      He likely does it because he never thought about what his response should be when asked about his conviction and jail sentence.

      Rule 1 of running for office – be aware of and ready for the hard questions, 'cause they WILL be asked. If you don’t want to answer them = don’t run for PUBLIC office.

      I would have thought that would be self-explanatory but I guess it’s not.

        Except that didn’t happen at all. If you watch the video it was a stunt. The line of questioning had nothing to do with him.

        Here’s the question- was it a trial run for Trump in the debate with Biden? Let this guy do it, see how it plays with the MAGA types, then plan on Trump doing the same thing.

        I’m not trying to sound conspiratorial, this would be a pretty standard political move.
