This is all fake put-on crap. He knew he was being investigated for corruption. He’s just trying to avoid prosecution by pretending to be mentally ill, and unfit to stand trial. He sure wasn’t mentally ill when he was trying to get Blago to appoint him Senator from Illinois..........

You have just pointed out why all this "shucken-n-jiven" by him is going on in order to establish a "diminished mental capacity" defense. They have been anticipating the coming prosecution and devised this defense to exonerate his conduct. My hope is that nobody, including a jury, doesn't buy it.
