when x is defined as True(L,x) then x is not a truth bearer.

Irrelvent.

If Truthbearer(L, p) is FALSE, and since p is just a NAME for the statement ~True(L, p), that means that True(L. p) is not a truth bearer and True has failed to be the required truth predicate.

That is the same thing as saying that
True(English, "this sentence is not true") is false
proves that True(L,x) is not a truthbearer.

Nope, why do you say that?

p is defined as ~True(L,p)
LP is defined as "this sentence is not true" in English.
Thus True(L,p) ≡ True(English,LP) and
Thus True(L,~p) ≡ True(English,~LP)

How does p defined as ~True(L, p) NOT generate the shown contradiction when you begin by saying True(L, p) must not be true (and thus false) because p has not chain to truthbears?

p is tossed out on its ass as a type mismatch error for every system
of bivalent logic before it gets any chance to be evaluated in any
other way.
Not ALLOWED. p is DEFINED to be something, so it is that/.

p defined as ~True(L, p) is rejected as a syntax error.
https://www.swi-prolog.org/pldoc/man?predicate=unify_with_occurs_check/2
or rejected as
   equal(X, X).
   ?- equal(foo(Y), Y). ...
   So Y ends up standing for some kind of infinite structure.
