This Nunberg guy has a lot to say about the various characters in the Trump orbit. Why doesn't he go and sing to the special prosecutor instead of doing on tv? Not that I'm complaining, this is entertaining as hell.

I thought Carter Page was bad but this guy takes the cake for king dumbass.

Anyway this stuff is barely credible. You can hear him in the video hedging really hard and it's obviously just his opinion based on the same information we know. Actually the biggest thing that made me lol was when he said the FBI was very professional which "really impressed him". Being impressed by the professionalism of people and then complimenting them on it when it's expected is so... amateurish.
He's right though.

Trump kept things secret for no reason. Carter Page was just some dumbnut on a list brought over from the Carson campaign because Trump didn't have a foreign policy board.
It seems like all Trump has done is protect his ego and thus digging himself into an impossible position but there was never any real collusion between Trump and the Russians.

For starters, the Russians never went in business with Trump. They're the only ones who didn't let him build a shitty golden tower on their soil despite his endless lobbying to get it.  :doge

Define "never went into business?" Because I would call millions to billions in loans, free funding for your pageants, and decades of washing dirty Russian money through your real estate ventures something akin to a business relationship, wouldn't you?

To be fair to Nunberg, I do think it's a bit crazy for Mueller to expect him to work 80 hours by Friday to get all his email records in order. Who does Mueller think he is, Tyler Malka?

I am as serious as I can possibly be when I say it is a failure of our institutions that someone can be put in charge of a department and not know its primary function until they're on the job. That's a national disgrace you expect from shanty shack dictatorships.

I mean that's common for a lot of positions. 1988 was the last time Germany had someone who headed the Ministry of Defense with any kind of meaningful military experience. And it shows  :doge

These positions alway go to some cronies to thank them for their loyalty.

He could just hand-over his e-mail password.

I suspect he's hiding something in those e-mails that does not have anything to with Russia necessarily but with some other shady hustles he, Stone and Bannon were involved in.

I've watched 5 minutes of this (drunken?) guy stammer through one of these interviews and I think that is clearly the case.

I love Roger Stone, he's a father to me, this is so unfair to Roger Stone, I will not cooperate, we did nothing wrong, Roger did nothing wrong.

I mean it's been obvious for over a year now that Roger Stone was in contact with Wikileaks about the release of the Podesta emails. The fucker bat-signaled that shit out on Twitter a week or so before it happened.

I think one of my favorite moments was in his stream of consciousness where he was lashing out at Trump and Corey for firing him on charged up pretenses using a bunch of racist Facebook posts as the cover and his excuse was simply "you think Trump's voters were really going to care about racially insensitive facebook posts?  Get out of here with that."


It was nice moment of subtle honesty.

There was also "I came up with the wall, I came up with the Muslim ban, I came up with everything to attack Jeb Bush."

Taking credit for ideas probably rustles Trump more than being honest about it being a Muslim ban.
