Trump invoked his Fifth Amendment rights in his long-awaited deposition with the New York attorney general's office

Donald Trump invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self incrimination during his deposition.

After arriving for his deposition, Trump lambasted James as a failed politician and accused her of being involved in a political fishing expedition against his family.

He asked why he was taking the Fifth Amendment. I have an answer to that question. When your family, your company, and all the people in your circle have become targets of a witch hunt supported by lawyers, prosecutors, and the Fake News Media, you have no choice.

The FBI's raid of my home, Mar-a-Lago, just two days prior to this deposition, wiped out any uncertainty that I might have had. The current administration and many prosecutors in this country have lost all moral and ethical bounds of decency.

I declined to answer the questions under the rights and privileges afforded to every citizen because of the advice of my counsel.

During the months-long legal fight, the Trump family tried to get a New York court to throw out subpoenas for James' testimony.

The Trump Organization is the subject of a lengthy investigation by the AG.

Trump was seen arriving at James' office Wednesday morning after his two oldest children were deposed.

Trump has used his constitutional rights against self-incriminating before. He pleaded the 5th in response to questions about his extramarital affairs during his divorce proceedings.

During the 2016 election, Trump suggested that Clinton's staff had something to hide when they invoked their Fifth Amendment rights during the congressional investigation into her use of a private email server.

He said at a campaign rally that the mob took the Fifth. Why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?
