John Dean: Hush money case against Trump ‘very powerful’
The Hill ^ | 05/13/2024 | SARAH FORTINSKY

Posted on 05/13/2024 9:18:10 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

John Dean, former President Nixon’s White House counsel, said in an interview Saturday that the New York hush money criminal trial against former President Trump is “very powerful” ahead of highly anticipated testimony this week from Trump’s ex-fixer Michael Cohen.

Dean said in a CNN interview that he has read the transcripts from the trial and thinks the prosecution has laid out a compelling case that can stand alone, independent from Cohen’s testimony.

“It’s a very powerful case the government has put on in New York,” he said. “They have really filled in so many of the blanks, and they have built such a structure that Michael Cohen can come in and testify.”

“And he’s largely corroborated already, with either other witnesses … who don’t necessarily have an axe to grind, as well as documents,” Dean continued. “So they have laid a real foundation for this coming week.”

I spent 3 days of my vacation sitting in my motel room watching Dean testify.

SMARMY is the word for him.

When will John Dean finally admit to the real reason for the Watergate break-in?

He’s still trying to remain relevant, even though his only relevancy was to help the Democrats take down a patriotic president. we need to instill shame into this man who is so deserving of that shame.

Has anyone pointed out yet that Watergate (Deep Throat) was a Deep State takedown of a president?

Seems the false spin it was due to dedicated reporters uncovering the story still is prevelant.

One time I really want someone to “hush” is when that freak opens his big mouth.

He’s more of a dweeb dipstick than ever. I remember his porcelain wife, Maureen. I wonder what became of her.

Can you please stop re-posting what every irrelevant retard has to say? You seem determined to turn FR into a fake news tabloid.

If we wanted to hear from these losers we would watch CNN and MSNBC - can’t FR be a place where we come for truth and sanity?

Notice we all felt like Carnac the Magnificent in predicting where the Dean quotes were from....CNN.
.
CNN is on a nonstop propaganda campaign against Trump, more than ever.

This from the guy who orchestrated the Watergate break in to steal the log book showing that his wife was one of the call girls pimped from that location.
