Not exactly a surprise. They haven’t been offered a good enough deal to roll over. Yet.
But wait, as they say on TV, there’s more.
Isn’t it considered good journalistic practice to make the article longer than the headline? Love TPM, and tbh I’m refreshing the main page today like a rat hooked to a pleasure electrode, but I feel like I just got clickbaited.
That’s right - you’re not guilty! Just in case, you’d better start plea negotiations by laying out what you know they’ll get from you eventually. You know, so you can spend more time with your family.
Gallup:
President Approval / Disapproval: 33% / 62%
Yep, 33%. A new record low.
And that’s a beautiful death spiral…
Better than fluffing up an (important) three-sentence story with a bunch of content-free blather, IMHO. Omit needless words.
He’s about to go to Asia, face cameras, and make an even greater fool of himself. How low will his approval numbers go?
On the one hand, the average is the important number, not the noisy daily tracker… on the other hand, setting new records in said tracker is not a good place to be.
The real exciting numbers will be the immediate fallout of the indictments/confession. Should get fun!
See? NOT GUILTY! That means this was all a WITCH HUNT. I dreamt last night that Hillary stole a boy’s homework in fifth grade. Why isn’t Mueller investigating THAT! (REAL CRIME!!!)! DO SOMETHINGGGGGGGG!!!
They also screamed about Hillary Clinton’s e-mails.
Pleading not guilty?
He’d better launder a few million dollars more to pay his legal fees.
Be still my heart…
Russia inquiry charges: how close does this get to Trump?
As the news of the indictments rolled in, Trump tried to play down their significance – but the details revealed in the charge sheet are damning
"…Nevertheless, the odds on the special counsel’s investigation leading to Trump’s downfall just shortened again. People will talk. Matthew Miller, a former justice department spokesman, tweeted: “Mueller’s choreographed one-two punch today sends a signal to every Trump official: cooperate & get a good deal or resist & get hammered.”

Rule #1: Never trust a GOP Cocksucker. Those guys will roll faster than a piece of dough in a bakery.
Rule #2: See Rule #1
Well, we all know what he’ll be blathering about, and it ain’t going to be General Tso’s chicken.
Gates doesn’t yet have a personal attorney?! Hmmmm.
Then again, it’s Trump, so he might be blathering about General Tso’s chicken.
If he can fit it in among Clinton, her emails, and her collusion with the Russians.
Fox News is doing splendidly today.

Um, what?
Sounds like he’s being represented by the law firm Wearin, Awire and Skate!
They’re discussing if he can even find a lawyer who isn’t already involved. hahahaha
Considering he’s just exposed the Russians, he may want to call the esteemed firm of Ambul, Lance & Chaser.
(Or at least give his wife the number to keep in the safe deposit box)
