If youre waiting for any help from your pResident, up to and including a presidential pardon, its time to abandon all hope, ye who enter into that foolish mindset.
You know probably better than most how vindictive Trump is, and how he never allows even a perceived slight to go unnoticed or unpunished. If he thinks for a minute that anything youve said or done has tightened the noose around his neck, he will let you rot in prison before he does anything on your behalf.
Keep in mind that your pResident has no regard for facts. If he believes that you have shown any disloyalty to him, or have cooperated in any way with investigators, he wont be dissuaded by any evidence you may proffer up in hopes of changing his mind.
You know again, better than most that Trump doesnt even have a passing familiarity with the truth, that he lies without hesitation. If you think he wont lie about you and your activities in order to deflect attention away from his own guilt, youre trippin.
Trump is all about Trump. No one else matters NO ONE. He would throw anyone under the bus if he thought it would save his own skin. He would see Jared, Ivanka, and Don Jr. in orange jumpsuits before hed admit to any wrongdoing on his own part.
If your beloved pResident has promised you a pardon in exchange for keeping your mouth shut, you might want to review his track record when it comes to keeping his word about anything.

"Don't worry. If worse comes to worst, I'll get to pardon you - just like I got Mexico to pay for the wall."
