I wonder if mueller would try to use this to go after Trump Jr. If he said under oath that Trump Sr. did not know about it, but cohen says he did. Mueller could try for perjury. It’s muellers style to go after the family of his targets. I hope that attorney/client privilege make this inadmissible in court.

These are just opinion hit pieces.

The President says release them. What he will do is teach the libtards about citizenship.

I don’t care what Cohen has and neither does he. The President is forcing the Deep State to admit THEY broke the law.

They will NOT go there.

Mueller was looking for Money Laundering.

All this other crap has no bearing on anything.

This is just too much. You would think Herr Mueller and his brown shorts would have obtained these tapes after their raid on Cohens office,etc. So if an active investigation is in progress why would this Cohen guy leak a tape or tapes to the Clinton News Network....Unless that was part of the plan to give him immunity..I do not trust the Feds at all.

“Getting dirt on your opponent is illegal? Clinton paid $12 million for dirt and it was from the Russians.

Wrap it Muelley”

Could this please be Trump’s response tweet?

The danger is if Cohen can prove it, Mueller will bring perjury charges against anyone that testified that the President didn’t know of the meeting in advance.

Drip. Drip. Mueller’s illegal raid of The Rat’s files clearly turned up HIS illegal activities. Threatened with massive jail time, he agreed to DRIP DRIP DRIP to help Mueller’s goal: a Democrat takeover in the midterms.

If Trump was colluding with the Russians, why was such a meeting necessary?

"Again, where’s the crime?"

Exactly. And of course Cohen's claim is one of those things he happens not to have a recording of.

Who’s to say that anyone who was deposed by Mueller knew that DJT knew of the meeting (if in fact he did). Also, this is exhibit A why DJT shouldn’t allow himself to be interviewed by Mueller.

So Trump team knew in advance about a meeting they attended before they attended the meeting. Yup. That’s big stuff! You da man Bob!

I can see it after the mid-terms and Rosenweasel and Mueller are fired.

Cohen: Hey Donald old buddy. I’ve been with you all along. Just ignore that I taped all our phone conversations.

However if Cohen can’t prove it....I doubt Mueller would make a move since this article states that Cohen is looking for relief for his own legal troubles if he tells Mueller this....as in “I can lie about Trump and Trump Jr if he said his father didn’t know so I can get off the hook”
