# 2..Is Trump willing to go to jail for his family, friends and associates?
I don't know the answer to number 1.
I doubt that Trump would be willing to go to jail for anyone...answer to question 2..

(14,915 posts)As to 1), no doubt some people will not cooperate, but not out of personal loyalty to Trump -- Out of fear of revenge, out of not having enough knowledge of others' wrongdoings for a good proffer, out of arrogance or stupidity thinking they individually will get away with their crimes, out of hope that there will be a magic/hail mary way out.
And why will nobody including his kids go to jail *for* him, it is because the answer to 2) is zero, and they all know it. That said, I can see his idiot criminal kids acting against their own interests and being defiant to the end -- but that is different than falling on their swords expressly for the purpose of protecting him.

Or..Perhaps he could claim lawyer/client privilege? I suppose he could avoid testifying...but..in my opinion, Mueller might find a way around all of that..
