Michael Cohen Already Exonerated President Trump
American Thinker.com ^ | July 30, 2018 | Brian Joondeph

Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen is the latest Willy Wonka golden ticket for the cable news magpies to salivate over. They finally got Trump. Fire up the impeachment panels, prepare the gallows.

The Hill provides a glimpse into the wishful thinking that Michael Cohen is their winning lottery ticket with this headline, “If Cohen is telling us the truth, Trump may end up like Flynn.” I’m not sure who reads The Hill other than the Washington DC branch of NeverTrump Club.

Good luck with that premise. The reality is that it’s Cohen who might end up like Flynn. Flynn was indicted for lying to the FBI about conversations he had with the Russian ambassador during the Trump transition period. He discussed sanctions against Russia and UN Security Council resolutions, all appropriate conversations for an incoming administration to have with a foreign power. That’s what the transition is for, to provide time for the new administration to get up to speed for the job ahead.

Flynn’s problem is that he didn’t remember what he said to whom on separate occasions, hence “he lied to the FBI”. Ask me on different days who I spoke to and details of my conversation from weeks ago and I may provide a slightly different answer each time. Is that a lack of a photographic memory or am I a liar?

What did Michael Cohen say last year, before he developed new memories about the infamous Trump Tower meeting? Did his new Clinton-fixer attorney Lanny Davis refresh his memory or did he insert a new memory chip into Cohen’s spine? Or did someone make him an offer he couldn’t refuse?

The Democrats are just projecting, since they did the same things themselves in Russia....

The FBI isn’t going to charge Cohen with lying. He’s their guy, as long as he does what they want.

Cohen was raided by the corrupt FBI months ago. He has still not been charged with anything. Weird, right?

What a waste of money. Millions of taxpayer dollars spent on investigating nothing.

Cohen has already testified under oath in front of the US Senate stating unequivocally that neither he nor Donald Trump had ever had any correspondence or collusion with any Russians during the 2016 campaign. Case closed!

I wish Manafort and Flynn had been pardoned as soon as charges that had nothing to do with the original investigation were made. Mueller's investigation should have had a time limit, one that should've been a few months ago. One can't help but wonder if President Trump's lawyer (Cohen) was advising him not to pardon them and not to stop Mueller's witch hunt.

President Trump's got to get some law-abiding, loyal Deplorables on this team. Honest folks not involved in politics or high-flying wheeling and dealing.

Millions spent trying to make something out of nothing.

“Millions spent trying to make something out of nothing.”

It has the smell of subversion about it.

IMHO
