Donald Trump has testified in court as a football owner, casino builder and airline buyer. He bragged in a deposition that he saved "millions of lives" by deterring nuclear war as president. Another time, he fretted about the dangers of flung fruit.
Trump has testified in court in at least eight trials since 1986, according to an Associated Press review of court records and news coverage. He also has been questioned under oath in more than a dozen depositions and regulatory hearings. Testifying in the USFL's antitrust lawsuit against the NFL in 1986, Trump denounced allegations that he had spied on NFL officials at one of his hotels, calling the claim "such a false interpretation it's disgusting."
Trump was briefly called to the witness stand in the New York case last month to explain comments outside of court that the judge said violated a limited gag order. Trump won that one and another lawsuit in 2005, where he testified that a construction company had "fleeced" him by overcharging him by $1.5 million for work at a golf course in New York's Westchester County.
