Lanny Davis: "Under No Circumstances" Would Cohen Seek Pardon from Trump
YouTube ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/22/2018 4:47:28 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

On CNN, asked whether Michael Cohen might seek a pardon from President Trump, Cohen's lawyer Lanny Davis says:

"The answer is definitively 'no.' Under no circumstances. Since he came to the judgment after Mr. Trump's election to the President of the United States that his suitability is a serious risk to our country. And certainly after Helsinki, creates serious questions about his loyalty to our country, his answer would be, 'no, I do not want a pardon from this man.'"

Lanny Davis says his client Michael Cohen would not seek and does not want a pardon from President Trump.

Davis laughably says that’s because Cohen doesn’t think Trump is fit for office, and doubts Trump’s loyalty to the country.

So, what are Davis’ real reasons for saying this?”

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

With this guy as your attorney, who the heck needs a prosecutor?

As you’ll see in the video, Davis can’t get out a straight sentence. A jumbled mind, or a just a guy who’s been up all night?

Laura Ingraham had a good tweet:

Good Qs for Lanny Davis:

When is the last time you spoke to the Clintons or any of their close associates?

And did Cohen waive atty-client privilege with you?

Great, Lanny, what a great lawyer. Send your client to prison for 64 years. Who needs a stinkin’ pardon?

(I always thought this guy was a schmuck.)

Ah, lawyers and lawyers of lawyers.

I wish they’d just crawl back under the rocks where they belong, along with the other reptiles and vile, dirty things.

Lanny’s a bit long in the tooth...but the SCUMBAG hasn’t changed.

Wait - a lawyer who secretly taped his client is concerned about the client’s loyalty to the US?

WTH does Trump/Putin meeting in Helsinki have to do with Cohen? Have they been feeding this guy fake intelligence to get him to turn on Trump?

Davis is SUCH a partisan shill

I’m actually stunned Cohen chose an attorney that would make it blatantly obvious that this stuff is politically motivated.

Lanny’s so close to the Clintons that they can’t fart without him feeling it.

Don’t you even want to make it LOOK like you’re doing it on principle?

The crimes he plead guilty to don’t even exist!

Lanny Davis is a politician and a Clinton operative. This is a political hit sponsored by...guess who...

What lawyer advises his client to plead guilty to something that is not a crime?

What lawyer then would not want a pardon for their client?

Totally bizarre

Cohn must have suffered a breakdown to hire a Clinton lacky who is willing to sacrifice his client to exact revenge for his sore loser girlfriend Hillary

Lanny Davis started a Go Fund Me page to get paid. He doesn’t have any ulterior motives does he?

I was told by a lawyer, who is close in my circle, that I shouldn’t be surprised if Cohen pleads guilty to something that isn’t a crime at all. This was early lunchtime yesterday, only when we knew that something was coming from the Cohen camp.

I never knew this was a “thing” until she told me.
