      Ladies and gentlemen, let me just say, this courtroom, tremendous courtroom, it’s really fantastic, okay? Nobody’s ever seen a courtroom like this before, believe me. And I must say, I’ve been to a lot of courtrooms, folks. Many courtrooms, lots of them.

      Now, I know what you’re all thinking: “Why is the greatest businessman in the world standing in front of you today?” Well, let me tell you, it’s all a big misunderstanding. Huge, tremendous misunderstanding. They say I’m being accused of being too charismatic, too charming, and too good-looking. Can you believe that? It’s a real witch hunt, folks. Sad!
