There you have it. New talking points are out, and in fine form I might add.
Since when has violating statutes been so difficult for “law and order” types to explain? This is laughable and ridiculous. Cohen tells the truth and Trump lovers are left with this: grasping at straws and vilifying those who serve our country.
I’m anxious to see how this is justified. Hannity goes on to gripe that this investigation went too far afield from Russian collusion, this painting Cohen as a victim. Dude. He committed crimes! Are we now to believe that anyone doing anything illegal in Trump’s orbit should get a pass merely on the basis of their association with him?
I listened to the first few minutes of it. He kept saying “No Russian collusion” as if that was all this was about. And he admitted the campaign violations but was sure to add the word “minor” before each one and then say “others have done worse.” Well, “others” aren’t the President and others didn’t make those payments to keep the names of women he had sex with out of the papers.
Truly. It doesn’t matter who one knows or from what party they hail, if they commit crimes, they should face the consequences.
I don’t get the sense Trump’s faithful think that though. At his rally today, at the mention of Hillary, shouts of “lock her up!” were heard. Oh, the irony and the stupidity.
