Trump lawyer Cohen says will take 5th in Stormy Daniels case

[Silurian]

As I predicted earlier, the reality TV president is distancing himself from Cohen. Soon Cohen will just be another coffee boy. I hope Cohen gets tossed under the bus. He has many tales to tell!

 

President Trump distances himself from personal attorney Michael Cohen, says the lawyer handled only 'a tiny, tiny fraction' of his legal work

Off-topic posts removed.   There is an entire thread about Trump and his presidency.   This is a more specific topic about Cohen and the Stormy Daniels affair.  

 

Please stay on topic.

They are trying to present it as "the offices were raided looking for evidence in the S.D. case, anything else is irrelevant."

This is like a US police officer working a Saturday night drink driving checkpoint, and sees a corpse in the back seat of a stopped car.

"You passed the breathalizer sir, you're free to go."

It has been said that if he takes the Fifth she will be unable to depose him and therefore unable to gather information needed.  I really don't understand her case. As far as I understand it, she took the $130,000, didn't keep quiet and wants to be released to give her story.  What's she going to reveal at this point? Like everything it's about how she can turn this into a money making deal. Cohen's problem with the feds is a different matter altogether.  

It will reveal that Trump used campaign finances to try and silence her...quack quack oops!

 

It will just delay her deposing him and then Avenatti will just call for the deposition from the next witness....Trump. And what happens when POTUS pleads the 5th? Quack quack oops!  

 

MAGA....Michael Avenatti - Great Attorney.

Good point, and one that I've thought a lot about in the past 2 weeks.

 

Liberals are somewhat confident that, if investigators find other evidence of crimes (for example: kiddie porn) in Cohen's files, ....they'll pursue those other issues.  Right-wingers allied with Trump are hoping to limit the retrievable/usable items to nil.  

 

With Trump's millionaire and well-connected allies, I think the Right-Wingers will prevail.  They have a deep bag of dirty tricks.

Trump claimed he knew nothing about the keep quiet payment deal by Cohen, now states he knew of the deal. Beyond me how so many still support Trump even when he admits blatantly lying with no remorse.

Trump has impeached written all over his presidency.

Him if anyone but keep in mind in the U.S. presidency not even one president has been impeached and forcibly removed by conviction. I have very little doubt that "trump" has committed multiple crimes worthy of such radical action, but Americans are perhaps overly careful not to allow impeachment to be anything like a politically based option. So more realistically, the democrats need to totally castrate the hot mess of the "trump" presidency by taking over the house and the senate in November. That way "trump" will be be trumped and impeachment though then easier to do may be seen as redundant.

I believe Swamp King is more of a traitor than anything else. Here's an interesting similar view.

For what banging a hooker 10 years before he became President ?

Pathetic I am open to listening but you guys are way off on what can be impeached and banging a hooker is not one of them especially since it was a decade before he ran for president and has ZERO to do with his presidency and the only person that has an interest in that is his wife.

Jeez, it's not banging the hooker that is the problem it's the cover up that's pathetic

 

And even if we agree with you that it's stupid and old news you have gotta ask yourself  "if it was not a big deal then why pay $130,000 dollars for silence "

Money Laundering, Fraud, Tax evasion, lying to federal authorities, defamation, libel, treason, rape of a 13 year old AND 12 year old girl, sexual assault (numerous counts). Apart from that, he is as clean as a whistle  .

You forgot to add using illegal immigrant labour on one of his construction sites...........settled out of court to keep it quiet.

 

Problem was that he knew they were illegal and was therefore paying them under market rates...........a scumbag twice over!

Swam King is a total scumbag. He swore ... lol lol coming from a pathological liar who would believe him taking an oath... to uphold and defend the U.S. Constitution. He has not and if anything has done his best to undermine U.S. institutions. He has not addressed Russia's "act of war" and has not done anything to punish them or stop them from altering future U.S. elections. He is a disgrace to America and American freedom/democracy. I hope he chokes on a cheeseburger.  Impeachment w/out jail or a padded cell is being lenient. He is a vengeful bastard; I hope it comes back on him from everyone he's negatively impacted. May his name be synonymous to scum/lie/treachery.

I suspect you and other informed individuals already know this but I think it's worth noting in case the ill informed want different information. In an article (link attached) there is a para. stating, "The Trump administration is already one of the most corrupt and scandal-ridden administrations in the history of the United States. “More than at any time in history,” write Joy Crane and Nick Tabor in a recent New York magazine article documenting Trump’s corruption, “the president of the United States is actively using the power and prestige of his office to line his own pockets: landing loans for his businesses, steering wealthy buyers to his condos, securing cheap foreign labor for his resorts, preserving federal subsidies for his housing projects, easing regulations on his golf courses, licensing his name to overseas projects, even peddling coffee mugs and shot glasses bearing the presidential seal.”

The Trump name will not bode well historically and well deserved.

I honestly believe that if Trump were convicted on all counts and was headed to the federal pen in an orange suit screaming "But I'm innocent!" his idiot supporters would still believe him.  That's how hopelessly deluded these people are.

Trump shielders in the WH are admitting: the Stormy storm is probably more dangerous for the prez than the Mueller investigation, ....and could cause Trump's resignation.

A decent person resigns when there position becomes untenable... can not see trump resigning even if they take him out the WH house in handcuffs.

 

As this is a civil matter and not criminal he can do an out of court deal as every person has a price and Stormy's would only make a small dent in Trumps bank account.

Swamp king wouldn't care if there was full scale civil war as long as he can benefit. Hell, he's undermining U.S. Institutions in hope that he can ensure full dictatorship. He does not care a/b rule of law and w/out that there is no democracy. He is a very sick man but a criminal mastermind.

I really think the Trump haters on here are really lacking in any type of intelligence all emotionally charged and totally ignoring facts.

But I guess that is the LEFT of today you only have to look at Antifa and the Hundreds of interivews on youtube to realize we are dealing with very low intelligence beings.

WOW you have a wild and vivid imagination rape of a 13 and 13 year old thats a new one on me 

Must be the next BS fake story the left will be pushing.

Trump will NEVER BE IMPEACHED because there is nothing to impeach you guys can keep dreaming all day and grasping at any fake story thinking it is real but the reality is you have had 1 year in the run up and threw EVERYTHING AT HIM and HE STILL WON 

Now you have had over a year conjuring up fake crap like Russian collusion etc and you STILL CANT TOUCH HIM 

The left is pretty PATHETIC but you can all keep DREAMING while TRUMP KEEPS WINNING

Not just them. Those damned liberals at Fox are saying the same thing:,

 

Cavuto to Trump: 'How Can You Drain the Swamp if You Keep Muddying the Waters?'

"In his Common Sense monologue Thursday, "Your World" host Neil Cavuto criticized President Donald Trump for a series of factually disputed statements and a history of changing the record on things he previously claimed.

Cavuto pointed to the change of tune since Trump first claimed not to recall anything about the payment made by his attorney Michael Cohen to porn star Stormy Daniels...

"You [now] insist that money from your campaign played no role in this transaction," Cavuto said of Trump's Thursday clarification.

I really think you need to educate yourself before you make such stupid comments. It will stop you being disappointed later. I guess it would be shocking to look in the mirror and realise that you support a rock spider. - you do and the evidence is overwhelming.Eeeeew ! do you feel soiled and dirty? You should. Now go and read read read.
