“Michael Cohen, the former personal attorney for Donald Trump, gives advice to the former president’s co-defendants in the sweeping Georgia case accusing Trump and others of attempting to overturn the 2020 election.”

From CNN

I guess it’s easy to say from the outside, especially if you are not a lawyer (like myself) that of course Donald Trump’s co-defendants should cooperate with the Feds and the Fulton County prosecutors, because DJT is the top dog, top target, the guy that the Fulton County and DOJ wants the most. But, I think you could see why an insider in Trump World might say:

“Why should I cooperate? I did nothing wrong. The laws don’t apply to me like they do to Joe and Jane Average. Besides, our cult leader will get reelected and will pardon me. All I have to do is to try to delay my trial and convictions as long as possible and wait to January, 2025.”

Plus, they still believe that might be able to get their case into the Federal court and get it thrown out there and get just one MAGA person on their jury and get their case thrown out that way.

But returning to Planet Earth: (if only for a moment) Trump’s co-defendants right now are in a burning house, with just one way out. Sure, they could light another cigarette, perhaps throw some more oil on the fire and try to drag out their cases, for reasons I already laid out. But on Planet Earth, when there’s only one escape from a burning house, without getting burned yourself, intelligent, sane, and sober, people find that one door or window that they can get through and escape the burning house.

That one door or window for the Trump co-defendants, is cooperating with Fulton County and DOJ and telling them exactly what they did and everything they know about what other people did during this 2021 coup attempt, including the former President Donald J. Trump.
