The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: No smocking guns. - Page 4668 - Politics and Economics

Apparently, NY AG is really going after the Trump Foundation. They subpoenad Cohen like two days ago and apparently he voluntarily called them up and agreed to an interview without counsel. (Source: Maddow. Find the clip if you can, it's interesting.)

I heard it, and it's the link that really puts the Trump kids in legal jeopardy imo. They all sit on the board of that foundation and it's rotten to the core.

I said before we're in for some total Shakespeare stuff incoming here. The children are going to have to turn on the father to save their own hides. Get the popcorn ready.

He could have been a legend if he chided America during his inauguration address for allowing him to get elected and that he ran as a way to show that the American democratic process is so ****ty that he was able to become POTUS.

Of course we'd be left with Pence which would suck but it would still be a pretty solid turn and might have actually made America great in the long run.

i doubt they'll get him out of office, but they're going to wound him in various ways

I don't know that Pence is well positioned to hold up under intense investigation. President Pelosi would be the biggest orgy of flying lawn mowers of all time.

Then again, NASCAR has been circling the drain for years now, attendance and ratings are both down bigly and people (even some die-hards) are openly speculating that it doesn't have a future. Perhaps appealing to liberals is their last best hope

Well, who among us doesn't like Nascar???

[fake news intensifying]

This whole week seems like a criminal roll-up montage, complete with Dirty Don decrying flippers. Kudos to the writers.

I have to assume there will at least be a brief lull before events progress too far. Real life, and especially law, doesn't work this quickly.

I don't think he's actually "having a lot of fun" right now.

I wish he was always hooked up to a lie detector when he talked with the readout showing live.

If Weisselberg fully cooperates, the two potential outcomes are the whole family goes down (maybe Tiffany is ok) or the GOP finally openly acknowledges that they're the party of white-collar crime. That guy seems to know too much for there to be any in between.

I guess the "breaking" might be additional sources.

I've seen Dworkin referred to as a "grifter" here and elsewhere but I've not seen any evidence of actual grifting so idk. I believe Cooper works for Dworkin. I've seen Dworkin on MSNBC before fwiw, but only on weekends and they seem to have more fringy-types on during weekends

Passing off Cohen to SDNY was a brilliant move. Keeps Mueller arms length away from trump Co. and non Russia stuff.

Keeps a send prong.

Expect the 3rd prong (state charges) come into play to combat pardons. All those financial crimes end up in tax fraud and state state fraud charges do not have any double jeopardy type issues with federal tax fraud.

Expect to see Eric crying on TV soon.

No way man. 911 is run by the GOVERNMENT. No way is any self-respecting rightie calling them when they can get by with just their trusty AR-15, a hearty never-say-die attitude, and good old American resourcefulness.

Also, the assemblers, installers, and lobbyists to get tax credits for it.
