The great irony is that if Trump has fessed up originally then most of this stuff could have been defused. But instead he lied, had Cohen lie, seems to have admitted to possible crimes regarding how the repayment was handled via Rudy, got his lawyer raided, and probably is recorded talking about the destruction of evidence or evidence that was already destroyed.

Committing a bunch of crimes to cover up something that, while embarrassing, isn't a crime would be the Trumpest thing ever.

That's some yuuge stable geniusing.

This just in; apparently Cohen was under wiretap. Supposedly the approval came in before the raid on his properties.

Can you imagine the type of evidence and reasoning you would need to get a wiretap approval for a sitting presidents lawyer?


Winning!

Giuliani fawns over Trump, gets treated like dirt and kicked to the curb. Trump invites him back in and… payback time.

What the hell is going on. After the Fox interview I'm thinking Trumps just wants to get the thing over with and is letting the truth out with the court jester.

It will also be interesting to see how the payments were structured. If they were below $10,000 that would avoid the requirement of reporting them. Unfortunately for Trump, deliberately making payments to avoid reporting requirements is a serious felony in its own right.

That concept is limited to actual cash deposits into banks, isn't it?

It was so comical, or rather sad, that it almost seems that was the intent. I think that Rudy just screwed up what was supposed to be a limited admission.

Holy shit what a fucking clown show this idiot is.
Well it's obvious Trump hasn't come close to coming clean with his own lawyers. How to you work for a client that won't even tell you the truth. If they had any scruples they would quit. Oh, yea, that's already happening.

On one hand, how could Melania not know about it. This is Trump we're talking about here.

On the other hand, Trump is probably stupid enough to think that Melania didn't know about it, or that she would believe his denials.

Yup, swings and roundabouts!

I doubt that he gives a damn one way or the other. She's simply hired help to him.

This really intrigues me. Getting a search warrant against any attorney is tough, a wiretap is even harder but I can't imagine how hard it was to get both against the President's personal attorney. I've never seen anything that gives even any reasonable speculation what the potential charges against Cohen are, but I can guarantee you they are serious, big-time charges-not some election law failure to disclose type thing.

When the public knows what those charges are the sh*t is really going to hit the fan. And the fact that the government got the wiretap and the search warrant is a pretty good indicator they have what appears to be a rock solid case.

More lies to cover busted lies to cover busted lies to ...

If Donny had two pieces of bread for breakfast and asked about it he would say he had three... Cause why tell the truth when you can lie?

It is apparently not that hard if you are working/targetting the mob.. and by Cohens own admission ... He is the russian mob.
