1. Not after what he said about Trump.

Trump doesn't like people who talk trash about him, and Nunberg did exactly that.

3. Nunberg is a nobody. Trump would have no reason to pardon him.

Trump fired him twice, and Nunberg sued Trump for $10 million. Trump won't waste bad pardon publicity on that dingbat.

Frivolous lawsuits offend him? Have I been having a bad dream all these months?

In fact, I'm getting the impression that Nunberg wants to kneecap Trump in some way.

Nunberg was considered source of leak to media about Lewandowski/Hicks affair. (Nunberg has been talking about the affair repeatedly today)

Trump and Nunberg reached some sort of settlement

4. This is a set up: Nunberg's job is to stand up to Mueller and show how bad the subpoenas are.

Nunberg is defying Mueller and daring him to jail him for contempt of court. Once Nunberg is in contempt of court and about to go to jail, Trump will pardon him, signaling to others that they too can defy the court and not testify.

Nunberg may or maynot hate TRump, Nunberg is also shielding Stone, too , by not testifying.
A Nunberg will want for nothing rrest of his life; the Repubs will take care of himc.

Pardon would only give credence to everything Nunberg says. As is they can spin that he is unbalanced.
