He's been giving interviews all day, and is currently still going on

Either he is having some kind of manic episode, is trying to wink signals to team Trump, or is in a sneaky-good attempt to get his lawyer to kill himself.

My initial thought was that he's somehow involved, thinks he's screwed and is already looking for a pardon. Why wouldn't you cooperate with that level of law enforcement?

But who knows? It's just all around nuts.

I didn't see all of the interviews, but from what I have seen, Sam Nunberg was not quite all there. I think he is feeling a tremendous amount of pressure and was acting erratically. Erin Burnett said she smelled alcohol on his breath.

That does not mean that everything he was saying is not true. Sometimes you're more candid after a few drinks. But what he said today may not be what he is prepared to say under oath. I think we ought to wait a few days to digest this information, especially after Nunberg sobers up and talks with his lawyer.

But Trump cannot look at what Nunberg says and all of the subpoenas that Mueller is giving out and think this is all going away soon. Remember when his lawyers were telling him this would wrapped up by the end of 2017?

To hear him tell it, he thinks it was all a grand bit of theater...

because its an op-ed, and people are tired of hair-fires that have no evidence... your post should ask why nobody cares that Obama misused FISA court to spy on a candidate, or that a major party rigged a primary, or that Sanders' campaign was being boosted by Russians, or why so many people can't seem to grasp the reality that Hillary Clinton lost the election on her own merits......
