What's that? Donald Trump is a notorious hypocrite?
Well, golly gee, you don't say.
I'm linking to the above for recent events, from the past week or two, but that's probably actually an evergreen link that will be timely from now on, or at least up until Trump, his lickspittles, and all of their lawyers (and their lawyers [and their lawyers]) have finally died of old age (or otherwise).
The video above, however, is from over four and a half years ago. And yet, it still demonstrates Trump's egregious hypocrisy just as well now as it did back then, back when he was still less than half a year into his *ugh*shiver* so-called "presidency," and his cronies were already starting to plead the 5th because of their criminal bullshit.
(I'm obviously not saying that it's never a good idea to plead the 5th or that doing so means you're clearly guilty or whatever. I'm just saying that Trump was loudly up in arms back in the day about Hillary's people pleading the 5th and how "horrible" that was, but when it comes to his own people, he was and is curiously silent on the matter. Go figure.)
