I wasn't paying attention and selected "Trump supporter - YES testify". Should have been "anti-Trump - YES testify". I can see that it didn't skew the pole in the least. What does that tell you?

At any rate, you bet I want him to testify! That'll be an hour or two of prime entertainment. Invite some friends over, have a BBQ, a few beers and it's a fine evening of television. Wouldn't miss it!

I was joking (at Pedros expense). I should have used an emoji. LOL

Doh! I hit Trump supporter that wants him to testify when it should be anti Trump supporter wanting him to testify. Note to self, never reply to a poll while hung over with little sleep.


Yes I want him to testify. I also want some pop corn and a few friends over for a good laugh. The liar and chief testifying under oath? Sure, why not?

I would like him to testify before the investigation is complete so we can compare what he has to say with the facts.
Indeed he did offer. Of course, he would like under oath with no second thoughts. He's only been deposed like 100 times.

Trump does.

Trump would probably do it just because he knows it would get good ratings!

As of this writing, 10.52% of Trump supporters say testify under oath.
21.05% say don't

Of non Trump supporters 63.15% say testify and 5.26% say don't

That means 1/3 of Trump supporters want to hear what he will say under oath, while 2/3 don't.

If you are a Trump supporter why wouldn't you want to hear what he has to say under oath? (Forget using national security because everyone knows they will watch him like a hawk.)

Non supporters overwhelmingly want to hear what he has to say when it's criminal to lie. Why not you?

I say yes. If nothing else, it will help put the whole controversy to rest. Or he'll lie and we can impeach him for lying under oath.

I see no downside either way.
