No crime. Thank you, Mr. Levin.

Just trying to get Trump to resign and have his supporters run far away

just looking at the headlines yesterday, I had no idea that Cohen paid these girls with Trump’s money. They made it sound like a campaign expenditure.

If that is the case, this is really laughable.

Be really suspicious if Cohen gets off with a fine (and its paid by GODFUNDME)

We need to keep in mind that since 1997, the House of Representatives has paid out settlements of all types, including sexual activities of our elected officials to the tune of about $17M.

Candidate Trump would have had to use his personal money, not tax payer money, to craft settlements along the same lines. All of this is distasteful, but all of it seems necessary at some level. A billionaire diddling women who have deemed themselves as sex objects is not unfamiliar to the history of billionaires.

Politico and even Snopes admit to the existence of the House settlement fund, and very seldom are those settlements brought in to any courthouse. This fund was highlighted in December 2017 without much fanfare, but with many shoulder shrugs.

Politicians and public figures will be dealing with sexual accusations well into the future.

BTW, I don't care - Trump is a street-fighting insurgent, and we need him to fix stuff, even if it gets ugly. We indeed have double standards based on party affiliation. But MAGA anyway.

Shockingly, some women will absolutely throw themselves at billionaires. Equally shockingly, lots of billionaires will treat them like slam pieces.

Everybody knew The Donald was a hound. So what? Didn’t matter with Bill Clinton. The Democrats in the 90’s said “its just sex”....and we’re not even talking about sexual harrassment or even rape allegations against him.

They’ve got nothing. He paid a couple of former slam pieces to shut up. pfffft. That happens all the time in business and politics.

Boy, they must have had some really big slam dunk crimes on Cohen to get him to agree to plead to some made up crimes just to make Trump look bad. It’s what they didn’t file that’s the real story here.

The crime was committed by Davis. Why would a lawyer have his client plead guilty if there was any question whether the activity was unlawful? What was Davis offered by the swamp? What secret deals did he make with the swamp?

Here is the money line.

Lanny Davis, he had his client pleaded two counts of criminality that don’t exist.

Levin is right, but ultimately this is not a legal issue, it is political and a political prosecution using the legal system as a wedge. That’s the problem. It is just the opposite for Clinton, Imram and other Dems. They have committed crimes but it is the political system protecting them using the legal system. Our country no longer has real justice.

Extortion by federal prosecutors and collusion by the defense and the prosecutors.

I think Cohen has a good chance to get this stuff thrown out at some point.

btw, with all the Cohen and Manafort stuff going on, it reminded me of the Benghazi video and the film maker that was held for over a year based on what crime?

Our feds are out of control. Reel them in Real Donald Trump!
