Is this Tom Arnold stuff helping or hurting "the cause"?

[Ferrets are Cool]

Opinions? And just threw out the P word.

1. Hurting

[Me.]

2. Hurting

doesn't really say anything, lots of fast double talk, a scammer with a tv show to promo.

[hlthe2b]

3. I don't think it helps, but not really sure it hurts.. He's clearly loopy...

[itsrobert]

4. Hurting. He's promoting his stupid TV show.

Searching for the Trump Tapes? Much like those shows that are searching for Viking Settlements, lost or hidden treasures, or gold. They end up making a production out of finding almost nothing.

[SHRED]

5. He's an ass

Never liked him.

[Snackshack]

6. I don't know yet...

I am inclined to go with hurting but I could be wrong. I have some faith that Avenatti is a smart lawyer and he seems to think it is a good thing based on the interview he gave on Ari Melbers show, so we will see.

I do think Tom Arnold should stay away from doing interviews about this subject because he does not interview well.

7. He sounds like he's on drugs.

[Loryn]

8. Hurting.

This reminds me of Geraldo with Al Capone's vault. Is it a big nothing, or ........

[Grassy Knoll]

9. He's A Loon...

[Ferrets are Cool]

10. I think I agree with most of you...he is promoting a show

nothing more. I think this hurts.

[Wounded Bear]

20. I'm going with hurting...

he's playing the publicity hound to pimp his show on Vice.

11. Can't be helping Cohen's reputation any.

As for if it's good or bad overall - hard to say.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. He sounds like a crackpot to me.

14. Cohen says he had a chance public encounter with Arnold

in a hotel lobby where Arnold asked him to pose for a selfie. According to Cohen's tweet they discussed nothing, not Trump, no TV show.

Sorry, I don't know how to link to his tweet.

[oswaldactedalone]

15. Off to a bad start

probably won't get better.

[Trek4Truth]

16. Well if Cohen did have tapes and say he needed some money for some odd reason and someone

was willing to pay I could see this happening.

[mackdaddy]

17. He did very well on Lawrence O'Donnell tonight. Surprisingly on-topic and less Manic.

He said he was working with Cohen at length. Lawrence says he will tweet the details that came up in the interview.

Tom Arnold just seemed a little crazy. I hope he has the tapes he says he has for his show.

[mchill]

18. I agree

Lawrence saw that Poppy Harlow interview and adjusted well. Toward the end, Lawrence got a bit of his Poppy on, but all and all he got much more info out of Arnold. “Cohen is talking to the good guys.”

22. Puerto Rico is "broken" 100 days after hurricane Maria and trump is no help, locals say

“He has failed the moral imperative that any leader of the free world should hold at the highest level,” San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz said about the recovery efforts.

“All he needs to do is simple: do his job. I think the world has seen a commander in chief unable to command,” she said.

Cruz added that she and her fellow Puerto Ricans have been “fighting every day” to move past the wreckage of the storm. But the messes that remain on the island have stalled many major relief efforts, and even the attempted recovery continues to bring new and overwhelming challenges.

[lunatica]

23. I just tuned him out

He’s full of shit. Wants to be coy

[Mc Mike]

24. He's chaff, anti-guided missile chaff. Anti-radar chaff. So's Vice.

So's Donny Deutsch. So's Sam Nunberg.

Distracting and spinning from Cohen and tRump's little problem.

[demmiblue]

25. Hurting n/t

[Mike Nelson]

26. Not sure...

… he's getting attention for his upcoming show. He certainly knows how to get attention!

[dameatball]

27. If Arnold did have tapes harmful to Trump and released them, would that have any affect on

Mueller's ability to use that same information?
Even if not, I am not comfortable with Tom Arnold even getting involved with something like this. Oddly enough, he is starting to remind me of Roger Stone in a way. Annoyingly seeking the limelight..

[Golden Raisin]

28. Hurting.

o Fourth-rate, washed-up, has-been comedian.
o Roseanne Barr's ex (speaks volumes)
o Publicity hound.
o Loudmouth, frequently veering into incoherent/vulgar territory.
o Fails the "put up or shut up" test. If you've got tapes, evidence, etc., produce them publicly now.

[Downtown Hound]

29. He's an attention starved moron looking for headlines and always has been

I mean, he married Roseanne for God's sake. At the end of the day, he's not significant enough to do either. Just ignore him. He doesn't matter.
