The Official Michael Cohen Testimony Thread

[luthervol]

Were they from campaign accounts?

I think they were from two different accounts. Maybe reimbursed with campaign funds. Mueler of SDNY should be able to clear it up.

I'm saying that if there is strong evidence that he lied to Mueller about knowing about the email dump and having conversations with Stone about it, I would expect the House to impeach him for that.

In the senate, faced with evidence of Trump having lied to Mueller, about something so important, I think the GOP would come face to face with a very difficult choice.

The House would impeach him for jaywalking.

If there is no finding of collusion/conspiracy and all there is is lying to Mueller about when he heard about Wikileaks then I sure as hell hope he's not removed for office for that.

You got your popcorn popped yet? Anybody with an over/under on the number of crimes that Trump will be implicated in tomorrow? I'll go with 7.

President Trump's former "fixer" Michael Cohen heads to Capitol Hill for three days of testimony before Congress

 

[luthervol]

Lol he literally said he had 0 knowledge of any collusion. What mail fraud? You’re thinking of Jussie. And what tax fraud?

Tax fraud? He had speaking engagement payments made to his foundation to avoid taxes and then used that money in illegal ways.

 

[AM64]

Funny he only isn't sure what R members are asking when he doesn't like the question and their time is about up. I haven't yet heard him tell a dem member "I'm not sure what you are asking" Pure coincidence I'm sure

Like Hiliary, he got the questions ... and answers ... in advance. And you just gotta love the name of the little maggot running the show ... Schiff - so close to the very heart of who he is.

1. Hush payments are not a violation of campaign finance laws. I hate to break your heart.

Would our elections be better or worse off if candidates paying people to keep silent was a common practice?

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Do you guys like your crow grilled or sauteed?

 

[volfanhill]

The fact that checks were produced today signed by Trump and one signed by Little donnie.

Lol so you are banking on payed off the hooker? What happend to Russia?

 

[Vol737]

Wasn't that pretty much admitted in the testimony today? Got the questions ahead of time? Jordan seemed to pick up on that pretty quickly. Looked like an oops moment by Cohen and Schiff. Cohen got rattled looking for an answer.

I dont think it would make any difference. Politics are shady and crooked. Thats never going to change.

The Clintons were very successful in keeping folks quiet.

Lol everyone involved seems to say it was trumps personal funds. On top of all that, Stormie even said she was asked to remain silent way before he ran for office. The whole thing screams personal not political

The same Schiff that likes little boys?

So real quick is lying about sex, while under oath, in a sexual harrasment lawsuit impeachable? My understanding is you think no. But cutting a check is. How do you not see how stupid you sound?

 

[BreatheUT]

After the Michael Cohen testimony today, all over America the socialist, morally bankrupt, liberals men developed erectile dysfunction and the liberal women dried out. Cringeworthy.

They would suicide you in a minute.

 

[Obsessed]

Would our elections be better or worse off if candidates paying people to keep silent was a common practice?

Why was this question not asked prior to Trump?

 

[tvolsfan]

They would suicide you in a minute.

Oh look, another conspiracy theorist Trump supporter.

 

[Velo Vol]

How would you know about someone who was successfully kept quiet?

 

[Vol8188]

Are you attempting to hold people accountable for nonexistent laws retroactively? That sounds a bit dangerous

 

[C-south]

Oh look, another conspiracy theorist trump supporter.

But the clinton’s wrote a check and I’m sure that’s what it was for.

 

[luthervol]

Was Clinton impeached?

Cutting a check is impeachable only if it is impeachable.

It depends on what the money is for and from where it comes.

 

[lawgator1]

Let’s try this again: do you agree democrats lack integrity for not impeaching Clinton?

If yes, you’re consistent. If “no”, then what’s the difference?

Clinton was impeached.

 

[Hunerwadel]

Interesting theory. Do they follow that rule with all who testify before them?

No

Then what was the campaign finance crime that Cohen pleaded guilty to?
