Mueller over all- becasue there are so many w Stone? Wouldn’t that even it out if there were so few to some of the people?

Also says he doesn’t want to incriminate Stone for lying. Keeps saying he’s not going to help them but he will laugh and make a bigger spectacle if they arrest him? Huh?

..he'll spill the fijoles on his best pal stone or trump. But wait a minute, given the dramatics... this may have been all for an audience of one-trumpf. Hear me out, if trumpf sees that numberg is proving his fidelity, showing the world " I'm willing to throw myself into the lion's den for you." That would please Trumpf and he will reward lowly peasant heftely...promises to pardon him, pay his legal fees, get him a nice job wth Kremlin SO either way he's off the hook... cleaver, very cleaver.

Of course, this all pure conjecture, on my part, however there are many possibly reasons that trumpf 's ilk will soon be attempting wiggle out of traps set by Mueller...one being they know that he's guilty and those around him are guilty of slew of crimes.

It's been a very entertaining day...can't wait for the rest of dominos to fall. Damn and it's only Monday!

It's actually really good strategy - they have calmed him down and had him walk back some of his initial craziness

It is interesting to watch good interviewing (and possible mental health intervention) for once
