Cohen testimony was ‘bombshell that didn’t explode’: Marc Thiessen
Fox News ^ | February 28 2019 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen's highly anticipated public appearance before a House panel didn’t live up to the hype, Washington Post columnist Marc Thiessen argued Wednesday.

For more than seven hours earlier in the day, Cohen testified on Capitol Hill and expressed shame for his association President Donald Trump, whom he alleged is a “racist,” “conman,” and “a cheat.”

Hurt also pointed out that Cohen isn’t going to jail for violating campaign finance laws but for “defrauding on his taxes.” --- Something the media conveniently leaves out!

I sincerely hope NO FReeper lost one second of sleep over this nonsense.

Didn’t watch, don’t care.

I have underestimated Trump FAR too often in the past and stopped about a year ago.

I’ve slept much better and I’ve saved much heartburn.

it’s actually enjoyable watching deep state/msm come up empty time after time after time after time.

Starring Michel Cohen

An indie short movie of his sad face as reality sets in

Yeah, all Cohen did was recite Democrat talking points, which we’ve all heard ad nauseum for more than three years.

Thinking out loud . . . .

Did it serve the President more or less being in Hanoi rather in DC while Cohen testified?

Of course the Democrats undermined the President with kabuki theatre while the President on foreign soil in a critical summit. However . . . consider

Confirmed dates of the summit came with short notice
An agreement was NOT in place. Highly unusual.
Given the opportunity, democrats would pull this stunt

Team Trump played the summit with "low expectations" (no-lose situation plus major agreement with Boeing and Vietnam signed(big plus))

Allowing the democrats the opportunity to do this exposes them, but with POTUS away, his damage is minimized????

According to Lynne Patton, a close associate M Cohen, turned to prevent his wife from going to jail on the taxi medallion charges. It is very sad to see the perversion of justice by agents of the Government in our once proud Nation.

The real story is the moves we made with Vietnam, that flew under the radar.

".... Cohen....expressed shame for his association President Donald Trump...."

This, from a sleazy, slime ball attorney who made a lot of money being "associated" with Trump. Ingrate.

In reality, it should be Trump who is ashamed for associating himself with this lowlife rat.

Why the democRATS thought it a good idea to have a convicted liar testify, is baffling to sane people. But then I remind myself, they're democRATS.

They won't be able to rely on the veracity of anything he says in the hearing given the fact that....well....he's a liar. Guilty of lying in a Senate Committee hearing no less. The House democRATS hatred outweighs their judgment.

I see the mobster Gambino's son says Cohen will get "whacked" in prison. Inmates love Trump but they hate rats and snitches.

He's lucky he's not testifying against Hillary or he'd be "whacked" before he went to prison.

Nobody likes a snitch, except the democRATS in the House apparently.

Unfortunately, when you are in the kind of business Trump has been in, you have to choice but to sometimes associate with sleazy lawyers and business-types. It is what it is.

My YouTube news feed highlighted not a single story about Hanoi or the summit with Kim. EVERY STORY was about this Cohen farce!

Perhaps that is why Trump pulled out. He knew he wouldn't even get recognition for it, so why bother. He can always do it again another time.

That’s funny. Many moles for Trump to whack....

Pelosi, schummer, Cummins, schiff, Maxine, daNang Dick, and Cohen.

Could make for a fun game or video. But I would call it, “Whack-A-Rat”.

That 3d chess is above my pay grade. If Trump did as you say, I think it good move to be in Vietnam.

I understand very well what Trump had to deal with in NYC to be a successful real estate developer.

I was only contrasting what Cohen said versus the reality Trump has had to deal with.

Like you say, it is what it is.
