Michael Cohen privately questions Trump's fitness to be president

Friends of Michael Cohen have noticed that since Trump's Helsinki press conference with Vladimir Putin he's been more openly questioning Trump's fitness to be president. "It's one thing for him [Cohen] to be concerned about his suitability to be president," a knowledgeable source told me. "It's quite another thing to be concerned about his [Trump's] loyalty to his country."

The source added that Cohen was sending a public signal to this effect when he tweeted, on Monday after Trump's Helsinki press conference: "As I said to @ABC @GStephanopoulos, "I respect our nation's intelligence agencies who determined that Russia, had in fact, interfered or meddled in our democratic process. I repudiate Russia's effort...and call on all Americans to do the same."

I heard that interview, and another in which Cohen would pop in to Hannity’s last hour. Davis is not all bad, and I seriously doubt Cohen will turn on DjT. He may need to protect himself and family from disaster, but he won’t rat out DjT.

With any luck, the ongoing disregard for privilege by the government and the involved attorney himself will do severe damage to the legal “profession.”

According to other articles, the “source” is ... Al Sharpton. I kid you not!

Cohen attended law school at Western Michigan, a bottom tier school that accepts practically everyone who applies and has a poor bar passage rate. Now, that's not to say that everyone who goes there is dumb. I'm sure that there are some bright people who attend a school like that out of convenience because they live in the Lansing area, are working a job in the area, are entering the legal field as a second career, etc. Cohen, on the other hand, is from Long Island. The primary reason for him to attend a law school like that is because he's not very bright. Ditto his undergrad school of American U. It's always had a reputation as destination for dumb rich kids.

Long before any of his troubles began, I was never impressed with Cohen. I used to cringe when he would come on the cable shows as a Trump surrogate. He always struck me as an obnoxious blowhard.

A few months ago, Cohen was vilified by the Left as a scumbucket mob lawyer fixer. Now he’s the voice of reason and all that is good. Same as Stormy Daniels.

Axios was started by guy that started Polutico.

Cohen has probably been made an offer, by the cabal, that he’s finding hard to refuse.

Perhaps Cohen is dangling bait.

“I repudiate Russia’s effort...and call on all Americans to do the same.”

Cohen calls on all Americans? Was he elected to some position of national importance that we don’t know about? Has he ever faced enemy fire on the battlefield?

Am I supposed to look to Cohen as my thought-captain?

These moonbats just keep boarding the crazy train.

I saw the entire joint news conference between President Trump and Vladimir Putin in Helsinki and it seemed perfectly fine to me, too.

Its been 1.5 years and I have yet to see a “source” named.


Mueller is working furiously to get as many crooked liberals from the Hellbama consortium in and immunized, before conservatives can gather up all the documents proving their guilt. That takes a while, you know.

Hey, now! It was hard work for Hillary to make it to a fifteen minute speaking engagement once or twice a week, during that campaign! Do you have any idea how difficult it is to memorize the same speech, over and over again for two years?
Or Hellary AND Oblunder, having to remember, in front of which crowd to slip into that smoooth black accent for? (And still, “I ain’t NO ways tard!”. I mean, what a trooper!
