Discussion: Papadopoulos Marvels Over Whirlwind Year, Wife Hints He May Leave Plea Deal

I don’t know what “decisions” he actually has at this point. Seems to me he violated his plea agreement and faces potentially significant jail time, which is up to the judge. The Special counsel has made it clear he was very uncooperative and cost them an opportunity to interview a person of interest (Mifsud) effectively. I think Papadopoulos is in big trouble here unless he gets a Pardon.

I don’t think ‘she’ understands that when he pled guilty, he PLED GUILTY.

Can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube (and believe me I have tried to do that myself).

He not only pled guilty to lying, the evidence seemed pretty much incontrovertible. I don’t think he will try to pull out of the deal; the argument will be over whether he breached the plea agreement and is therefore open to be charged with additional crimes, or whether he cooperated fully. I suspect he is being pressured by Trumpsters to say that Mueller’s team wanted him to lie (not just to sing but to compose, as Judge Ellis put it), which will then give Trump an excuse to pardon him before he serves any time. Decisions. . .

Wife Hints He May Leave Plea Deal

I’m not so sure…seems to me that the only reason to consider this would be if he has been offered a pardon or if he is being threatened. With his signed statement and original guilty plea, I can’t see how he thinks he would win a trial. There has to be more there, which would undoubtedly fit the definition of ‘obstruction of justice’.

yep…I think he has been promised one, hence…“decisions”

Or the heady fumes emanating from that Russian/Italian honeypot who enticed him into her deadly comb. He’s in a sticky situation no?

Is Simona’s and George’s a real marriage or a spy marriage?

George may turn out to be as dumb and foolish as Don,Jr. And that is saying something. If he leaves the "deal’, he is likely to spend more time in the slammer than he is likely to spend if he does not.

What he’s getting may well be neither legal nor advice. More like an offer he can’t refuse.

I didn’t know ‘papadopoulos’ was Greek for ‘dumber than a sack of hammers.’

That bimba should be frog marched. The feminine term would be more appropriate as she is female, although I remain doubtful she’s really una bimba italiana.

A big like for my favorite Viewmaster 3D story. It ended with my single favorite Viewmaster scene:

Viewmaster, heh. Once your kids finally start to believe your story about dial phones, you describe Viewmaster and they stop believing anything you ever you tell them about your childhood.

If Trump is aware that a pardon means that Papadopoulos won’t be able to plead the 5th when Mueller questions him again about the Russian connection- then ‘Papa’ is going to be spending a very looooong time in prison.

[Given the quality of his legal team, I don’t know if we can assume Trump knows any of this]

How can he leave the deal when he never lived up to its terms in the first place?

None of that precludes her from being a bimbo. Or bimba.

What is he out of his mind? He’s a young guy with a beautiful and seemingly supportive wife. Keep the deal. Go to jail for a few months. Spend the time working on a book. And voila. Whole new start. Don’t be an idiot and risk double digit years in prison.
