Michael who? > [@The Man](#): > > Michael Cohen was one of many lawyers who represented me (unfortunately). He had other clients also. He was just disbarred by the State Supreme Court for lying & fraud. He did bad things unrelated to Trump. He is lying in order to reduce his prison time. Using Crooked’s lawyer! ---

He actually addressed Cohen’s testimony in his Hanoi news conference. His takeaway: Cohen lied, lied, lied about everything - except when he said he didn’t know of any Russian collusion. That was the only time he told the truth. :rolleyes: ---

What does Hillary Clinton’s lawyer, Lanny Davis, say about this one. Is \*\*he \*\*being paid by Crooked Hillary. Using her lawyer? Unclear antecedent: does “he” (my bold) refer to Cohen or Davis? Anyhoo, Hillary is behind ALL of this! I knew it! Thump certainly suffers from (among other things) a complete lack of imagination. ---

> [@aurora\_maire](#): > > Does he believe that every book written about him is true? Does that include the books by Michael Wolff and Bob Woodward? Easy: if it’s flattery, it’s true; if not, it’s a lie. So Cohen’s proposed book was all true and his testimony was a lie. Wolff and Woodward are liars. It’s whackadoodle psycho, but at least it’s internally consistent. ---

(And I seem to recall several of that genre, penned by Fox News personalities.) As a matter of fact, what appears to have set Trump off this morning was a mention of Cohen’s scrapped book proposal by that noted practitioner of responsible journalism, Tucker Carlson. Trump seems to have forgotten that the book proposal was reported by several media sources more than a year ago. Trump is really reaching here, even for him. Note, as usual, his Tourette-like spluttering that someone criticizing him is lying, without ever taking a moment to detail a single one of these supposed lies. ---

If a book says nice things about Loser Donald, he believes it unequivocally. If it says mean things about him, it is a Fake Book.
