Special counsel Jack Smith took a meeting with attorneys representing former President Donald Trump earlier this year and reportedly sat in stone-cold silence while they pleaded with him not to indict their client.
Politico reports that ABC News reporter Jonathan Karl's new book on Trump's post-presidential life claims that Trump lawyers Trump attorneys Todd Blanche and John Lauro met with Smith's team over the summer and gave them a list of reasons why charging Trump with crimes related to his efforts to illegally remain in power would be a mistake.
According to Karl, Smith sat through through the presentation without saying a word.

I mean, this just sounds like he was being polite. Who would talk through someone's presentation?
Usually something like this would be a bit of a back and forth. But (supposedly) they said nothing, asked no questions, and then just said bye to them when they were done, that indicates a lot more than just being polite.
I had a manager who would sit in silence during every negotiation waiting for the tension to break the other person.
I knew that trick before the interview. That was a very awkward several minutes while we just sat looking at each other. He broke the silence and I got the job on the interview.
Yeah he was a weird guy.
I think they were joking...
Edit: I posted under the wrong comment, I meant that the commenter above was joking and the 1st comment didn't understand the facetiousness
It's entirely possible, I have to admit I could have totally missed it. Lol
