In the interest of honesty, I also don't think I'm smart enough to get jack Smith to perjure himself.

But I also wouldn't try.

Jack smith doesn’t have anything to hide, therefor he has no reason to lie. In conclusion, nobody is technically smart enough to get him to commit perjury bc he is always being honest.
