    Right, but my point was the “advice of counsel” defense isn’t the get out of jail free card that Trump and Bannon are trying to portray it as. There’s a whole ordeal that has to occur for that defense to be valid. It’s much more than the “Hey, my lawyer said it was OK, so I went with it. We’re good now, right?” argument that they’re trying to make.
