This smells like a Republican dirty trick to discredit Chris Cuomo. It is too much of a

coincidence with Cohen’s book coming out, and since Carlson s involved this doesn’t pass the snell test

They are are all alleging it is Chris Cuomo on a compromised recording

1. Another example of how Trump has a dossier on most of the media as well as political officeholders and celebrities. And he won't hesitate to use them to his advantage.

2. Taking down Chris Cuomo has the potential to vicariously put NYS Gov. Andrew Cuomo in a spotlight where he'll either have to defend his brother or say nothing in response.

3. Chris Cuomo won't be fired.

What did Cuomo say that’s incriminating?

He didn’t sexually assault anyone?

The media isn’t your friend?

Is that about it?



Oh and tucker says Trump’s long time friend and attorney is a sleazeball. Birds of a feather.
