// Something strange when a "lawyer"(disbarred) need a lawyer himself.//

"hey if I hadda bedda lawyer then I wouldnt have been disbarred !"

a lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client

and completely differently here we have one (commercial silk) losing a planning case-oo la la - 6 figure costs etc

[Peter Pedant]

righto!

Haha what we have here is a proven and convicted liar, telling more lies to a group of people who tell lies for a living and expecting that his lies will be more believable...…..Unbelievable I hear you say.
Cohen is done...…."stick a fork in his aris and turn him over".

With a nod to Lou Reed and Last Great American Whale.

[Peter Pedant]

oh god Togo I thought you were talking about one of the westminster MPs - ter daaah !

ITV mid evg news - my eyes are still bulging ...

[cassa333]

Try this for size and see if Cohen has legitimacy

[Peter Pedant]

well the reps were layhing into him on the usual basis

you have lied and lied - what makes you think we will believe you

I might have said: because the judge believed enough to send me to prison

[cassa333]

The judge sent him to prison because he lied. Not because he told the truth.

The hate of Trump by the Democrates isn’t called Trump Derangement for nothing.

The Dems have been caught with thier pants down telling interns they have to lie otherwise they wouldn’t get elected. Pretty much all polititians lie but if you base your political career on being on the moral high ground they you have to live there as well.

But having followed some of the policy decisions over there I can in all good consciouns say the Democrates hold the lowest moral ground and I hope never to see it again.

Cassa@20:26. A coruscating address by Jim Jordan in the video posted. The look on Cohen's mush is enough without the sound.

Cohen, Cohen, Con.

yeah but no but

he was telling the truth when he admitted lying wasnt he?
and possibly other times as well

[DTCwordfan]

simply prove it - hot, smoking, volcanic - yes, but where's the hard evidence to indict Teflon Trumpet?

[naomi24]

Krom, //To anyone with eyes, Naomi. //

Not good enough. You’re claiming to see something I'm missing. Since he took office the world has been watching him - and more. Few men have been subjected to the criticism and scrutiny that he's been subjected to so just what is it you claim you're seeing and where is your supporting evidence?

[cassa333]

Naomi, Trump derangement Syndrome doesn’t need evidence.

The left say it and it is reported so widely it is believed.

I was impressed by the Chairpersons ,Elijah Cummings , comments at the end of procedure , very moving.

[Kromovaracun]

The constant lying and backtracking (about giving to charity, about the finances of his campaign, about people 'celebrating 9/11' in New Jersey), his massive outlandish fantasist policy promises, his penchant for surrounding himself with extraordinarily corrupt people (Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, Michael Flynn, Scott Pruitt, and yes Michael Cohen - the man who was his personal lawyer and vice chair of Trump Org for 12 years who everyone is now trying to distance from Trump). Trump came into office promising to 'drain the swamp' and all he's done is build his own swamp. Then there's the evidence that Trump has used his position as President to enrich himself and his family (foreign dignitaries and lobbyists suddenly spending heaps of money at his properties since he became president, foreign governments assisting expansion of his businesses abroad, using public money on his own hotels and businesses etc etc etc). Put this together with his long history of unethical and shady business behaviour (I'm thinking here of things like the Trump University scam), and it really is not difficult to conclude that this person is an obvious conman.

[naomi24]

Krom, all of that his many detractors accuse him of - and yet despite their concerted efforts, by fair means or more often foul, to destroy him – nothing. One could be forgiven for thinking he lives a charmed life.

[ichkeria]

He’s the most powerful man in the world: not easy to “destroy”. Also different rules apply to Trump. Even his supporters (his actual supporters in the US) wouldn’t claim he’s a pillar of virtue. The shock value doesn’t apply to him.
Hasn’t been a good couple of days for him with the congressional hearing and now “No Deal”.
Most hanoying :-)
(I’m doing my best with the puns Agatha!)

ichkeria , //Even his supporters (his actual supporters in the US) wouldn’t claim he’s a pillar of virtue.//

As far as I’m aware, neither would anyone else.

[youngmafbog]

Well I am sure IF Cohen is telling the truth there will be evidence to back it up.

When that is shown then we can see how damning it is. At the moment it is just one person (a proven liar) saying something about another. Not going to get an indictment on that !
