Nunberg Says He Enjoyed Defiance But Will Comply With Mueller

Says president ‘never did anything illegal’ around him

Plans to testify on Friday, hand over subpoenaed emails


Longtime Donald Trump associate Sam Nunberg said he loved the attention he received from a round of media interviews this week defying special counsel Robert Mueller but now plans to comply with the prosecutor’s subpoena as quickly as possible.

Nunberg also sought to clarify his on-air speculation during the interviews of possible misconduct by Trump during the campaign.

The president “never did anything illegal or wrong around me,” Nunberg told Bloomberg News in an interview Wednesday. He added that based on questions prosecutors put to him, "It’s my impression that they may have something on him. But perhaps they don’t."

Nunberg said he plans to testify before a grand jury on Friday as scheduled and will hand over “as quickly as possible” email communications with the president and nine other Trump associates that Mueller demanded. He said compiling the emails turned out to be easier than he thought.

unimpeachable testimony when called upon to do so? And was this the point of his media blitz?
And does “Bashful Bob” Mueller have all the evidence he needs on this idiot, without relying on what the idiot says or doesn’t say?

I’ll go with the latter, and I’ve had my bellyful of Nunberg and Page...bring on some G. Nader pls, and I can never get enough delicious tidbits about MANAFORT, eh??

... subpoena a witness to testify before the GJ unless they have a pretty good idea of what that witness can be forced to say. Meuller likely already has the emails and other evidence. He may let Sam lie, then shove the evidence up his ass in front of the GJ.
