49. I'm tired of hearing Deutsch make excuses for Cohen

May 2018

It was great to see someone - I don’t remember who it was - call him on his “Poor, poor Michael loves his family and suffering so much” handwringing by pointing out that Cohen is not the first person to find themselves in the grips of law enforcement but most of them are poor and people of color and no one cares about them.

And it’s interesting that, after years of Deutsch trashing Trump, we find out he’s thick as thieves with Trump’s enforcer.
