50 years of failed eco predictions

An affidavit is already a testimony made under oath.

NO IT ISN'T!


It is already a deposition. They are from actual witnesses.

NO IT ISN'T!

Depositions don't feature anonymous sources...a deposition would be calling the witnesses the affiants mention in their affidavits to testify to what the attorney put in the affidavit.

You understand that the affidavits are not witness testimony, right? They are a lawyer's sworn statement that someone told them something.

A deposition would force the affiant (Let's use Powell as the affiant since Powell filed more affidavits than any other attorney) to testify under oath during the deposition that someone told them this, and then the opposing attorney or judge would ask the affiant who the source is for this claim...that's the part where Trump's people come up short because they know any of these "witnesses" that they identified in their affidavits won't be able to keep their stories straight.
 
The affidavits were made by witnesses, not lawyers.

NO THEY WEREN'T!

The affidavits are made by the attorneys and in the affidavit, it is the attorney who makes the claim that an anonymous source told them they witnessed something.

You don't know what you're talking about.
 
Inversion fallacy.

But you don't.

You first said they were a deposition (they aren't), then you said they were "a form of a deposition" (still not correct).

Affidavits have very little legal standing, particularly when the source described within it is anonymous, as is the case for almost every single affidavit Trump's people filed.
 
An affidavit IS a deposition.

NO IT ISN'T.


It requires no hearing. It requires no judge.

Right, which is why they have very little legal standing and why they are almost never used in actual court cases.

The affidavits you're talking about are submitted and signed by the attorneys, and they represent rumors that the attorneys heard from their witnesses...who they keep anonymous in the affidavit for no real purpose or reason.
 
The disaster of the Treaty of Versailles, for one.

Nope, that had nothing to do with it.


Over speculation for another.

Whose fault is that? Conservatism's. That's part of the laissez-faire economic philosophy you still have today...like you learned nothing from what happened before.


The Federal Reserve for another.

Right, the Fed employing laissez-faire economic policy and non-intervention throughout the 1920's.


This caused the initial downturn.

It wasn't a downturn, it was a complete collapse of the stock market and the reason was because of Republicans.


After that, FDR made the Great Depression Great. It lasted until after WW2. It took that long to recover after FDR's influence was removed.

LMAO.


Personal computer prices have been dropping over the years. Denial of history.

No, they really haven't.

And it's not computer prices, it's component prices.

You tried to pass off a component as a computer.

Sloppy work.

An affidavit is not an anonymous source. They are witnesses. They are depositions. Nothing to do with Powell.

Affidavits are sworn testimony. They have a lot of legal standing. They are not anonymous.

An affidavit IS a deposition. They have legal standing. They are not written by attorneys. They are written by witnesses.
