What a world we live in. Michael Cohen, and Mitt Romney and Liz Cheney, are the good guys in the Fascist Party. What the hell, John Dean was a slimy lawyer helping Nixon until he found a conscience. Cohen knows the mind of Trump, I’ll skeptically take his word ---

the lawyer who was pre paid 3 million has been sidelined… [Chris Kise: Newest addition to Trump’s legal team sidelined in Mar-a-Lago search case | CNN Politics](https://edition.cnn.com/2022/09/27/politics/chris-kise-trump-mar-a-lago/index.html) from the article: Kise’s hiring came with an [unusual price tag of $3 million](http://www.cnn.com/2022/09/15/politics/save-america-pac-trump-lawyer/index.html), paid for by Trump’s outside spending arm. The retainer fee, paid upfront, raised eyebrows among other lawyers on Trump’s team, given the former President has a developed a reputation for not paying his legal fees. His sidelining will likely be read as another setback for Trump as he faces multiple investigations. Trump spokesman Taylor Budowich said: “Chris Kise’s role as an important member of President Trump’s legal team remains unchanged, and any suggestion otherwise is untrue.” ---
