Shock We can start whole new threads for less than $26,000,000.

This one only cost 23p I found down the back of the sofa:

Former Trump aide Sam Nunberg on CNN now: "Trump very well may have done something with the Russians."

If there's something actually in those Nunberg emails, he practically painted a treasure map. "Hey, Mueller, definitely DON'T ask about THOSE emails. The ones between BANNON and STONE. Nothing THERE, obviously. Just MOVE ON."

'[R]eality malfunction' is a brilliant term. Smile

I don't know much about the man but Mr Wittes rates this NYT piece.

! Tapper: Do you think Donald Trump knew nothing about that [Trump Tower] meeting?
Nunberg: "No. You know he knew about it. He was talking about it a week before...I don't know why he went around trying to hide it."

Nunberg: "Yes I believe Carter Page was colluding with the Russians."

Sorry. That should be Macdougal with only one 'l'. (I know now. Smile)

When you see the sheer number of people involved in this, you have to wonder how Mr M's team keep their heads straight. (They must fairly buzz overnight.) Do you think he has a board in his office?

Not happy with and rather rude about SHS.

PerkingFaintly · 05/03/2018 23:19

From that Washington Post article about Nunberg today:

www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/politics/former-trump-aide-sam-nunberg-called-before-grand-jury-says-he-will-refuse-to-go/2018/03/05/24c8b86a-20a9-11e8-badd-7c9f29a55815_story.html
This is not the first time Nunberg’s credibility has been questioned. Nunberg admitted in Politico last November that he made up a story about then-New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie fetching McDonald’s food for Trump to embarrass Christie — a claim that went viral after it was reported by The New Yorker.

... and McDougal.

TheClaws · 05/03/2018 23:53

Sam Nunberg has really thrown all his cards out and is seeing where they land. Is this a different, opposite type kind of reaction than that of Hope Hicks, who has said little and shrouded herself away from the spotlight? Nunberg’s is controversial, everywhere, and greasy.

Sam Nunberg to MSNBC: "Trump is the most disloyal person you're ever gonna meet."

Have to admit I'm laughing like a drain at the Twitter commentary on Nunberg.

What's up with Nunberg? "I'm not gonna give you my emails but I WILL go on TV and make some vague and not so vague statements implicating the people who sent me the emails in various levels of wrong-doing". Confused

AcrossthePond55 · 06/03/2018 00:23

Not that I mind that he's saying that shit, it's just that I can't figure out why he's doing it. I guess I'll put it down to what Forrest Gump's mama says "Stupid is as stupid does".
