Conservative lawyer George Conway does not typically mince words when it comes to how he feels about Donald Trump.
During a Wednesday interview with MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace — speaking directly in the camera to the former president — Conway predicted that the MAGA hopeful will not testify in his ongoing New York hush money trial because he's a terrified "wuss."
"If I were his lawyer," the legal analyst told Wallace, "in a million years, I would never tell him to testify. I would tell him not to testify. And it reminds me of that passage towards the end of one of [veteran Washington Post journalist] Bob Woodward's books on the [Trump] administration, where Woodward quotes John Dowd — Trump's original personal lawyer — as saying, 'The reason why he couldn't testify is because he's an effing liar.' You can't let him testify. He would be torn to shreds in about three minutes."

Conway continued, "But that said — he never listens to his laywers. If he doesn't testify, it's not going to be because he all of a sudden decided to follow legal advice. He's causing his lawyers to do stupid things in court, like the cross-examination of Stormy, and the miscues the other day with the cross-examination with Michael Cohen. He doesn't listen to his lawyers."
"If he doesn't testify, it's because he's scared."
Speaking into the camera, the conservative lawyer said, "Donald, you are scared. You like to go out and stand out there in the hallway and say all because nobody gets to ask you questions. And if they ask questions, you walk away."
"You, Donald — and I hope you're listening to me — you are a wuss. You are scared of actually doing what Stormy Daniels had to do. and what Michael Cohen had to do and what every other person who is called -- you know, you can't call these people liars, Donald, unless you go on the stand and tell your truth. Let's hear it. Are you afraid, Donald? I think you are."
