Several associates are turning on Donald Trump, including attorney Kenneth Chesebro, who pleaded guilty to a felony conspiracy charge and faces 100 hours of community service, five years of probation and a $5,000 fine. He must also truthfully testify against other co-defendants, including Trump. Which is a problem for the ex-president, because, when nutballs like Rudy Giuliani and Mike Lindell get in trouble, it just feels like it’s part of the plan, like it’s been factored in. But when an anonymous, white-collar Harvard guy goes down and says he’ll cooperate with prosecutors, that’s gotta be when Trump is thinking to himself, ‘oh no.’ Because if Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani ever flipped on Trump and told a jury Trump was guilty, Trump would be found innocent by the first lunch break, because they’re fucking nuts. Chesebro is a Harvard-educated lawyer with a long history in Washington politics who might actually be able to explain to a jury where the bodies are buried, as opposed to Rudy, who looks like a guy who knows the best places to dig one up. —Seth Meyers
