He’s not quite that stupid.

You’re going to have to be more specific. Who isn’t that stupid?

Lol! Too damn ironic.

Guntsu · 2018-05-23T18:09:03.231Z

If this all proves true then we are talking actual pay to play

You know this rule, right? There is always a tweet.

Whoring America to trigger the libs! Snowflake libs are triggered! Hahahahaha!

The White House schedule said only that Mr Poroshenko would “drop in” to the Oval Office while Mr Trump was having staff meetings.

That had been agreed through official channels. Mr Cohen’s fee was for getting Mr Poroshenko more than just an embarrassingly brief few minutes of small talk and a handshake, the senior official said. But negotiations continued until the early hours of the day of the visit.

Seems that if this is the case, that they negotiated the FEE up until hours before the visit, that Trump and whoever handles scheduling would have to be aware of this. Cohen would have had to convey to the president that their demands had been met and that Poroshenko should get more time.

Huge.

Wow.

So who investigates this? Do we need another special counsel or can Mueller handle this?

tnt · 2018-05-23T18:39:57.603Z

Or is it part of the case against Cohen?

If I were a betting man I’d say that Mueller already knows about this. Maybe he adds it to the obstruction of justice investigation against Trump. Also, there’s nothing that says that Mueller isn’t also going to go after Cohen in the end. This seems more his purview. Ukraine and Manafort. The separate FBI raid by the southern district of New York may just be wire/campaign fraud or who knows what. Certain things Mueller wasn’t interested in.

Silence from the Trumpers.

They’ll just go back to “collusion isn’t illegal”.

I’m betting it will be: Wait where’s Russia? This is Ukraine. Mueller fails to find Russia collusion!!!

Looks like Kim’s check to Cohen for the Summit must’ve bounced.

It’s not collusion if they pay you!

It’s not against the law if the president’s lawyer does it.

margaretms2 · 2018-05-23T19:08:43.867Z

It’s weird, because even if Trump is ■■■■■■■ with an investigation to protect his associates involvement in serious crimes like money laundering and bank fraud–that’s still reprehensible and inexcusable behavior on the part of a president.

Hmm, not a peep from trump huggers.

I know. Very surprising. Not yet sure how to try and spin this one perhaps?
