Politico Hypes Roy Cohn Documentary as Latest Tool to Ruin Trump

Liberals seem to be so desperate to defeat President Donald Trump in 2020 that they are now digging up Roy Cohn from the grave to slam him despite the fact that the famed attorney has been dead for 33 years. This latest effort in the form of a documentary called, Where's My Roy Cohn? prominently features Trump, a fact that was hyped over and over again by Politico senior staff writer Michael Kruse in the September 19 Politico magazine.

Kruse's article makes sure to establish a Trump-Cohn connection in its title, "The Final Lesson Donald Trump Never Learned From Roy Cohn. Then came the subtitle: "The unrepentant political hitman who taught a younger Trump how to flout the rules didn’t get away with it forever." Of course, Trump is also prominently featured in the first two paragraphs of the hit piece:

Cohn was an amazing riddle:

Gay, he often said bad things against gays. And Jewish, he very often said the type of things about Jews that would automatically get a non-Jew fired, shunned.

Most important to Freepers, while Cohn was born a NYC Jew, he loathed communists down to the very tips of his boots and worked night and day to destroy them.

Cohn he understood power and leverage and he was plugged into the Manhattan scene in a major way:

He looked kindly upon Trump and gave him initial entree into the culture so close to Queens but sans introduction would have been off terms to Trump, socially and in terms of business.

I encourage Freepers to look into the amazing life story of Roy Cohn, an Eminence Grise of unstoppable and ruthless resolve.

Why is it NOW that The Left takes this loooooong overdue interest in Cohn?

Because Cohn wasn’t enemies with Trump.

And the MSM understands that because of Epstein and his very many similar friends, the Public Mind has been primed about blackmail stories rooted in sexual matters.

So for those two reasons, even though Cohn hails from two of The Left’s protected classes, they’re going go ahead and milk the story they long had kept a lid on.

The basic story is they were both from NYC and one made the other an introducaion and gave him the will to sue people on a pretty regular basis, if NYC push came to NYC real estate shove.

Will they make alllll manner of tangential implications about sex? They will try FOR CERTAIN.

Don’t forget, he was also a lifelong Democrat who is more respected by Republicans than by his own party!

People were posting a similar one a couple of months ago, These people need better weed. Nobody cares about Roy Cohn and McCarthy was right.
