I think both he and Trump are sleazebags.
The information that is being built up to date is looking like Trump himself will get indicted.
Michael Cohen... sleazebag or patriot?

Things are weird with Cohen, he doesn't gain to much with that show in Congress, you know, calling is former boss a liar, a con man, a racist. He is a very competent lawyer, if he is so honest he shouldn't have worked with Trump.or at least leaving the job after a couple of months. It seems to me that he is trying to finish Trump's presidency.

Sir, you are like Trump. You surround yourself with dishonest liars and criminals. As an appointed Elder you must be just like them, right? Your no different than Trump.

I don’t think Cohen did himself any favors. He just keeps lying. He’s in trouble again. I don’t think he’s the brightest bulb in the sky.

I worked in law enforcement for 8 years. I mistakenly asked a 25-year veteran cop wouldn't it be nice it the world was without crime. He said no then he would be out of a job. He said it wasn't a crime unless you were caught.
That taught me not to assume people's motives are good based on their employment or anything else. What they say and do is what counts. Actions speak louder than words.

Blondie like Anthony Weiner sending picks as Carlos Danger of his dick to kids? Or Clinton being a rapist?, the left is no novice at scandal's , coverups and stupidity. From Clinton covering up letting people die in Bengazi to her breaking the law on her emails and hiding it she is part of one of the most corrupt duo since Bonnie and Clyde Barrow. She is dumb and corrupt and the people saw through her like cellophane. As far as cops go the type of personality that gravitates to that job are usually control freaks with massive egos who love doughnuts. Well the Dog nut part is arguable. Anyone who thinks a cop is your friend is a fool.

Blondie ...
Excellent point.
Trump just surrounds himself with people like himself who have been convicted of felonies, charged or have pleaded guilty to lying to Congress.
Off the top of my head, Manafort, Flynn, Gates, Papadopoulos and now Cohen. I'm sure there are others.
And the party continues with the Mueller investigation.
Trump is making Richard Nixon look like a saint.

Well, Toby, you have strong beliefs. I don't think though that you know me well enough to make those judgments about me. I have realized that people are individuals and it is counterproductive so assume all people in a certain group are all alike. Since I worked with these people, I was well aware that some of them were not paragons of virtue. I did not associate with them and was willing to tell others of their criminal actions.

Blondie, I don't know you, and you assume I am talking about you. How could I we have never even met. In my experience a large group of cops has issues with control and in fact studies have been done that show cops have a large domestic abuse problem. Cops are a necessary evil. They tend to support each other when they are in the wrong creating a blue wall of silence. Do we need law enforcement? Sure. We also need a military but we need to keep them on a short leash. Like Hollywood the acting community has gays gravitate to that profession, so does law enforcement have a disproportionate group of people with aggressive personality's that should not have a badge or a gun. But such is life. As far as Trump goes, I follow Mayor Ed Koch, "if you agree with me 70 percent of the time, vote for me, if you agree with me 100% of the time seek mental help." I agree with Trump about 75 percent of the time. He is spot on with immigration. Mulsims are dangerous. Their radical religion does not assimilate and seeks violence to change what they do not like.
Mexico and South America is not sending us the best and brightest. The most poor, and criminal are coming across illegally. America is not the worlds battered immigrant shelter. We don't owe the world anything. We can not afford to keep taking in these poor and criminal and those who can not or will not contribute to the country.
I also agree with Trump that Socialism AKA Communism has failed with devastating results around the world. People do not try to breach our walls from Venezuela, Cuba and other communist countries because of how well socialism works. The Berlin wall was built to keep people in, our wall is to keep people out who seek to enter illegally.
I also agree that the so called Green New Deal and the so called fix to Global warming from the left is so radical and thought out its insane. When the theme song to AOC is the Gilligan's Island song, No phone no lights no motor car not a single luxury I am out. I am old enough to have like being a JWs lies the crazy end of the world wolf cries from them. The seas will be dead in 10 years, that was over 20 years ago, the earth is cooling that was in the 70s, We will reach peak oil in 1971, The world now has 12 years. Sorry but although I agree with the left on a universal health care system they are too crazy and dangerous on way too much to let have power.
Yes we do have some socialized programs but we are not a socialist country. We are a capitalist country with some socialist programs that capitalism supports.
So in the end I agree with Trump who has done what he ran on much more than Clinton, Obama and even Bush did. So he seems to be much more a man of his word. Is it abrasive, yep, does he seem to be missing a disconnect from brain to mouth, yep. But as long as he keep trying to protect our country and put actual Americans first unlike the left I will support him.
