Don McGahn is possibly facing charges himself related to Russia, Comey, and the Trump campaign. Did his own legal peril compel him to co-operate with the Special Counsel investigation? McGahn has had Russia connections himself dating back to Tom DeLay and Jack Abraoff. He is no white knight.
He is counsel for "the Presidecy", not the President. Attorney-client privilege does not apply to his relationship to Trump or his criminal enterprise.
Is it possible that McGahn was wired? If Trump thought he was speaking to a personal attorney with solid protections, what did they talk about? Could Mueller have even MORE damning evidence in Trump's own words proving obstruction?
Trump is so ignorant of the law, and so enamored of his own perceived royal powers, that I find the most outrageous possibilities now fail to surprise.
Again, just idle speculation....Do not claim to have supporting evidence.
....but what if?

(9,874 posts)Everyone seems to think that because he talked to Mueller for 30+ hours he turned on Trump, but we really have no idea. Another explanation is that he gave Mueller a detailed story exonerating Trump and calling Comey a liar. Sure it would be really stupid for him to do so but others before him who thought they were geniuses have tried to fool prosecutors before. We will have to wait and see.
