Yep. Trump is the only one that can save us
I think our country did quite well without dear leader and will be better off without crooked Don at the helm. Lock him up!

Did Cohen know what he was doing was illegal, did Trump?

trump claiimed in 2012 to have talked to lawyers about the specifics of john edwards case, contradicting any claim that he was unaware of the legalities:

Obama is 6"1". When they were walking side by side at the inauguration, both can be seen as being the same height. Trump's official height is 6'2", but at his age, 72, he has probably shrunk an inch due to his weight. Losing an inch or more at that age is very common.

If he was 6'3", his sons, who are both taller than he, would have to be over 6'4", and neither of them are that tall. Neither are as fat as their father.
You know, as you get older, you shrink some.

So this dirt bag gets to go to the prison of his choice?...a Jewish-only prison?


What the?...


Who in the heck gets that sort of pampered treatment?

Seriously that is wrong on so many levels.

It’s only a 90-minute drive for visitors from the city, and it has boccie courts, horseshoe pits and enough room to play soccer.

Altman, who has spent time in six prisons since his 1989 conviction for running an interstate prostitution ring, says convicts could stay up until 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights watching HBO, Showtime and Cinemax.


Personally, they should have sent him to a prison like HBO's "OZ". Can you imagine Vern Schillinger getting his hands on Cohen?
Its well known as a Jewish prison catering to white collar Jewish criminals from NY.

All federal prisons have to provide kosher food to Jewish inmates, and there is no guarantee that Cohen will go there, the Judge recommended Otisville for Bernie Madoff but instead he was sent to FCI Butner in North Carolina.

Whatever...…...doesn't change the fact Otisville is known as the Jewish Fed prison and that's why Cohen requested he be sent there.

It's beyond ridiculous. Shouldn't even be given kosher food if you ask me. Sick.

White collar criminals are pure evil. Worse than the guy who is walking out of a grocery store with an unpaid cart to feed his family by a thousand times.

Why are they evil? They usually are just guilty of financial crimes. Cohen is guilty of perjury and tax evasion. How is that pure evil? Personally, I think prison for perjury and tax evasion is barbaric. He should have gotten a fine instead.

You're asking me why a white collar criminal who takes hundreds of thousands or even millions or billions of dollars is evil?



I would say in simple terms: greed is evil - love/lust of wealth that you can't spend in a million years is evil.



So without a shadow of a doubt, white collar criminals are among the most heinous there are, in my opinion.
