Mulvaney outlined how Trump’s legal woes could play out in an opinion piece published in The Hill Wednesday morning.

He described an “outlandish” scenario in which President Joe Biden offers Trump a deal if the former president is convicted. Under that agreement, Biden would pardon Trump in exchange for his dropping out of the presidential race. Biden would then end his 2024 campaign to assure Americans that the deal was not done to make his reelection chances easier.

Mulvaney predicted Trump would ultimately accept that offer. While he said the scenario is not likely to happen, he described how the former president might approach such an offer to avoid serving time in prison.

    That sounds like the dumbest thing in the world, did Trump himself suggest this? He’d play it as “sacrificing himself to save America from another four years of Biden” and his base would eat that shit up. This makes the whole thing sound as though it was political from the get-go, like the only reason Trump is facing all these charges is because it’s a witch hunt and all Trump has to do is just bow out of the race and all his problems will go away.
