Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen will refuse to answer questions about ongoing investigations but is willing to tell anecdotes about working for President Trump when he appears on Capitol Hill, two Republican lawmakers said on Tuesday.
Rep. Mark Meadows of North Carolina and Rep Jim Jordan of Ohio said their staff discussed Mr. Cohens planned testimony in February with his lawyer and spokesman, Lanny Davis, a longtime Bill and Hillary Clinton loyalist.
The two said Mr. Davis was evasive when asked if Mr. Cohen is paying him. They wondered whether the entire plan is a media stunt initiated, produced and financed by career Democrat political operatives as a way of scoring political points against the president.
The two said Mr. Davis successfully convinced Elijah E. Rep. Cummings, Maryland Democrat and chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, to hold a public hearingwith lots of strings attached.

Looks like Lanny Davis, Elijah Cummings and the Rats have set up a character assassination show on President Trump.

Just imagine if our side did this to democrats what the caterwauling would sound like. The republicans just bend over and say 'kick us again' every time.

Many in the GOP still despise Trump. So if this useless lawyer says a bunch of stories that make Trump look bad its fine by them.

The Dems will look very foolish if this is true.
This won’t go over well at all, imo.

I wonder if Pres. Trump will have an attorney at the hearing to “object” when any potential atty\client privilege might start to be discussed.
Plus have WH counsel (Flood ?) there in case there might be executive privilege involved if Cohen starts talking about official POTUS business.

REPUBLICANS need to repeat over and over and over again that Cohen is a convicted liar. Ask him again and again:
“Have you been convicted of Lying to Congress?”.
“That makes you a liar.”
“NO ONE believes you Mr. Cohen.”
“Was this testimony arranged by your Democrat activist Lawyer Lanny Davis?” When he says NO:
“Are you lying AGAIN Mr. Cohen?”
Every minute a Republican spends, every sound bite, should be calling this weasel a “Convicted Liar”.

Lanny Davis is a scummy Clinton sycophant.
He will throw Cohen under the bus if there is any way he can.
But Cohen has pretty much inserted himself under the tires of the bus already.
Two scummy lawyers lol

Mr. Trump needs some form of legal representation there, so long as it’s NOT Rudy. Anybody but him.
To: ltc8k6
I would like to see the Republicans subpoena Lanny Davis about all that he knows about the Clintons. This is like Hilary Clinton intervening in the investigation and she certainly has a lot invested in what Mr. Cohen has to say.
