I think Ty Cobb is striking out here.
“Trump is a narcissist so I ran to the nearest See BS camera I could find to bring attention to myself about this”
... and Obama, Clinton & Biden are pure in this regard? A bigger bunch of chest-thumping zeroes I’ve never seen.
Funny they seldom (if ever) say these things about Hillary or Obama in INGSOC media.
Other than Don Jr., Eric, and possibly Rudy Giuliani, is there anyone who was a part of Trump’s inner circle that hasn’t turned on him yet?
Yes, Trump personally was a $h!+a$$. He was boorish. Yes, he would sometimes play a little fast and loose with the truth and embellishment (really now, what politician doesn’t?????) He was unrelenting in his self-promotion. At times, he was downright unlikable . . . BBBUUUUUTTTTT, in terms of policy and effectiveness, for regular Americans like me, he was clearly the best President of my lifetime . . . even better than Reagan.
“who is ‘incapable’ of acting out of anything other than self-interest”
That’s why he took an annual salary of $1.00 while in office.
So now a lawyer thinks he’s a psyciatrist.
After serving for a brief time as special counsel in the White House, examining the “Russian collusion” charges and as part of the WH legal counsel team to the Mueller investigation, Cobb commented that he did not think the Mueller Investigation was a “witch hunt”. If it was not a witch hunt, then what was it???
Speaking of character flaws, what kind of character would a former lawyer of a person constantly under attack by his enemies have to take it upon himself to reveal privileged information (and that would include his opinion of said client) to one of those enemies.

1. Honestly, the US Attorneys across the country have not wanted to pursue cases. For example, in Philadelphia, I’m aware of a case of alleged fraud brought to the USA’s office there and the individuals couldn’t even get through the door.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) December 1, 2020
2. I regret to say is misleading for AG Barr to issue his declaration to the AP as he did since the DOJ has been very passive.https://t.co/Bs1rhEgAQe— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) December 1, 2020
Educate yourself, Ty.
I’d like to know how much this old dirtbag got paid for this soundbite. I see that John Dowd who used to work for the DoJ was the one who recommended Corn Cobb.
He violated the rules of professional conduct by giving that interview. He should be disbarred.
One and only criticism of Trump; he aligned himself with so many disloyal piece of human debris. I’ m sure when he returns he will scrutinize candidates much better.
Cobb represented the institution of the presidency and not the president.
Cobb worships the ground Mueller and Weinstein walk on and despised Gulianni.
He’s a D.C. fixture who is as anti-American as Peter Strozk, Christopher Wray, James Comey and Merrick Garland.
When you’re in this clique it’s chic to trash Trump now, they’ll all get attaboys at the bar after work. Sickness.
Talk about a narcissist.
Ty Cobb should have stuck to baseball. Frankly, I’m surprised he’s still alive.
Protecting the confidentiality of client communications is a matter of honor and integrity (of the lawyer).
If this lawyer divulged such opinion to Major Garrett--and that is questionable--he has shown himself to be a man and a lawyer completely devoid of honor.
Cobb sounds like something I'd wipe my butt with.
Is this jerk a Liz Cheney (or Adam Kinzinger) paramour?
Trump got the job done.
