Judge orders Trump sit for 7-hour deposition in early January
Our Esteemed President: Judge orders Trump sit for 7-hour deposition in early January(CNN)
Before President-elect Donald Trump heads to the White House on January 20, he will find himself back in the witness chair for questioning in his ongoing contractual dispute with celebrity chef, Jose Andres.
DC Superior Court Judge Jennifer A. Di Toro ruled Wednesday that Trump must sit for a deposition in New York City the first week of January, and it may last up to seven hours.
Trump sued Andres for breach of contract after Andres backed out of a plan for a restaurant in Trump's new luxury hotel in Washington. Andres claimed he canceled plans for the project after Trump made disparaging remarks about Mexicans during the presidential campaign.
Trump's attorneys previously agreed to his deposition in New York City, but sought to limit the length and scope of questioning, arguing in court filings that "Mr. Trump is not just any apex deponent; he is the President-elect ... It is not an overstatement that he is extremely busy handling matters of very significant public importance."

What "matters of significant public importance"? His tweets? All the security briefings he is part of?
​Would be very cool if someone could secretly video the deposition. I 'd love to see him squirm.
