MSNBC's Symone Sanders Scolds Michael Cohen For Asking Biden For Hunter-Like Pardon
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/11/2025 9:05:26 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

On MSNBC, Michael Cohen said that he had applied for one because he believes himself to be on a Trump "enemies list." He continued:

"Yeah, I put in the application for a presidential pardon because I believe that Joe Biden has the same responsibility to me that he had to his own son. And I would expect that the same exact pardon that he gave his son has to go to me."

That prompted this pointed [see screencap] response from co-host Symone Sanders, a former Kamala Harris spokesperson:

"I am struck by your, your, your, your comparing yourself and Hunter Biden. And I wonder if, well, I'm going to tell you, Michael Cohen, because we're on national TV, we're gonna have a conversation. I don't necessarily think that's your best way to go get a pardon. I mean, Hunter Biden is the president's last surviving son."

Cohen retorted: "I'm also somebody's son."

Countered Sanders: "Agreed. You are somebody's son. But to be very clear, you're not the president's son."

They haven't been challenged. They have assumed much of their power with the tacit approval of the people, according to one jurist.

He could have stood by Trump but he betrayed him. He did not choose wisely. He deserves to sweat and get what’s coming to him.

I’ve been advocating here for no retribution campaign. That would take too much time and energy. Which is not to say that we shouldn’t fire every deep stater we can

Cohen is broken. No longer of any use to the left, he’ll be kicked to the curb. Convicted felon, not trusted by anyone. He really believes what he’s saying. Let him alone, scared, sniveling in the corner.

Now Liz Cheney, she needs to be made an example of. The DC bar won’t disbar her, but there is an outstanding complaint. Communicating with a represented party without the lawyers knowledge is a big deal. She’s also guilty of suborning perjury. Even if she’s never charged, a nice long and very uncomfortable investigation is in order

Gonna need a biologist to figure out all this.

He maybe should have played the Jew card instead of the son card.
