Makes you wonder if he was afraid the truth would sink him or afraid he couldn't tell the truth.

I have to agree that taking the 5th is smart for him.

I also have to say that DJT has a history of saying taking the 5th means your guilty (it doesn't) so he deserves to get raspberries about doing it.

Now the statement says he WILL take the 5th.  I wonder if his ego will allow him to keep that promise.
