GP hasn't been to trial and the list goes on What are you talking about? Flynn and Papadopoulos have already pleaded guilty so they're not subject to trial. They have already been 'convicted' by their own admissions - under the law they're just as guilty as if they had gone to trial and been convicted. As the captions in that graphic indicate, they're just awaiting sentencing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comments by Cohen's lawyer went a bit further than that: Quote Michael Cohen's attorney on Tuesday night said his client had knowledge that would be "of interest" to Robert Mueller and would be willing to tell the special counsel “all that he knows." “Mr. Cohen has knowledge on certain subjects that should be of interest to the special counsel and is more than happy to tell the special counsel all that he knows,” Davis said on MSNBC's "Rachel Maddow Show." Quote "Michael Cohen took this step today so that his family can move on to the next chapter. This is Michael fulfilling his promise made on July 2nd to put his family and country first and tell the truth about Donald Trump," Davis said in a statement. "Today he stood up and testified under oath that Donald Trump directed him to commit a crime by making payments to two women for the principal purpose of influencing an election," he continued. "If those payments were a crime for Michael Cohen, then why wouldn't they be a crime for Donald Trump?" http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/402954-lanny-davis-cohen-is-more-than-happy-to-tell-the-special-counsel-all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no Trump supporter, and the liberals might be orgasmic this morning, but Trump paid off a few girls? what's the big deal? and what, what, what about Russia? wasn't that the main focus? where's the meat in the burger? Bob A number of convicted paedophiles in the UK were caught after their media devices were examined by the police. In certain cases it was entirely unrelated investigations that prompted the initial computer searches. Should the evidence unearthed have been ignored , should those men not have been prosecuted ?

From what I've read and heard Cohen handled Trump's domesticate affairs ('affairs' both figuratively and literally). Cohen may not have much of interest to Mueller that Mueller doesn't already have. Manafort is a different matter. And of course there is much about Mueller's investigation that we don't know yet. Cohan had access to and used "Election Campaign Funds" to pay off two women who could spill the beans, hardly call that a domestic issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, Cohen's lawyer has said that his client knows a lot about the conspiracy with the Russians, and is willing to cooperate with Mueller. Cohen's activity as trump's bag-man included international locales. Mueller's in-box is probably at capacity with urgent messages from everyone in the trump campaign looking for a deal. Even Eric has probably called. Don’t be silly. Eric doesn’t know how to use a phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likerdup1 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 The sophomoric buffoon may finally have to close down the circus! Let's see some more convictions. This is great news. It wasn't long ago Trump was bragging he's the one of the best in the word at vetting help and two of his closest ex-advisors are convicted! What a joke. He keeps changing staff faster than they change bed sheets at a Soi 6 whore house! This is the guy who's popularity more or less originated from the Apprentice reality show where each week he's responsible for vetting people to run help a company. Now after elected president we find most of his help stinks in real life! You'd think the majority of the US public would understand that being a Doctor on TV doesn't qualify you for heart surgery at the hospital down the street!

Credo Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 One of the reasons that there is such a focus on Cohen is because he has a HUGE amount of information on the now disbanded (or frozen from operating) Trump Foundation, which has been involved in a number of alleged illegal activities. “For more than a decade, the Donald J. Trump foundation has operated in persistent violation of state and federal law governing New York State charities. Further is this: Trump Foundation funds were illegally used to: pay off Trump’s legal obligations; promote Trump hotels and other businesses; and purchase personal items. The Trump Foundation “illegally provided extensive support to his 2016 presidential campaign.” The foundation raised “in excess of $2.8 million in a manner designed to influence the 2016 presidential election at the direction and under the control of senior leadership of the Trump presidential campaign.” https://qz.com/1305669/read-the-new-york-attorney-generals-lawsuit-against-donald-trump-and-the-trump-foundation/ The actual money for the pay off of Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal were paid out of Trust. Again illegal. The people running the trust and the foundation are Trump's children. In short, Cohen's information could leave to indictments of Ivanka, Don Jr., and Eric Trump.
