Conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi claimed he entered into a secret joint
defense agreement with Trump before he began speaking with special
counsel investigators this summer, right-wing news website The Daily
Caller reported.
…
Short description:
Corsi says nothing and gets convicted
trump then pardons him
Whereupon trump gets charged with obstruction of justice.

interesting.

I hope this is true about Corsi’s JDA with Trump. Manafort’s AND Corsi’s AND Trump’s lies all twisted together like a nest of vipers? I would love nothing more than to watch Mueller get these poisonous jackasses to bite each other.

We should not be too hasty on tying this to Trump. We will not impeach him unless he is seen sexually assaulting someone in the nude in the Capital Rotunda in front of at least ten thousand people.

So much to unpack in this article, starting with one pile of shit leaning on a podium provided by another pile of shit.

I wonder if Corpsi has ever heard the dictum that ā€œa verbal agreement isn’t worth the paper it’s written onā€.

ā€œwith the goal of the White House and me assisting one another in defending ourselvesā€

It isn’t the White House that needs defense, and it isn’t the White House attorney that’s providing it for you, you cretin! It’s Trump, and Jared, and Flynn, and Page, and Manafort, and god my fingers are getting tired. Probably easier to list the people who aren’t going to need defense.

ā€œAfter debating the pros and cons, we had decided that anytime we could get the attorney for the president of the United States to offer assistance to us, we needed to say to be thankful and accept,ā€

Once again, Senor, it ain’t the attorney for the president, it’s the attorney for Donald John Trump, and he’s gonna cut you so loose you’ll skyrocket past the Space Force training camp.

At what point do Trump’s personal lawyers say before a judge ā€œYour honor we tried, Oh we tried so many times to explain this to our client. Your Honor have you met our client.ā€

Well, when Corsi’s attorney gets investigated by his Disciplinary Committee for subordinating his client’s interest to that of a co-conspirator, not keeping a copy of the JDA, and exposing his client to violation of any cooperation agreement ultimately obtained, it will be very interesting.

ā€œThe mere existence of a Corsi JDA with Trumpā€¦ā€

Almost likeā€¦ā€˜collusion’?

So… ā€œWe decided not put it in writing, so it’d be secret!ā€ seems like a dumb thing to then write about in your book.

Consider these:

From John B. v. Goetz:

an oral joint defense agreement may be valid

and from US v. Gonzalez:

[a JDA may be created] by conduct as well as express agreement.

Actually, I would submit that it’s getting easier and easier.

"So, you remember that gangster movie, the one with Joe Pesci? Well, it’s like that. All these mob guys are being rolled up and are pleading out, but are all still sharing all the details of their deals with their mob boss. He knows what questions they’re being asked, what answers they’re giving, so he thinks he’s in the clear. Then, at the end, BOOM! turns out, that the Elliot Ness character was playing them all, all along. Remember the end of that Al Capone movie? The one with the James Bond guy, and Kevin Costner? Yeah, it’s all just like that, with Trump as Al Capone - guy’s gonna die in prison…"

I timed myself - I can read the above in about 20 seconds…

Could this be some sort of…wait for it… collusion?

I worry that Paul Walter Hauser may be too concerned with the narrowing effect on his career when the time comes, as it must, that the re-creator of Shawn Eckhardt is approached to portray Corsi in the HBO mini-series, Dirty Trumpsters: How the MAGA Mob Misdefiled America.

Samuel Goldwyn said, ā€œA verbal agreement is worth the paper it is written on.ā€

Ah man!! Now the agreement is no longer a secret!!

Trump wrote those answers himself. It was extremely routine. Very extremely simple and easy for him to write them, which he did without any help. His lawyers didn’t do anything. Only Trump wrote them.

Maybe I’m going out on a limb here, but perhaps it was a colossal self-own for Trump to masturbate in public about how easy Mueller’s take-home test was.

Almost a big a self-own as it was for a sloppy, crude, and transparent wanna-be mafia don to run for POTUS.
