    At the very least Dirty Donald will wind up just like Tricky Dicky as an un-indicted co-conspirator.

    I agree. Sure, Cohen is about to plead guilty to crimes, but surely he's not really guilty because (*reasons to be presented upon request*) which is undeniable.

    they think he's only getting a deal if he rolls over on Trump. they literally can't imagine any other reason someone would take a deal.

    Are you saying President Trump hacked the DNC?

    I have no problem with the FBI and CIA investigating the hacking but there is zero connection to President Trump. There is zero justification for a Special Counsel.

    So you are saying Cohen is a moron who is pleading guilty to crimes he didn't commit so he can pay fines and forfeit assets and go to jail???And just think he was Dirty Donalds personal attorney for years...…..Dirty Donald loves hiring idiots like himself???

    Well, all I see so far are people being run thru the ringer as a result of a Special Counsel created for what? What are they investigating?

    This is beginning to show a stark contrast between the lefties, Dems, Trump haters and those who support Trump, America, justice.....

    Lefties, Dems, and Trump haters support an investigation that has no origin.

    There is absolutely zero evidence that what Cohen plead guilty to has anything to do with Trump.

    Stop making up crap.

    No. You do not.

    But feel free to elaborate on why you think that concept is remotely applicable to Cohen's guilty plea.

    They believe they got help in the distribution of the emails and other hacked data. As often as team trump met with Russians, maybe it came up

    Fruit of the poisonous tree is an affirmative defense. Burden is on the defense to prove.

    "Maybe" is enough to justify an investigation.

    I do not need access to any files. Mueller does not need to expose anything important to name a crime.
