And you avoid a trial, I guess. Maybe he's been instructed. Weeks/months of Trump's personal lawyer having his dirty linen aired in public would definitely be something the White House wants to avoid.You get a lesser sentence.
Just a good meme

That could be interpreted to mean they couldn't agree on one count, multiple counts or no counts at all.
