GET ME REWRITE: As usual, Donald Trump was absolutely full of hot air when he said he would 'absolutely' testify at New York criminal trial

From the BBC, a report that neglects to reference his April hot-air  boast.
Though Mr Trump decided not to testify, he talked at length to the press waiting outside the courtroom. 
"I think a great case was put on. There is no crime," Mr Trump said just before the afternoon session.
It is not unusual for criminal defendants to choose not to take the stand, legal experts say. 
Testifying under oath would have opened Mr Trump up to aggressive questioning from prosecutors, as well as other elements of his background including unfavourable verdicts in his recent civil trials. 

 
There's also this metaphor.


Sue Thompson's "Paper Tiger" debuted at #78 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week ending January 2, 1965.  It spent 10 weeks on the chart, peaking at #23.
