    Yeah I'll hang my MAGA hat on the public release of wikileaks Tweet, and their apparent endorsement of Sanders.

    I've also got 3 years of the FBI, DoJ, and the Obama administration officials trying their best to take him down and failing.

    I like my odds.

    Do I care who he had sex with? No.

    Do I care if he wanted to build a Trump tower in Moscow? No.

    What else you got?

    Oh I see.

    You think it's illegal for one elected official to do NDA's with his own money, but you don't see the illegality of hundreds of elected officials using taxpayer money for NDA's.

    ...do you think federal prosecutors request leniency because he makes them happy?

    No, I'm really not. You see, in former times we expected our Congress to do its work on behalf of the American People. Taxes, health care, etc. The whole shabang. I regret that the House has now been reduced even further under Democratic leadership. We have ZERO representation.

    I'm saying that in the mold of the English rebellions: We have NO representation at all in Capitol Hill, we are being taxed for them to play detective, instead of legislate.

    I can wait a little longer.
    Dirty Donnie is sludge and the Republicans, with all 3 branches of government under their control, did absolutely nothing useful. In fact, they did harm and are desperately hanging on to his coat tails in their absurd lust for power.

    My position is that he lacks zero credibility, many of the things he's talking about either cannot be verified or would require other persons who cannot be required to testify to testify and open the door to unending attacks on numerous issues, and he has his literal ass in the game riding on it all. This is, as stated, the most partisan charged proceeding since the Johnson impeachments. All five of them. The person controlling his leniency is part of the faction which needs his testimony to be damning (which he's doing a hamfisted job of because he's an incompetent **** weasel).
    This gives him a great incentive to lie or obscure, particularly on topics like my first sentence details where he either cannot be verified or to do so would be to eat a hook.

    Steele's material lies to the FBI should have him expedited to the US, but don't expect that to happen any time soon.

    You don't know that.

    For example, Cohen claims that Trump lent a Trump Tower condo (on the same floor as his own) to a member of the Russian mafia for free.

    This is easy to verify, as he gave the name of the company that signed the lease and Allen Weinselberg is working with Mueller.

    Which isn't a crime. People can loan their stuff to others. It on you to prove that a crime has been commited.

    So... what's left of Trump's collusion with russkies?

    Not much if there ever were any suspicions. Will Dems give up on it now?

    Well the problem is he said the meeting was July 18 or 19th, unfortunately media started reporting the Wikileaks dump of the dnc in June literally a month before. It was already public knowledge, which just happens to match roger stone’s testimony. Sorry but old roger was repeating what the media already told America.

    This was the first time for that, but if he’s done it 10 times over 40 years, it shows this is normal behavior. This was nothing unusual. His goal is always to avoid public embarrassment and protect his family.

    If it was his first time to pay hush money and it was 30 days before an election, that might be different. I don’t know.

    I’m not an attorney (I just play one on the internet).

    I give this 1.5/10 on the trolling attempt meter. Try something original.

    So you don't believe anything Cohen has to say. Got it.

    He still has no additional incentive to lie under oath today.

    Of course they get it ... they just can't bring themselves to abandon it ... they've so little left to cling to. Now the very last hope they have left is Roger Stone, provided Trump denied the alleged call from Stone when he answered Mueller's questionaire ... very doubtful.

    He was so concerned his wife would find out, that he waited years, until he was a candidate, to decide he wanted it to be a secret
