"Are we there yet"? Can we put an end to nearly two years of daily disaster and embarrassment?

(13,849 posts)....leaked the info as if it came from Cohen, and then beat Cohen up over it. If they can damage Cohen, whatever he has to say might be discounted.

(13,849 posts)Truly insane. Eyes bulging, face contorting, making up lies on the spot. In the interview with Cuomo.

They won't escape justice, none of them.

102 days before we wreck havoc on the GOP.

(26,060 posts)This makes Cohen far less valuable as an asset to the prosecution. If EVERYTHING gets leaked and is known, he has far less leverage to make a deal. That's what rudy and donnie are trying to do - make it so cohen is so damaged that he has nothing to offer.

(22,996 posts)that what mueller found is what it seems like it is, and proves what it looks like it proves. The jury or judge really don't care about the timing or the drama: Obstruction is obstruction, regardless of when the proof came to light. I think this is more about anticipating the news cycle that would come as a shock during trial.
Leaking it to the press is not the same as swearing to testify under oath: He can hold that card until he actually is in the witness stand.
leftynyc
(26,060 posts)and he needs to do it TODAY (if he's looking to stay out of jail). Between him and the financial guy, they can bury donnie.
That's what legal beagles on TV are saying. They say "Hurry up, Cohen, and flip or you will be left out in the cold."
