    1 hour of testimony in a simple divorce proceeding for a blue-collar worker is the result of dozens or hundreds of hours of working with the attorney on documentation and preparation. I imagine it would be an order of magnitude more work if it’s the POTUS suing for defamation. It also feeds into the “both sides” narrative to see Biden sitting in a courtroom, same as Trump. It doesn’t matter that Biden’s not the defendant, and it doesn’t matter that it’s a civil matter instead of a criminal one because the footage of Biden in a courtroom is more than enough to sell that story to the sycophants.

      In a divorce case you need testimony to understand what the other spouse did.

      In a slander case what evidence does Biden need to testify about?

      All the evidence is a matter of public record.
