How many new investigations will be started because of what Cohen knows? Yikes!

Cohen was Trumps right hand man for at least ten years. That means he was working with Trump during and after the 2008 real estate collapse. What did they do after the collapse? Cohen was like a family member. He knows everything. How many crimes, dirty deals does he know about?

Trump did not know Cohen recorded phone calls. Cohen kept records of everything. If I remember correctly the FBI took around 15 cell phones from Cohen. They took his computers. All his files.

It has been reported Cohen has talked to Mueller for 70 hours. Dam! Thats a lot of talking and they are not talking about the weather.

When Trump leaves office and returns to New York, there will be prosecutors from the southern district waiting for him with indictments.

Trump is fucked.

There are many ways the Justice System, at any level, can deal with scoundrels. Few will get a free pass out of Trumplandia. The cost getting out...being out of work by firing or fear of stain and being shunned with a toxic WH Resume entry...and the lawyers ...most can't afford at, what $600 an hour give or take?

Many will learn what it's like to be poor and guilty, or even suspect, in America. It ain't pretty.

Can't miss a day of news, or the whole story changes on you. Obviously Trump can't get rid of him now, even if he wanted to. I think maybe the folks in the Justice Department are, um, tutoring him, a bit. These aren't losers or grifters or idiots he's having to deal with...and depend on to "hand over all they know and have". No, don't think so.

. . . by a lot of different parties and interests.

Also, guess that whittaker doesn't want to go back to Iowa - or prison.
