Boxer explained that she thinks the accusations against Trump in books like Cohens and former FBI investigator Peter Strzok dont need former Vice President Joe Biden or his campaign to push the stories into the news cycle.
Theyll have an impact with or without the Biden campaign, said Boxer, noting that she served with five presidents from both parties.My take is there is never anything like that. Everybody with a pulse knows these accusations are true. First, they have been checked with many different outlets, news outlets. They are true. We also know what he said about John McCain, a senator, a war hero. He said he wasnt a war hero.
I think Michael Cohen may very well have some proof, Boxer continued. Because he is an attorney. And he doesnt come to us, you know, with a clean slate. But everything that he says rings true. If you have a heartbeat and a pulse, you have heard this president, it sounds like him. And it makes me sick what he apparently said about Nelson Mandela. This is a president that shuns wonderful people. Nelson Mandela. This is a president that shuns wonderful people. He embraces tyrants. And yes, I think that it will have an impact. But I just want to say, with all of this, youve got so many people dying of COVID. You dont hear this president talk about it. He is playing golf. So, you know, in some ways, well be distracted by this book and that book, and Im all for it, but look what is happening here. We are going through a terrible pandemic with no leadership.

Let it be known that there is one and he won't have to worry so much about a cup of tea or rides in a small plane.

After working for that criminal he would have made sure to cover his own ass. There was something in the news right after he was elected that his own lawyers will only come to see him (trump) in twos because they all know what a terrible liar he is. They have to document everything he says.
