Plausible, for that situation to happen? Sure, in the right context, that’s a good joke.
But you have to keep in mind, this is the guy who is conspiring with Mueller, literally the day after Trump fired Comey, on Rosensteins own advice. He then takes Mueller to the WH under the pretense of interviewing for the FBI job the day before appointing him special council?
This is the guy who is claiming it was a joke.
I’m not saying McCabe isn’t a fucking liar, because he is. But that doesn’t change the fact that its just as likely if not more likely that Rosenstein was brainstorming legitimate schemes to try and get Trump.
Oh, I know. I'm not giving him the benefit of the doubt as to his allegiance in all of this. But this point may not be the best way to attack. As you said, McCabe is a dirty liar and could have been purposefully taking it out of context. There's no deniability when you walk into the oval office with a wire on, so I think Roddy Boy would have been smart enough not to go that way.
Roddy Boy comes off as thinking he's smart enough to get away with anything against anyone. So many times a good question would be asked and he'd get this smile on his face like "well Senator, let me show you how much smarter I am than you by giving you a bullshit answer"

I think they meant more of the sense of it was tongue-in-cheek rather than a haha funny joke
I assume there is a reasonable explanation where they are, in fact, both lying.
I think that’s fair.
