It didn't take long for the former president to withdraw his lawyer's promise.
It's been just a few days since Donald Trump's lawyer Alina Habba proclaimed he was not afraid and that's why he would testify on Monday.
"He still wants to take the stand, even though my advice is, at this point, you should never take the stand with a gag order," Habba said outside the courthouse on Thursday. "But he's so firmly against what is happening in this court and so firmly for the old America that we know, not this America, that he will take the stand on Monday. He will open himself up to whatever they want because he's not afraid. People who are afraid cower. President Trump does not cower."

But by Sunday afternoon, that's exactly what Trump confessed he would do.
Taking to his social media in an all-caps rant, Trump said that the expert witness that they had through the final parts of last week will continue early into the week, finishing up on Tuesday.
"I have already testified," Trump explained, "and I have nothing more to say..."
Indeed, while Trump was under oath, he confessed that all financial statements were approved by him before being used or sent to anyone.
