Racketeering indictment. The Clock Ticking before they turn themselves in to the Fulton County jail next friday, with Pressure Mounting for some or all of trumps 18 codefendants to cooperate, you might think trump would be bending over backwards to ingratiate himself with them, keeping them from freaking out and flipping.
