You all remember Sam Nunberg, right? No? We didn’t either, but he’s doing a lot of talking today and it’s like Christmas for The Resistance and the mainstream media. Nunberg, a former aide to Donald Trump, said Monday that he thinks special counsel Robert Mueller might have something on the president.
Here’s CNBC’s piece, including a bit of an interaction with Katy Tur in which Nunberg says he thinks Mueller may have something on Trump.
Adding to the drama: Nunberg also said that he was refusing Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s subpoena.

Nunberg also had quite the interviews with CNN’s Gloria Borger and Jake Tapper in which he complained about the amount of paperwork requested by Mueller’s group.
"Mueller thinks Trump is the Manchurian candidate. I tell you, I disagree with that," former Trump aide Sam Nunberg tells @GloriaBorger

Nunberg: "I'm not gonna cooperate, Jake. I'm not going to spend 80 hours going over email. I'm not going to go into a grand jury so they can set up a case against Roger Stone because they don't like Roger."

Tapper had some impromptu legal advice for Nunberg:
Nunberg: "Do you think I should cooperate?" @JakeTapper: "If it were me, I would." https://t.co/QBKkHJEb7Y

“I am not a fan of Donald Trump. He treated me like crap,” Nunberg told Tapper, but he also called the Mueller probe “a witch hunt.”
Congratulations to @JakeTapper on the craziest 20 minutes of air time I've watched in months.

I am still confused about who exactly Sam Nunberg is
— Haley Byrd (@byrdinator) March 5, 2018
I was just going to pretend to know who he was at first but then he kept talking

A "communications consultant" to Trump campaign in 2015. "Informal adviser" apparently, after that. Roger Stone acolyte (thus the nutbar factor).

Most people's psychotic breaks aren't nationally televised on a Tapper CNN interview

Nunberg STILL talking on @cnn to the chagrin of his future attorney: "Trump may very well have done something during the elections. If he did that, I don't know."

If your key witness is Sam Nunberg, you have no case.

Nunberg is an excellent example of why we need better mental health treatment in America

Sam Nunberg seems to be in need of things *other* than a lawyer at the moment. (I mean, obviously he also needs a lawyer who can get him to stop doing stuff like that).

If someone doesn't autotune a song out of Nunberg's longwinded answers I don't even know why we internet anymore.

Sam Nunberg is you child's friend's dad that won't shut up at the birthday party about how ridiculous it is that the bouncy place charges for bottled water.
