Not one...single...GOP official DEFENDED Trump.  Not a single one.

Oh for sure, they bashed Cohen.  Called him a liar. Made it seem like he was out for a buck.  But they never ever said 'Donald trump is NOT the man you are saying he is!"  And they didn't because they know cohen is telling the truth.

Nor did they question the actual accusations Cohen was making. Again because they know its all true.

The worst is yet to come.  Because when the shit hits the fan the GOP will be all that stands between people who know and recognize that our nation is somehow crafting a bigoted, dictator before our eyes...and those who want this dictator running the damn show.

Worst nightmare?  The Mueller report confirms our worst fears.  Trump DID willingly conspire to allow Putin to interfere with the election in return for easing sanctions and letting him off the hook for money he owes the oligarchs.  And the GOP does NOTHING and continues to run interference for him in spite of the report...and possibly encourage their constituents to take action.

This is what Cohen warned us about in his closing statement.  There is the possibility that Trump will not relinquish power when its time.  And his supporters will strike out to defend against what they see as a coup.

Plenty of ugly in our future if we aren't careful.

I might be a little bias (as someone from the Bronx) but Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's questioning of Cohen was very effective bringing up Trump's tax returns, whether or not he had ever inflated or deflated assets, and tax-fraud allegations.

-C!

Then again, this whole thing is like everybody involved being Fredo from The Godfather.

This is simply disgusting...BUT predictable of Trump...

"He tells me that he didn't know about it and I will take him at his word," Trump said during a news conference, also claiming Kim "felt very badly. But he knew the case very well, but he knew it later."

-C!

In his feeble mind, buttering up to someone is the way to get what you want from them.  It’s why he is surrounded by sycophants and yes men.  It’s why he sucks up to the likes of Kim Jong Un, Putin, MBS and the rest of the Legion Of Doom....which he wants to be a part of so badly.
