I think Nunberg wants to be arrested.

[boston bean]

He is basically begging for it.

He may have been threatened by Stone.

Nothing else makes sense.

[chuckstevens]

1. I think you may be right!

[duforsure]

2. He's telling the world Stone is more involved

And guilty of things. Pretty obvious, and stupid.

[HipChick]

9. Exactly..

[cilla4progress]

3. This makes sense

No one in their right mind announces publicly that they intend to flout the American legal system. "Come and get me, Bobby!"

Or the Russians, possibly? "They made me do it, Comrade!"?

Fed prison is his safe space?

[boston bean]

4. Yep. That is what I am thinking.

He is safer in a tv studio too.

[Gabi Hayes]

10. My first thought was the Russians, but he is SO completely screwed if hes lying wrt to Stones

Wiki/Ruskie connection

Is he really that stupid?

Looks like a key to this who,e web could be the Manafort/Stone link, as they were partners for a long time, encompassing dirty dealings almost beyond comprehension

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

5. Roger stone is like a father to me

Sounded like the drunk you meet at a bar who soon tells you he loves you.

[boston bean]

7. Telling the boss you are still kissing his ring to buy time.

All the while praying the feds come and get you beforre the goons put a bullet in your brain.

[uponit7771]

6. +1, that too !!! There's no need for a PR stunt regarding this. They're talking about that now

... on MSNBC that Stone is his hommie so it might be a ploy to get it out that he's taking a small fall for Stone to give up the real goods later.

[democrank]

8. I think he' s protecting Roger Stone

and may not fully realize how serious his predicament is. Seems like he thinks he's too small a fish to get caught up in Mueller's net, but he's exactly the kind Mueller would be willing to squeeze to get someone else. Nunberg better start getting his communications together or prepare himself for some time behind bars.

[duforsure]

11. Could this be to force

Mueller's hand , and put him jail, only to have trump pardon him out? Then all of them follow the same pattern. All designed to slow down the process?

[boston bean]

13. Nah. He bad mouthed Trump.

[cheyanne]

15. Yes, Nunberg is nothing, but the sacraficial lamb. Once he is in jail, he'll be pardoned..

Nunberg is nothing, but a lot of somebodies have their lives riding on hiding the truth. Trump has to stop the rest of the list from testifying. Nunberg is creating the persona of nice guy caught up in a sloppy overbroad investigation. He is even a hero for not testifying because Stone is like family. The plan is that by pardoning such a heroic nobody, there will be no public outcry.

[C_U_L8R]

12. PR stunt x 100,000,000,000

He ain't fooling anybody.

[nadine_mn]

14. I just said this to my husband - he might feel safer in jail

It seems to me like he is being pressured by someone (accused of leaking, snitching, cooperating - whatever) and he is making a huge public display of defiance of "hey look at me!! Look at how much I am NOT cooperating!! See I am gonna tear up this subpoena!! I laugh at your attempts to jail me"

I think he would feel safer in jail - he is terrified of something

[RandomAccess]

16. I think he's high as a kite

I wasn't so sure until I read just now he's been on a LOT of shows today.

And then there's this too:

Sam Nunberg on @jaketapper is 50% Roger Stone & 50% Trump's speed doctor but as a man who knows I can tell he's running low on go go juice. Slurring in 3,2,1...

17. Just laughing at our judicial system

Russia's work? Well see on Friday

[TomSlick]

18. Stay calm.

Nunberg is just a brave drunk. He will be hung-over tomorrow and less brave.

[boston bean]

19. Hey Slick, did I sound un-calm to you??

[TomSlick]

20. Not so much, no.

I was just saying I didn't buy Nunberg's bluster.

No offense intended.

[boston bean]

21. Well you know what they say. One sure way to make

someone less calm is to tell them to stay calm or to calm down.
