Guys - we are almost at the end!! The defense rested today after 2 witnesses testified on behalf of Donald Trump - and neither of them were named Donald Trump. I know, we are all completely and utterly shocked that the most honest man in the world, Donald Trump, who said for weeks on end that he was GAGGED and would absolutely, totally, 100% testifywussed out at the last minute, like the utterly shameless coward that he is.
