Hmmm...Cohen composing?

Cohen Hired IT Firm to Rig Early CNBC, Drudge Polls to Favor Trump Behind the scenes, Michael Cohen hired RedFinch Solutions, then allegedly stiffed it—and his boss

In early 2015, a man who runs a small technology company showed up at Trump Tower to collect $50,000 for having helped Michael Cohen, then Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, try to rig online polls in his boss’s favor before the presidential campaign.

In his Trump Organization office, Mr. Cohen surprised the man, John Gauger, by giving him a blue Walmart bag containing between $12,000 and $13,000 in cash and, randomly, a boxing glove that Mr. Cohen said had been worn by a Brazilian mixed-martial arts fighter, Mr. Gauger said.

After this story published Thursday morning, Mr. Cohen said in a tweet that he attempted to have the polls rigged with Mr. Trump’s knowledge.

“What I did was at the direction of and for the sole benefit of [Mr. Trump],” Mr. Cohen wrote. “I truly regret my blind loyalty to a man who doesn’t deserve it.”

Poor Con.

Smallest potato, ever. Considering Con “attempted” to influence polling, while we learn GOOGLE competently algorithmed 800,000 online polling votes, turning them into 4,000,000,000 VOTES FOR DEMS.

(Per the liberal guest and social psychologist appearing on TUCKER (FOXNews), last night.)

Weird story. So, is there a paper trail? Did he declare the income?

Stipulating that it's true: other than Cohen's creepy style of transacting business (cash in Walmart bags) is it illegal to bomb online polls? I assume it is not. (Let's face it we've been bombing online polls here at Free Republic since the early days.)

So it adds to the Left's outrage, it can be put into the upcoming impeachment charges, which the Left leadership is starting to lay out in public now. But it seems unlikely to result in criminal charges.

Still, Cohen is Mueller's bitch, so one has to assume that Mueller has put him up to this.
