Admiting he's guilty would undermine his whole world view of the United States. A rich white man can't be allowed to suffer consequences.

@jamie sure, but one way that rich white men avoid consequences is by sacrificing their underlings.

@jamie I doubt it. He's made deals before.
It's probably less important what his actual plea is, to him, than how he can spin it. "I'm guilty of loving this country too much", or some such baloney.

If he could do it without admitting guilt (i.e. not a guilty plea), maybe.
