What about all the Congressmen that paid “hush” money to their playthings with taxpayer money? Guess they should be prosecuted too.

So women with claims that they had consensual sex with Trump hired lawyers and negotiated payments of large sums of money not to air their embarrassing claims.

Actually, they all hired the same lawyer. One of the allegations is that Cohen steered them to a lawyer who was secretly working with him (Cohen) against his clients' interests. If that gets proven (a big if), there is a real scheme to defraud here, and both Cohen and the women's lawyer are in real trouble.

I believe that the government is investigating whether there was, in connection with Trump’s White House bid, a conspiracy to commit fraud and extortion for the purpose of silencing potentially compromising sources — specifically, people in a position to portray Donald Trump as a womanizer.

lolololololololol - nobody cares!

We didn't elect the pope, we elected a self-admitted former playboy billionaire businessman. And we already know that Playmates and other sex workers were for sale. Hefner never kept it a secret. It's never been a secret some women trade sex for money and it's never been a secret some women are golddiggers and exploiters of targeted married men. Anna Nicole should have at least taught us that. Nobody cares about consentual adult hetero sexual relationships, unless the women didn't declare the income - in which case, we want the taxes they didn't pay. Otherwise, eh. Stop wasting tax dollars on stupid gotcha-prosecutions.

The pig government is very, very good at killing women, children and babies.

Why would one ask the opposition attorney for advice on who to hire for an attorney ?

No one does. But every one of the women who signed a non-disclosure agreement with Cohen (not only the women who allegedly had sex with Trump, but also the woman involved with that RNC official who resigned in the last few days) somehow wound up with the same lawyer. There are allegations (unproven at this point) that Cohen manipulated this behind the scenes. If those allegations could be proven (and Cohen's emails will be very relevant here), Cohen is in deep, deep trouble (but I doubt Trump gets tarred with this).
