The fixer is a perfect exemplar of Trumps world: corrupt and corrupting, venal and vicious, he is the true picture of the best people with whom Trump surrounds himself.

Wednesday morning, the nation will be riveted to must-see political TV as a liar, lout, thug, bully, scumbag, and admitted criminal takes the stand before the House Oversight Committee to testify about his former client and our liar, lout, thug, bully, scumbag, and criminal in chief, who will be tuning in from Vietnam.
As the presidents personal attorney for over a decade, the liar has been a man mixed up in dozens of projects and schemes, not to mention the louts roles as a senior member of the presidents campaign and the former finance director of the Republican National Committee. The thug served as the in-the-room guy, whos accumulated years of memories and documents detailing Donald Trumps crass and criminal actions.
After he spills his guts to Congress, that bully is going to prison because the Southern District of New York checked his arrogance and criminality hard, using just a minuscule fraction of the evidence gathered in their searches of the scumbags home, hotel, office, car, and bodily cavities to induce him to both cooperate and accept a jail term. The admitted criminal started talking because he knew hed be on the hook for the boss crimes if he didnt.
The thug was one of Donald Trumps most intimate advisers and implementers, a man trusted with the most unholy of unholies; the payouts, gag orders, and fetid details of his rotating stable of girlfriends, dalliances, hookups, and whatever the hell Trump and his pedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein had been up to. This fixer dealt with the sticky aspects of Trumps wandering pecker directly with the National Enquirers aptly-named David Pecker, and the Stormy Daniels story is about to come back into the national consciousness, bigly.
That man is Michael Cohen, and he knows where the bodies are buried. Forty years after Trump's personal Vietnam during the Studio 54 days, he's now actually there, and Michael Cohen is his Captain Willard, freaked out, but seeing the truth at last, headed upriver to kill his commander.

As in all mob cases from time immemorial, once you take out the consigliere, then you take out the accountant, and the whole house of cards tumbles down.

The Blue Wave is about to wreck their little Russian Beachouse, and that's them standing with their hands out trying to strongarm the tide.
Good luck with that, guys lol.
I'd send thoughts and prayers but we both know that won't help much..
