Jason Chaffetz: Michael Cohen says he’s a fool – No one can argue with that
Fox News ^ | February 28 2019 | Jason Chaffetz

Asked by Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., how he sees himself, President Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen responded Wednesday that he sees himself as “a fool.” At least we know he told the truth in answering that question.

In a pointless hearing in which Cohen testified before the House Oversight and Reform Committee making multiple unproven accusations against President Trump, the public got to see what Special Counsel Robert Mueller apparently saw: no evidence of Trump campaign collusion with Russia to win the 2016 presidential election.

What we all saw instead was a fool.

Even as Cohen is proven to he a liar, lefties will work his bogus claims into the narrative.

Cohen is also a greedy fool in desperate need of money. Find out who is paying Lanny Davis and just who and how Cohen has been paid. The money trail will tell all.

What’s wrong with American law schools and law school faculty such that these institutions have become focused on weasel training instead of law?

The democrats have a nasty habit of doing things without considering the long term effects of their actions. Attorney-client privilege just went out the window when Cohen entered that room yesterday, but the cheering democrats were too busy salivating to notice.

Yes, but the only people who will believe that narrative will be the liberal faithful - who aren't open to any other line of thought anyway.

Cohen is using his relationship with President Trump as if that was his only tie in life.

The guy was a businessman who happens to be a lawyer....a corporate attorney, a paper shuffler.

The Left never considers long term effects because they never have to - Venezuela anyone.

Heck, they are not even called out when they harbor illegal aliens that go on to rape children.

I'd like to know how the bar association will process & deal with this (Cohen) mess. Or will they even care at all since you need lawyers because there are lawyers.

Michael Cohen says he’s a fool – No one can argue with that>>>

Well he said it under oath, so the self declaration that he is a fool is evidence of the fact itself.

That puts the weight to be given to Cohen’s testimony at approximately zero.

The interesting part of the hearing was how Jew hater Talib, the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR supporter,was put in her place for race mongering. I look forward to seeing her run out on a rail.

What’s wrong with American law schools ....?

I think it began back in the late 70’s. When I was in college. professors began to aggressively recruit students to attend law school. Prior to that, the school of law was very difficult to enter and had stringent entry requirements. Their motives changed from protecting the Constitution and citizen rights to making a lot of money. Unfortunately, our nations judges are selected from this swampy pool of people.

Cohen went to Thomas Cooley Law School. It is well known in legal circles as the school attended by people who can’t get admitted anywhere else. Something like 85% of applicants are admitted. They have had big problems with accreditation. There is little doubt that Cohen is not the brightest bulb on the tree. The bigger question is why Trump would include such a low-life in his circle. My guess is that it’s because Cohen would do whatever we was asked to do in order to play with the big boys.

“Cohen went to Thomas Cooley Law School.”

Yes, but Lanny Davis, the weasel who is representing him, received his JD from Yale, and another weasel - Adam Schiff, received his JD from Harvard.
