Shortly after the terrorist attacks in Paris in 2015, a football match was cancelled here in Germany because of a terror warning. There was a press conference with our Federal Minister of the Interior at the time, Thomas de Maizière. When asked for more information, he did not want to reveal that there was another warning for a train station. So he thought the best thing he could say to dodge the question was:

"Parts of the answer might unsettle the population."

Calmed everyone down immediately.

Well I just came here from a thread where Googles economist accidentally revealed how much Google pays Apple (to be their default search engine in safari) while trying to dodge questions. That’s got to make the list.

I've been watching and listening to a lot of responses from Israeli officials lately about the deaths of Palestinians. So...

Recently re-watched the Prince Andrew BBC interview, and it is just wall-to-wall question dodging:

Why are you so interested, what are you up to? ANSWER US!

"It depends on what the definition of 'it' is."

I know an affair is a weird thing to bring a president down for (seriously America?), but the above quote (which is the first thing that shows up on Google autosearch when you type "it depends on") is trying hard. As someone who has dodged her share of questions before, Bill Clinton might as well have chewed it over with Twix.

Mike Lindell's deposition testimony was made public a month or two ago, and it is hilarious and sad.

Maybe not so much question dodging as it was just dodging the issue that was being raised (his preparedness for the presidency). He basically said this statement two times in a row and the 2nd time it had nothing to do with what was just said:

“Let’s dispel with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he’s doing. He is trying to change this country. He wants America to become more like the rest of the world.” (Sen. Marco Rubio in 2016)

Say someone was accused of doing something, but there was no proof, even though they knew they did the thing except for the judge, and everyone knows they did the thing, just keep your lips sealed during all questions and claim the 5th.
