President Trump offered a surprising response on Monday to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) suggestion that he testify before the House committees probing impeachment — he’ll consider it.
In a tweet thread Monday morning, Trump insulted Pelosi and CBS’ “Face the Nation” — calling the Sunday show “DEFACE THE NATION” — before suggesting he might be open to providing written testimony to congressional investigators.
“I like the idea and will, in order to get Congress focused again, strongly consider it!” he tweeted
….that I testify about the phony Impeachment Witch Hunt. She also said I could do it in writing. Even though I did nothing wrong, and don’t like giving credibility to this No Due Process Hoax, I like the idea & will, in order to get Congress focused again, strongly consider it!

Sure he will. I am sure they’re 'looking at this very, very closely," and it will happen sometime in the next ‘two weeks.’
Several lawyers will shut this down pronto.
Translation: I am willing to commit perjury in writing, but my lawyers will not let me do it.
I wonder if a self-impeachment document needs to be notarized?
Big consideration, performed extremely strongly (and very large). Believe me!
