Even Joy Reid Skeptical of McClatchy Report on Michael Cohen's Cell Phone Near Prague

For the past couple of years, Trump-Russia collusion has been the holy grail for liberals desperate to find a way to remove President Donald Trump from office. Unfortunately for them, any actual proof of such collusion has yet to emerge.

What gave them hope that finally, FINALLY proof had been produced demonstrating Trump-Russia collusion came in the form of a Thursday piece from McClatchy correspondents Peter Stone and Greg Gordon that signaled from Michael Cohen's cell phone had been detected near Prague in the summer of 2016 despite a denial by him.

This report gave great joy to liberals who have thus far been bereft of any actual collusion proof. Unfortunately for them, this "proof" quickly proved to be so third party lame that even resolutely anti-Trump lefty and MSNBC host Joy Reid was skeptical of it. However, first let us see the McClatchy report, "Cell signal puts Cohen outside Prague around time of purported Russian meeting," which gave no indication of just how incredibly weak it was:

Exactly, Russian mis-information

Sometimes I wonder if the Russians are colluding with Hillary to take down Trump. They are good friends after all.

"MSNBC host Joy Reid was skeptical"

It seems ironic to me that such an angry person would be called 'Joy'.

” It seems ironic to me that such an angry person would be called ‘Joy’.”

I worked with a guy whose first name was Happy. The whole time I worked with him on a daily basis, he never once cracked a smile.

Even if one of Cohen’s many phones had been determined to have been near Prague, it’s not clear that the info would have been leaked before now. On the other hand, if this evidence actually existed, why wouldn’t Cohen try to use his potential testimony about it to get out of going to prison for three years?

That she thought it was sketchy is all a court of law should need to drop this.

Can’t imagine anyone hating Trump more than her/it.

Though there’s Behar, she of the senate “gerrymandering’ comment.

LOL! As I remember the skit one of the concert goers told a reporter afterward "This was by FAR the best of the Coat Shows!"

Of course this crap story was running on the FNC news crawl going across the screen throughout prime time. Ever notice the FNC news crawl is always the Rat talking points. They match the CNN crawl every time.
