Screw "The Rule of Law".

The Democrats want what they've created here? They're going to get it good and hard.

"The Law" is nothing more than who controls the most gunthugs, now.

How Forcing Michael Cohen To Divulge Attorney-Client Communications Damages The Rule Of Law

Forcing? Nobody is forcing Cohen to divulge anything. He's doing it of his own free will.

The single best thing to come out of this whole charade is that people have lost a lot of faith in their own lawyers and in the integrity of the entire legal system. This can only be good for America.

Personally, if I was a juror in a Federal case I would have no inclination to convict anyone who is accused of a crime based on any FBI testimony or other evidence.

They don’t care, that’s a problem for the future. Right now the Dems care only about one thing: damaging Trump, either to impeach, indict, or beat him in the 2020 election so they can have their power back and undo everything he has done.

Do not forget this is a war. Mikey Cohen is a pissant POW who would rat out his own mother to get an extra bowl of rice. Forget him. Concentrate on the real war that is going on - the war against Trump.

I’m not sure that if you’ve been told to violate the law that attorney-client privilege is still relevant.

The “Rule of Law” no longer exists. And hasn’t since the Clintons and their henchmen were allowed to go scott free for their many crimes. The purpose of the law and courts is to control the serfs and punish the political enemies of the Left.

If Cohen doesn't deliver proof that Trump violated the law, can Trump sue Cohen for violating Lawyer Client privilege? Here's what Cohen has actually said:

As you said, laws do not apply to Leftists. Remember when GM filed for Chapter 11 back in 2009? Here is an excerpt from a blog: Twenty-First Century Society; Investors Betrayed by Obama and GM


"...Rather than being a referee, the primary role of government in a legitimate economy, the government became a player, competing with its own citizens and throwing a rigged game in favor of General Motors—actually its union. On November 24, 2010, a record 20.1 billion shares was sold in a new public offering at around $35 per share.

What happened to those most faithful GM investors who had kept their money in the old GM? Their shares—which had been placed in MTLQQ—were worthless. Who received the new stock ahead of the IPO? The General Motors Trade Union and the U.S. Treasury.

One despondent investor wrote:

I’m still holding GM stock that Obama DROVE DOWN from $35.00 to 28 cents or less ! My “old” stock is now worth NOTHING ! Having purchased GM vehicles for most of my lifetime for most in my family, I can tell you I will NEVER purchase another General Motors product and will continue to advise everyone I know to avoid ‘enriching’ GM and their “Thug” Union any further. I wish Obama and his socialist supporters the absolute worst that could possibly befall them.—Response to Washington Times article

While the government lending money to private companies is generally unprincipled, the General Motors bailout was radically different from the Chrysler bailout in 1980. In 1980, under President Jimmy Carter, the government co-signed a note for $1.5 billion (a government guarantee on private loans) on the condition that Chrysler essentially restructure in a way that provided an additional $2 billion in commitments or concessions. In that deal, investors kept their shares, the government did not shell out taxpayer money (although it was on the hook), and unions and management made the largest concessions. When Chrysler recovered, faithful investor shares recovered as well. In the GM case the loyal investors were left out in the cold.

The real loser in the General Motors deal is the legitimacy of the economic system in the United States. Although there were large profits to be made from the launch of the new GM IPO, a precedent has been set whereby a government administration can confiscate the ownership of a company, reorganize it, and pay off its political supporters. The former investors were betrayed by political decree, and once betrayed, the legitimacy of the system will never be the same..."

The investors who paid money to be first in line to get anything as is normally done in a Chapter 11 were instead screwed and got squat, an inversion of what is done and what is a piece of the machinery that makes investment worthwhile for people taking a risk. The Obama Administration and the Left simply turned it on its head.

They have done damage that goes beyond anything that happened to GM. And in this case, they are doing damage to the legal system beyond their short-sighted desire to bring down a sitting President.

The Left is a Domestic Enemy of the United States.

He’s not divulging attorney-client communications. He’s telling complete lies.

I’m sure if Hillary Clinton or Pres. Obama’s attorney’s office had been raided, and then that individual been “asked” to testify at a hearing, it would gone over fine with Media and Dems.

This is truly a disgraceful performance that will damage attorney-client relations and the legal profession. Where the hell is the ABA and New York bar in all this???

Trump hatred trumps all, evidently.

But it’s really bad that the American Civil Liberties Union posted an article cheerleading the raid.

Showing them to be the frauds we knew they always were.
