Cohen allowing himself to be used by Lanny Davis on behalf of the democratic party. How much lower can any person get, let alone a “former” attorney?

Whatever fees and “gofundme” money is collected, is going into the democratic party’s campaign coffers, not directly, but, those moneys will end up helping the democratic party. That’s what Lanny is about and even if Cohen is being defensive, he’s helping the democrats.

BTW...

If Marc Rich was “pardonable”, then, so can anyone currently under indictment or found guilty under Mueller. Rich’s pardon was a lot more egregious for much bigger crimes.

Trump needs to take over the investigations. This Mueller and democratic party charade has gone on long enough, and they won’t rest until Trump is indicted for something, even if it’s about hating puppies and kittens.

He is facing up to five years in Federal Prison. He is once again lying. Of course he would take a pardon.

Liar!

Cohen flipped because even a federal pardon wouldn’t save him because the state of New York would come after him for tax evasion and bank fraud.

More interesting is that the novel crime of “NDA’s as a campaign violation” seems to be all he was able to proffer in exchange for his sorry hide.

I have no doubt that if there was any there, there; Mulehead would not have turned this over to SDNY for prosecution.

Even then, SDNY couldn’t get the timing right. Mid August is useless, why not save it for an October surprise pile on?

He might change his mind after he gets passed around the cell block a few dozen times.

So since he’ll never work as a lawyer again, who’s paying him to turn on Trump big time?? How much did he sell his soul for?

It makes sense to both worst case and best case this cohen situation.

The worst case is that Trump does have some legal exposure from the payoffs to the ladies and there are tapes to prove it.

The best case is that Trump has no exposure and can turn this to his political advantage

My sense one day after the plea deal is that these are unknowns to the witch hunt media or they would be talking about tapes. My sense also is that these are being brought out now instead of a week before the November election because they are sniping and not backed up by substance.

I expect Giuliani and Sekulow to begin dispelling the by Friday.

I wish to announce that I will not accept the Miss Universe award either. It’s equally likely.

Of course he won’t get pardon from Trump - why on earth would Trump do that for such a chicken betrayer??? On the other hand, Cohen has already been promised the pardon from Lanny Davis and the Democrat Party. How many lies in one day can Lanny Davis spout?

Somebody please tell me what paying ‘hush’ money to women has to do with campaign contributions.

What a crock. Cohen is saying what he is being told to say so the Tyrants don’t go after him for all his crimes unrelated to Trump.

But how to make the average voter understand this?

Boy Lanny Davis sure as hell played him like a fiddle! He’ll regret what he’s done till the day he dies.

This whole case is simply amazing, from the feds breaking into his office to him now declaring he wouldn’t even accept a pardon. I wonder if law schools will be teaching about this.
