Serious question:
To state that you will defend someone in court would indicate that either the individual making the statement would act as the defense attorney, or provide the means for defense, would it not?

He is a great sarcastic man. He said in an interview he would run Republican because their voters are dumb and believes anything.
I don't think he was being sarcastic.

Thank God I will vote for him

Either way, telling everyone he never said it now isn't going to work. Again caught lying. Clear as day and on video.

Seriously? I'm not a lawyer. If I told someone before a provoked fight "Hey man, I'll defend you in court," it means "I'll testify for you that this was provoked incident and give my testimony that you're not the aggressor here." It's a grown up version of "I got your back in this fight, yo."

So he's said both "I'll defend you in court" at one point and "I promise to pay the legal fees" at an earlier point.

But will those who support him give a damn???
I got nothing, man. Though I still maintain "I'll defend you in court" is neither a direct nor indirect offer to cover legal fees.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said he is "going to take a look at" paying the legal fees of an apparent supporter who allegedly punched a protester at one of Trump's rallies last week.
During a Sunday interview on "Meet The Press," the real-estate mogul criticized the protester, who was allegedly hit as he was being escorted out of Trump's Wednesday rally in North Carolina.
"I do want to see what that young man was doing, because he was very taunting," Trump said of the protester. "He was very loud, very disruptive."
"I want to see the full tape. I don't condone violence. I'm going to look at," he added.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said he is "going to take a look at" paying the legal fees of an apparent supporter who allegedly punched a protester at one of Trump's rallies last week.
Note: going to 'take a look into paying legal fees does not equal 'paying legal fees'.
