MSNBC legal expert: Cohen flipping puts Trump 'one witness away' from catastrophe
The Hill ^ | 7/30/2018 | Justin Wise

Posted on 07/30/2018 6:25:01 PM PDT by bitt

George Washington University law professor and legal expert Jonathan Turley said Monday that President Trump's former personal attorney Michael Cohen flipping could mean that the president is "one witness away from a potential catastrophe."

“I think the Cohen development is very serious,” Turley, who is an opinion contributor at The Hill, said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe." “He’s one witness away from a potential catastrophe. If any of those five witnesses breaks and supports Michael Cohen, this will get real bad, real fast."

Turley may be a lawyer, but what he constantly puts out is his personal opinion which isn’t based in law or the Constitution. He is just like all those liberal judges who rule on what their political beliefs are, not the law or Constitution.

Totally appropriate - all this stuff is like a never ending roadrunner cartoon.

No, I don't really expect the Demonrats to retake the House.

"Trouble" does not necessarily mean "impeachment." I point you to the example of the "crisis" of separating illegal immigrant children from the adults they are accompanying. We know it was all B.S., but virtue-signaling GOPe squishes started squealing too.

Do you remember how James Comey was loathed by Democrats for what he did in Oct., 2016 while Republicans loathed him for what he did in July? What happened when Trump finally fired him? We had a "bipartisan" Uniparty scream fest about how the firing was a Constitutional Crisis.

This appears in Wikipedia on Michael Avenatti:

Born on February 16, 1971, in Sacramento, California, Avenatti spent his early childhood in Colorado and Utah.[19] Avenatti moved with his family to Chesterfield, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis, in 1982, where he attended Parkway Central High School.[20] After graduating in 1989, Avenatti attended Saint Louis University for a year before transferring to the University of Pennsylvania, where he graduated with a B.A. in political science in 1996. In 1999, he earned a Juris Doctor from George Washington University Law School in Washington, D.C., where he worked with Professor Jonathan Turley on constitutional issues relating to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).

Your spine made out of boiled to death spaghetti, is it?

Buck up...the PEOPLE are ignoring this garbage!

Go to YouTube and watch the #WALKAWAY videos and feel better.

Again, you miss the point. The Swamp doesn't seem to care that the People are tuned out on Mueller.

And citing the #WALKAWAY videos is also not relevant. I like them as much as the next Freeper. But they are beside the point here. As I said before, I don't anticipate a Democratic victory in November.

Quit accusing me of being a Squish-- you obviously don't know me.

People, People...please...use the proper MSM 4:00 a.m. terminology

“It’s the beginning of the end of the Donald Trump ( insert here ) campaign or administration or ????”

Amazing coincidence!

Turley is a shart.

Donald Trump has more lives than a collective cattery.

Derschewitz (sp) was being laughed at and accused of defending President Trump on Msnbcqrstuvwxyz, as he tried to explain the civil liberties Mueller, et al, were infringing upon. He wouldn’t be drowned out, but they just laughed at him. It wouldn’t surprise me a bit, if he switched to conservatism. He’s a staunch Constitutionalist, an old style democrat, whose party has deserted him. He was furious!

I guess this is finally the beginning of the start of the commencement of what will eventually be the end for him, right?

Right?

Just because you have a law degree doesn’t mean that you graduated with “common sense”.

Turley, Avenatti, Cohen, Chemirinsky, Allred, etc. Proof of that, as well as many of the lawyers in Congress.
