I’m guessing the larger negotiation behind the scenes is whether the Deep State will be allowed to declare it a draw, go back to status quo ante, no further charges against Trump and his team and no Deep State criminals charged with crimes for illegally surveilling the Trump campaign and trying to frame Trump and his team for criminal conspiracy with the Russian government in the biggest political scandal in US history.
Because if we had a real Attorney General who had the backbone and integrity to actually investigate this situation, and started turning over rocks to see exactly who was directing the Maltese Professor Joseph Mifsud to bait Papadapoulos with info, and who exactly drafted the smears against Trump and his team and fed them to Christopher Steele, then it just might be that the trail leads back to Team Hillary, Team Obama, and British intelligence.
Hopefully Trump doesn’t take the deal and pursues these criminals to the end of the earth. But that would require an Attorney General who is willing to fight for truth and justice.
Very compelling theory.
