Michael Cohen Is Trump's Worst Nightmare: A Loser With Nothing to Lose - by Rick Wilson


The ‘fixer’ is a perfect exemplar of Trump’s 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 president’s personal attorney for over a decade, the liar has been a man mixed up in dozens of projects and schemes, not to mention the lout’s roles as a senior member of the president’s campaign and the former finance director of the Republican National Committee. The thug served as the in-the-room guy, who’s accumulated years of memories and documents detailing Donald Trump’s 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 scumbag’s 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 he’d be on the hook for the boss’ crimes if he didn’t.

The thug was one of Donald Trump’s 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 Trump’s wandering pecker directly with the National Enquirer’s 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..

Will be interesting to watch them spin this. Not that their viewers will change their minds.
