However, as you pointed out, if Trump is on tape discussing illegal activity, or if Cohen has financial records (that can and will be verified by Congress or federal investigators), e-mails, text messages, etc that can be verified, Trump or his City-Data supporters can't lie or "fake news" their way out of it. Hard evidence cannot be disproven.

Michael Cohen might end up being an America hero after all, even though he's a scumbag.
If Cohen was paid to lie or instructed to lie (while being paid) by the president and can prove it--he has a pretty good reason there. Also grounds for impeachment.

I think MiniMe should be worried also. He can hide behind a beard, but he can't hide from having lied under oath.

I imagine this was all show from the beginning. Cohen was never going to testify. The three ring circus in Washington that is the TRUMP vs. DEMOCRAT show is just ridiculous. Meanwhile our debt keeps getting bigger and the issues facing our country are not getting solved. And most are too busy taking sides to realize they are being played. And the rest of Americans have given up and don't even care.

We need to scrap this two party system.

Despite the thread name, Cohen IS going to testify before Congress for three days, beginning tomorrow.

Better start formulating your excuses and deflections....

What are you talking about? Cohen is testifying before the Senate Panel right now. He will testify tomorrow and Thursday, too. Tomorrow’s testimony will be public, so it’s going to be a busy news day.

How funny is that?! Haha.

He was so quick to to dismiss Cohen, apparently not knowing that this thread is old and was bumped recently due to Cohen's testimony today through Thursday.

Folks might wanna have their facts in order before going off an a tangent.

Sarah Huckabee-Sanders is already on the attack, doing all she can. In a statement, Sanders said that Michael Cohen cannot be trusted during his testimony because he is a liar.



So a question for Sarah Huckabee-Sanders -- what does it say about President Trump who employed this liar for nearly 20 years as his personal lawyer!?

The OP in this thread was a month ago. Cohen is testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee as we speak, in a closed-door session. And, from all accounts, he is packing documentation to back up his testimony.

Cohen knows the inner workings of all of Trump's business better than Trump, and, unlike Trump he records everything and uses computers. Either he has been instructed by DOJ and SDNY to stick to topics already known to the public, or he is going to blow the roof off the White before he gets through Thursday.

Cohen deserves a pardon if he can hasten the removal and/or imprisonment of the despicable traitor and criminal that is Trump.

Sorry libs. There will be no smoking gun, just more political BS. If there was an actual smoking gun of illegality, Cohen would've turned it over to the US attorney (or even perhaps to a state prosecutor depending on the facts . . . presumably the NY prosecutor).
