TESTIMONY OF MICHAEL D. COHEN COMMITTEE ON OVERSIGHT AND REFORM U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
New York Time ^ | Feb 26 2017 | Michael Cohen

Posted on 02/26/2019 11:12:19 PM PST by saywhatagain

Never in a million years did I imagine, when I accepted a job in 2007 to work for Donald Trump, that he would one day run for President, launch a campaign on a platform of hate and intolerance, and actually win. I regret the day I said “yes” to Mr. Trump. I regret all the help and support I gave him along the way.

I have no sympathy at all for Cohen. He has dishonored himself and has disrespected his family and friends with his many public lies and his multiple violations of his ethical and professional oaths which have also done much damage to the integrity of the legal profession. As despicable, Cohen has turned his back on his former employer, now President of the United States.

I stop short of calling Cohen "evil", but I do hope his mental anguish during his incarceration and separation from his family is deep and painful.

This admonishing headshaking of Cohen’s following Repub questioning does not scream of a man whose been morally born again as he claims.

Cohen Slapped With Criminal Referral Mid-Testimony Over FARA Violation
Meadows pressed Cohen over his apparent failure to list contracts with foreign companies that paid him for access to the Trump administration, including Novartis, which paid Cohen $1.2 million to act as a consultant on the Trump administration, as well as $150,000 from South Korea’s Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) and a payment from Kazakhstan BTA bank.

Even the Democrats/Leftists can't save this "hearing", much less the despicable Cohen.

It's worth listening again to what Carol Miller of West Virginia had to say to him and about this "hearing". The captured the essence of the "hearing" in a few short minutes.

I think the media was told Cohen would provide "explosive" testimony implicating Trump. CBS even flew down NorDUH O'Donnell for the Trump perp walk. Now the only thing that came out of this is that Trump is vindicated and Cohen uses a decoder ring and only he can understand Trump's codes.

Describing herself first as a "black american" (Brenda Lawrence D-MI) introduces her remarks by saying she continues to be subjected to the "racism of this president" ... then goes on to say "this hearing is not about discrediting the President."

Every time I think the Democrats/Left cannot go any lower, they bring out a "fresh" angry, ugly-to-the-bone self-described "victim" to condemn America. I have become convinced the Democrat/Left Party has fallen into an infinite abyss with no hope (or intention) of getting out.

A real simple question that needs to be asked. In the ten years of Cohen working for Trump, what was the method of paying him for legal services and how much salary or hourly rate? Here’s what I think. Trump recused himself from all Trump business dealings. The various checks paid to Cohen were for legal services still outstanding before.

lol

A gay liberal site I go to occasionally for gossip is laughing hysterically about Cohen’s “exaggerated” marionette lines(the lines around the mouth).

They didn’t buy the Smollett crap but, of course, believe Cohen.... though it doesn’t stop them from ragging on his looks.

A lawyer whose first name means “Who is like God?” and whose last name means “Priest”. Working for the god of this world.

President Trump has denied the affairs with the two women.

The president directed Cohen to pay money to Stormy Daniels because he didn’t want bad press, even if it was untrue, in October 2016, less than a month before the election.

Again, the president denied the affairs.

Meanwhile, that never Trumper moron David French,
@DavidAFrench on Twitter, posted the following....

“By the way, the porn affairs and hush money payments by themselves are enough for me to never, ever vote for Trump,” posted French.

He continued, “And that’s just one thing.”

FU, David French.

The ‘never Trumpers’ are going to have a hard time claiming to be conservatives going forward as they help the party that voted to legalize infanticide.
