[quote=Anonymous]Interesting take on Cohen's testimony by Nixon's former personal lawyer:

https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/watergate-master-manipulator-spots-republicans-100853055.html

[quote]Former Nixon White House Counsel John Dean tells CNN's @DonLemon that during Michael Cohen's testimony the Republican members of the House Oversight Committee "didn't defend the President. What they did is attack the witness. That shows a certain weakness"

Like Cohen, Dean was a member of the president’s inner circle. He also turned on his onetime boss and cooperated with prosecutors.

Republicans questioning Cohen “had nothing to offer in defense of the president’s character,” Dean said.

Last year, he noted another similarity between himself and Cohen.

“When I became a witness, there was a huge effort to discredit me,” Dean said at the time. “It was just my word against Nixon’s until the tape came out, and they worked mightily to try to discredit me.”

All of this sounds so familiar.[/quote]
