I dunno man, I think that borders on treason & must be collusion, working with a foreign adversary. Should lead to removal of office imho & definitely should not be re-elected, let alone even run.
Oh great, now Rep. Jordan is claiming this is all a Democratic/Clinton saga. HE WAS TRUMPS PERSONAL LAWYER YOU SHITFACE!!!
I don’t know about you, but I find it absolutely delicious that the same people who created the Hillary farce over and over and over again And trying to obfuscate something with lots of real and tangible evidence by calling everything a conspiracy.

Yes but a weak claim. No evidence.
Well, later on I think he said "The special counsel might have insights onto that" it was in response to a different question (I think asked by Wasserman Shultz) but I think it was about Stone/Trump communication. No followups.
Some in GOP aren't even asking questions, their just taking all their alloted time to call Cohen a liar.
Re: US Politics Thread
Listening in & out, I think everythings been let outta the bag. Pretty damining stuff imho. GOP only called Cohen a liar. I'll agree few facts & evidence, but I think where there's smoke there's fire (and Mueller might have the evidence). Also he heavily implicated the kids into knowing. The check written while Trump was President, likely a crime, it'll be tough for the GOP to defend that, even if its a fairly small crime, but he did it, and he's on record lying about it, which really becomes the worst & most controversial part about it. Not good for Sarah Huck to defend that.
Re: US Politics Thread
Ok guys this is been my theory on this for awhile now. I really wish i could talk to someone who was around during the Nixon era...I’m just wondering if he had this kind of die hard support from people that Trump is getting.
Some people have just decided they’re going down with the ship. I’m not sure what motivates them to do it though. I don’t profess to know what the outcome of any of this is....even if Trump gets a second term, there is no care given to whether or not anything he’s doing is helping or hurting anymore.
This is about digging in your heels. It’s not about making the country better or unifying it.
I’ve said all along that - ok fine - implement your conservative policies but just don’t do it with this ass clown. Policy doesn’t really matter anymore though. That’s not what this presidency is about.
This is the era of revenge.

Re: US Politics Thread
Man, if I had been a Russian truther and hyping Cohen up, I'd feel awfully embarrassed today.
1.) Denied going to Prague - Truther fantasies about the dossier and piss tape debunked
2.) Denies any knowledge/evidence of collusion - ouch
3.) Says Trump reimbursed him for paying off blackmail from his private account - ouch again
But hey, he called him a racist and a bunch of other bad names and tried to deflect he's going to jail for crimes completely unrelated to Trump. To say nothing of what Mueller said about Cohen's honesty and ownership of his crimes.
Oh yea, and:
4.) CNN says they have evidence Cohen lied under oath today by denying he wanted to work in the White House.

1. He said Roger Stone was in touch with Trump re; Russians having the DNC hacked emails. That isn't 'knowledge' of collusion?
2. He wrote a check in 2017 for hush money to a porn star he banged that he hid to win the election. Yeah, who cares, but it is a crime AND he stated on Air Force One he didn't know anything about it (also not a crime, but the optics of it are horrible)
3. Dems likely gained traction in regards to obtaining tax returns.
4. He also heavily implied the Trump family knew about alot of the Russia thing.
5. Sure, he didn't supply evidence, but Mueller might. And Cohen may have only brought up topics in which he knew Mueller had the evidence.
