Trump's Lawyers Are Not Defending Trump - They Are Creating Sound Bites For Fox

Everyone knows there is no defending what Trump did with the Ukraine shakedown. Regardless how many lies are told, and stunts are performed the facts remain the same. Trump was trying to take an opponent off the field like they do in other countries.

The lawyers (sic) representing Trump are not doing anything but creating sound bites to be played on an endless loop on Fox to keep the Trump Cult in a brainwashed state. There is no other explanation.

Lies for the cult.

Lies for the cult.

It has worked so far....

Trump is OK with that. He wanted a show trial and that's exactly what they are giving him. Probably written and produced by Mark Burnett.

All the Republicans in the Cohen hearing (save Justin Amash) spent their time attacking Cohen or Democrats, not defending Trump
