So let me get this straight, the lawyer Trump gave him turned out to only be looking out for Trump? And he turned state’s witness when he got a real lawyer and figured out how effed he was? Wow, what a crazy world.

Let the record show that the first person to become a cooperating witness was the IT guy. Remember kids, it is Black Friday rules – he who flips first gets the best deals.
