then inform the FPOTUS that live feed will be restored only for responses germane to the question asked.

Similar to a Judge in Court preventing a witness from going off into non relevant rants when questioned by either the Defense Attorney or Prosecutor.

Fully support the FPOTUS having a chance to respond to Committee questions regarding the events of January 6th.

They won't let him.

Trump isn't important to them.

The narrative is what's important.

 

[Clipper]

They're TERRIFIED! It's so much fun!

Trump also said he'd testify in the Mueller probe but changed his mind when his keepers reminded him that he's a lying pile of shit who would get nailed with a perjury charge if he testified under oath. Which is what will happen if he shows up for a Jan. 6 hearing.

Personally I hope he does testify because he'll lie theu his fucking teeth just like he does about everything else.

Throw his ass in jail until he does, just like he treated people as president.

lol

22 days isn't enough time, dimwit.

You fuckers have had two years already and you haven't done it.

You could have done it on day one.

Proving what I said from the git go

It's all about the grandstanding and not an iota about truth or justice

These Democrap Stalinists are true scumbags.

I agree...

 

[Catman51]

lol

This is how skeert they are of Trump.

Everyone else get subpoenas and contempt.

Trump gets "negotiation" would require him to only answer any questions they have set up in the manner they waqnt.

lol lmao

And that "negotiation" would require that he only answer any trap question that they come up with in the manner they say, regqardless of the truth.

So far, the only "false" information on display is provided by this commission. With no chance of rebuttal. A rigged game.

 

[Coyote]

He already said he would if it was televised live.

What is the Shit Show Committee afraid of?

He “said”.

He says a lot. But not under oath.

 

[easyt65]

What happened to we dont negotiate with terrorists?

STFU, you detanged lunatic.

I stopped reading your crap at this point, as you proved you are a mentally unstable, hate-driven, TDS-suffering snowflake, and anything you wrote after this was meaningless.

 

[Catman51]

Trump isn't important to them.

The narrative is what's important.

If this were true, why is the entire committee only focused on Trump, to the exclusion of any dissenting comments?

 

[Nostra]

He “said”.

He says a lot. But not under oath.

You don’t have to be under oath to tell them you will testify, Troll.

What a moron.

 

[Coyote]

You don’t have to be under oath to tell them you will testify, Troll.

What a moron.

Didn’t say you did. Just pointing out he has always side stepped going under oath. No need to wet yourself, Trump is a habitual liar.

Lies.

He answered hundreds of written questions under oath for the Mueller debacle.

So let him testify only if the Clowns can censor him in real time.

Got it.

Absolutely.
