Sometimes it can be a great advantage to one’s future, career and soul, to change political affiliations because it doesn’t fit the life you want to continue living. If Trump was once living a Tabloid life as a Democrat, he has turned it around very successfully.

Since then curiosity about that deal has spawned intense media coverage and, this week, helped prompt the FBI to raid the hotel room and offices of Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen.

Well there you have it, no way the media could ignore the curiosity thus leading to an immediate raid of a lawyers documents.

This appears to be the new media justice system.

Don’t think for a moment that media outlets haven’t done the same for a Democrat.

Like the former Senator Jeffords?

The only one that we know of. The purpose of spiking a story is to kill it entirely, and media outlets could be very good at that when they want to be.

made a $30,000 payment to a less famous individual: a former doorman at one of the real estate mogul’s New York City buildings.

Hmmmm.

Hmm, with these payments how is anyone supposed to believe it’s to keep quiet to a pretense to spread rumors?

Guess the National Enquirer didn’t hear about the Clinton rapes.

Does anyone remember this interview: McDougal claimed to have an “affair” with DJT the same weekend that Porny Daniels said she had an affair. McDougal called Porny a liar, said it was impossible for Porny to have had an affair because she (McDougal) was with DJT that weekend. Porny and McDougal are calling each other liars, fake news media doesn’t want to talk about that!

Also, there was a big golf tournament Trump had played in during said weekend.

I watched the McDougal interview live on TV when McDougal first crawled out from under her rock.
