Even assuming Trump is personally innocent, he still has a motive to cut a deal with Maxwell that leads to an eventual pardon. She might name prominent Democrats or other people to whom Trump is hostile.
Her “pattern” suggests she’ll say anything Trump wants her to say.

Pallo! 🥰🥰🥰
Edes helle ei haittaa Maagin palloleikkejä, välillä tuntuu että se juoksisi itsensä hengiltä jos vaan heittäisi palloa noudettavaksi. Kyllä se oikeasti jossain kohtaa lopettaakin, mutta näin kuumalla ei ole viitsinyt niitä rajoja kokeilla.
Mutta pallo! 🥰🥰🥰

Mlle DoodleFace is lagging behind her new pack. Saga herds DF to keep up with the group, not letting DF go at her own pace, or rest when she needs to. The new dog walker only has high energy dogs on her walks, but recommended someone else who has more older dogs where DF can pace herself better.
Meanwhile, Saga is loving the new gang, so we'll probably spit the dogs up. DF won't care. Saga'll probably be a bit upset at first. Hope this works out for the both of them.
