Did you miss the part about the guilty proffer where Cohen states that he acted under the direction of "Candidate 1"? Do you think Cohen was acting on behalf of Sanders? Clinton? |
| Where are all the Republicans who impeached Clinton to restore dignity to the office of the Presidency. We could use some dignity right about now. |
There are 16 current members of the United States Senate who voted to convict Bill Clinton in his impeachment trial and remove him from office for less than what Donald Trump stands accused of tonight by Michael Cohen. “You don’t even have to be convicted of a crime to lose your job in this constitutional Republic, if this body determines that your conduct as a public official is clearly out of bounds in your role. Because impeachment is not about punishment. Impeachment is about cleansing the office. Impeachment is about restoring honor and integrity to the office.” Then-Rep. Lindsay Graham on the House floor, January 1999 |
They only care about the honor and integrity to the office when there is a democrat president in the office. Republican presidents cannot hurt the honor and integrity of the office by definition. |

| Have you seen the brief footage of Cohen leaving the court house today? He was checking his surroundings very closely. That man is seriously concerned for his life. |
Trump really needs to release his most recent, full tax returns to show he hasn't been cheating the government. |
No worries, Mueller has them already. |
| Nixon was named as an uninsured conspirator in Watergate. Just like Trump was named as an unindicted conspirator in Cohens guilty plea. |
All of Trump’s chickens are coming home to roost.

| If trump’s porn star affairs had come out in October 2016 has Instead of paid off by Cohen, I wonder if he would have won the election. Maybe combined with the access Hollywood tapes it would have been too much for some voters... |

This is a big liberal joke. Cohen would *never* have been convicted for campaign finance violations. He pleaded guilty to save his assets because the prosecutor had him dead on tax evasion. This is a very dishonest plea deal. #MAGA |
| And, I guess we can expect Rosie O’Donnell to be indicted soon for her illegal campaign contributions? |
Odds probably the same as Jared getting indicted for lying on his disclosure forms multiple times. Or Sessions lying to Congress, etc. |
| The things that were admitted to in court were items that were already 'known' in the public. My guess is that there is a sealed indictment/confession already done or in the works that is wider and deeper. Nothing new was revealed here, just more hard evidence of what we already knew/strongly suspected. |
