The question is simply whether Coehen has been forced by Mueller to make up something about President Trump. Anything Trump related in Cohen’s files cannot be admitted into evidence , because of attorney client privilege.

Mueller has a lot of items from Cohen’s Trump legal files that Mueller wants to question Trump about....but thankfully the president will not speak with Mueller. Let Mueller subpoena the president and bring on a constitutional crisis.

Enough dirty pool, end the WITCH HUNT!

Giving money to a whore to shut her mouth about a BJ she gave him 12 years ago is not a crime and that’s all they are ever going to get from him and I can imagine it’s driving the left and Mueller nuts.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

and remember trump had the money in his pocket to settle her claims if that’s what happened.

compare to w.j. “bubba” clinton who settle the sexual harrassment lawsuit with paula jones for $850,000 that he didn’t have.

he had to sell his soul for 3 decades to pay that favor off.

but even that 850k bimbo erruption was not enough to impeach clinton.

Cohen is going to regret he turned on Trump. No chance now for a presidential pardon.

What people have on Sessions prior to the time he became AG.

DJT knows if he were to fire Sessions now, it looks very bad but then again, what has Sessions done with regard to anything Trump-related? Nothing. I think he ought to fire him.

“Aren’t we going to wait for the details?”

We have been getting many of the details. And with each detail it gets closer to war... If Cohen turns on Trump, it will be an all out war. Not with me, but Trump is very strategic and we’ve seen nothing of his full potential to date.(and the potential of the American people.)

G.Gordan Liddy was one of the 4 tramps detained from behind the grassy knoll in Dealy Plaza the day JFK fell. Also detained were 2 other Watergate burglers who were with him in both places.....

BREAKING: Source say that the Michael Cohen deal with federal prosecutors is a "straight up guilty plea" and "is not going to be some sort of cooperation deal." pic.twitter.com/Nq1y5gdcEn

— Ryan Saavedra 🇺🇸 (@RealSaavedra) August 21, 2018

(Via CNN) […] As part of the plea deal under discussion earlier Tuesday, Cohen was not expected to cooperate with the government, one source told CNN. However, by pleading guilty both Cohen and prosecutors would avoid the spectacle and uncertainty of a trial.

[…] Prosecutors said in court their investigation is into Cohen’s personal financial dealings. The search warrant authorizing the FBI raid referenced Cohen’s taxi medallion business and the identity of banks that loaned him money. (more)

If they’re letting him please bargain NOW, I can’t help but think the prosecutor isn’t very confident of his case. What he pleas to could be worse than the jury’s verdict. Then, at least they get him on SOMETHING. If they were confident of a guilty verdict, they would allow it. They’re worried.

To hell with lying ass Cohen. It’s his word against Trump and it has nothing to do with Russia. This SOB needs to go into the witness protection program. He’s tried to destroy the president.

My - what a snowflake. Drudge links to news stories. He doesn’t write them. You want Drudge to link to only happy good news stories and avoid reality. You are all emotion.
