How funny. Rush just played a clip from Trump's campaign appearance at a black church in 2016 where Cohen introduced him and said how disgraceful it was that the media depicted Trump as a racist. So was he lying then or did he just lie (again) to Congress when he said Trump was a racist?
Cohen was being paid to lie in 2016, because Trump couldn't handle that much work by himself.
Cohen had no incentive, financial or otherwise, to lie yesterday. In fact, there was incentive for him to tell the whole truth, because anything less could have sent him away for an additional five years.
I did love the way he fingered Donnie Diaper with the check co-signed by Allen Weisselberg. That was a stroke of genius, because it named a corroborating witness who has an immunity agreement. I'm waiting to see how well Junior does when he gets subpoenaed to take his turn in the Oversight barrel with all the Democrats tossing out questions. I'm betting they'll have him crying like a baby in under ten minutes.
name 1 thing that Cohen has done bad for Trump that is a crime? the real crimes of Cohen that he is going away for 3 years had nothing to do with Trump. It had to do everything about his personal finances and tax fraud.......try again!
If Trump wasn't President, this wouldn't be news.
It's not only what Cohen might have done at Donnie's behest, it's what Cohen knows from having been in the room when crimes were committed. He can finger all the players and recount what was said under what circumstances. That makes him terrifically dangerous for Off Brand Nixon, assuming, of course, crimes were committed or discussed in his presence. I know how the smart money will bet on this one.
those actions are alleged to have been taken on behalf of Trump.. if you don't know this i suggest you actually read the full doc, not just the few lines Fox shouts out to enrage you. It is all there. the court clearly stated Cohen acted on behalf of Trump.
edit ...If Trump were not POTUS he would already be in jail and you would be cheering to see the NY "liberal" thrown in prison...
He'll get there soon enough. I want to watch him squirm a little before they haul him away, preferably right after they handcuff his children.
Cohen ADMITS to preparing & coordinating his congressional testimony with: , The DNC , Democratic Party leadership, Chairman Cummings , Chairman Adam Schiff , "Various individuals" in the Democratic party.
you say: "Most importantly he had the opportunity to slam Trump on a variety of topics but he didn't".....because he couldn't or he would get more perjury charges and get more years. He can't say anything different than what he told Mueller and the SDNY or what they already know....if he did, he is toast.........try again...LOL
He prepared his testimony with only him and his attorneys. He had contact with SDNY, Mueller, and possibly a couple more investigative agencies to find out what topics were taboo <<for now>>. It would have been impossible for him to have testified without having prior contact with a lot of people. Go back and read the transcript of his testimony if you want the truth.
All that before he was even POTUS, and it just keeps going!
O.K., I'll give you trump has lie of the year (multiple years combined, to make lie of the year?)...but they had to go back to 2011 and add them all together to make it happen...
How far did they have to go back for obama? A single year?

They know, it is just an attempt to debase his testimony.
Trump supporters don't seem to understand that there has been a real and serious lack of meaningful congressional oversight over the last two years. They mistakenly thought Trumpism was the new normal, the new status quo..
Nancy is quickly dissuading house republicans and the executive branch of that delusion too.
Cohen is just one tiny step in a process that is going to restore order, restore manners. It will end intimidation, it will expose those who obstruct justice and the house will provide recourse should Trump attempt to shut down Mueller.
Trump does not seem to have a winning exit strategy, i mean there is always a way out, but a winning one is seeming less and less likely with each step.

Sure it is. They are a lot like the republican members of the Oversight Committee yesterday. They have nothing of substance to use for defense, so they figure they will simply attack until the unpleasant comment is deflected. Real life doesn't work like that. Either come with searchable fact to support your claim, or have it considered garbage.
The Independent had a good opinion piece about Cohen's testimony yesterday.
