Nope. I eat it a bit at a time. Kind of like Trump does, with his little hands.

This isn't about Obama, it's about Cohen. I swear that "you guys" mention Obama, Hillary, etc. so often on these boards, I almost believe that you really want to summon them. But anyways, I'll just leave this here...
He did, however, implicate Trump in two felonies while not making a deal. I'd love to see what he could do if he decided to cooperate...
Cohen really is cooperating. Avenatti was on TV explaining it today. Avenatti knows a lot. He said sometimes the agreement for the plea deal is to say they aren't cooperating, because the parties agreed to keep that statement OUT of the plea deal. It doesn't mean they aren't cooperating though. It just means it's not part of the written plea deal.
Avenatti also said another reason it's left out of the plea deal is when there is a co-defendant that Cohen would snitch about(not his exact words). And that sometimes it's best to NOT mention the snitch deal because of the outstanding issues related to the co-defendant(such as Trump).
Watch for Avenatti to explain it again today on TV. He makes it clear that Cohen has flipped on Trump.

YAAAY, an ADMITTED FELON(Cohen)….. and now also a CONVICTED FELON(Manafort),the first two of the Trump MOB Family going to Prison!
Manafort convicted on 8 counts; mistrial declared on 10 others
A jury has found former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort guilty after a three-week trial on tax and bank fraud charges — a major if not complete victory for special counsel Robert S. Mueller III as he continues to investigate the president’s associates. The jury convicted Manafort on eight of the 18 counts against him. The jury said it was deadlocked on the other 10. U.S. District Court Judge T.S. Ellis declared a mistrial on those other charges. Manafort was convicted on five counts of filing false tax returns, one count of not filing a required IRS form, and two bank fraud counts. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politi...Dny?li=BBnb7Kz
And this Trump Mobster still has another trial to face!
Whitewater does not compare to this. To posture like it does in disingenuous. Whitewater was an issue that was specific to probable business crimes committed by the Clintons. There was evidence.
Whereas this began on no evidence specific to Trump, and was largely supported by Kremlin sourced "oppo" fictitious narratives bought and paid for by the DNC and targeting Trump (which is effective collusion on the part of the DNC, that wholly overshadows an a Trump camp meeting that led to nothing).
So, on one had you have an investigation that was specific to Clinton, based on evidence, and thus not a partisan witch hunt. On the other, you have an investigation that was not specific to Trump but is obviously targeting Trump (aka: a partisan witch hunt).
Moreover, the gravity of both issues, as measured by the possible effects on our democracy, is not in the same ballpark.
With that fact in mind, that this special investigation looks to be much more rootless, partisan, and thus corrupt makes the two situations not comparable in any way.
Sorry, you’re oblivious to reality. Mueller has the authority to conduct the investigation and prosecute crimes under covered as a result of the investigation.
If that bothers you, move to a more authoritarian country, assuming of course, you’re not already in one.
The Bible thumpers are pretty much running this country right now even under Trump. Pence will be pretty much Trump on policy, but a "boring" behind-the-scenes President who has the dignity to hold the office (even though I strongly disagree with him) which is preferable to what we have now.
Agree. Pence is pushing the same policies through now in the background as VP as he would as POTUS. At least with him we would get rid of this dumpster fire joke of a loser.
Who on Obama’s team got convicted of a federal crime? Please enlighten me. I know you’d like to wish Trump’s corruption away but got news for ya. It doesn’t work that way. Just admit that you support a criminal. Say it with me. Trump is a clumsy criminal thug!!!
That's the team that gets a pass by filling appointments with people who cover for the crooks in their party.
We know that by the leadership that has been demoted, fired, criminal referral, etc...………………
Really?!? Because I know one of them personally. In fact, I know their parents as well.
I know for a fact that it is extremely unlikely that they are a fan of Trump or a Trump voter.
It's all a show, guy. Fox news is a neocon gatekeeping con-show. Note their election season behavior. Even now, they have obvious anti-Trump people on air (and who knows how many who hide it) whereas CNN has no regular Trump proponents on air. That should tell you a lot. The anti-Trumpers seep out through the cracks under the tent that is struggling to keep a disingenuous media circus going. Some of them show, and many do not.
Most of these media people, across all organizations, come from similar wealthy communities, went to the same prep schools, and went to the same Universities. They were in the same greek organizations, have the same personal political interests, and they all disperse into the same lawfirms, financial organizations, and media conglomerates.
There is no objective news that features journalists that work to show all sides of an issue. There is only the agenda and gatekeeping against those who would oppose it, which is Fox's task (and the National Review's, and the Weekly Standard's, etc).
It’s a show alright, it’s called a clown show! Gutfield? Watters? Don Jr’s GF? You can’t be serious. Maybe Perino and that’s a huge maybe. CNN has plenty of Trump apologists on but you’d have to watch it to know that.
