I guess the distinction between tfg and the tfg organization matters, but either way it's bad for the creep.

I can’t help but suspect he’s betting on his boss getting back into the Oval Office and wiping it all away with a pardon.

Cooperation would mean he spills the beans but so much better to have him on the witness stand saying, "yes, we did that." I'm happy about this outcome.

So I guess he ended up agreeing to testify in the upcoming trial against the Trump organization after all!

The sentence length is contingent on his cooperative testimony. Don't cooperate; no deal.

It's amazing all these people around Donald Trump have had to serve time for doing the things Donald Trump ask them to do.

And yet they can't seem to figure out how to put handcuffs on Donald Trump

Give me the damn handcuffs I'll do ited

Weisselberg has children that can be leverages as a threat by the Don.

I mean as all these investigations twist themselves in knots trying to gather evidence of a crime by the Slobfather, a very easy case to prove just sits there. What are his defenses, Cohen forced him to payoff Stormy or Cohen is a tainted witness? I just don’t understand why that case just sits there. Does the Statue of Limitations prevent prosecution? That case has it all, politics, sex, and payoffs and they have the documents and the witnesses.
