AOC talking about how taxpayer dollars built Trump’s golf course in Bronx.
Cohen agreeing that Trump undervalued his properties to duck taxes.
Pressly addressing the Trump portrait sale.
Cohen: “It was all about ego.”
I just never expected to hear any candid, sincere, and accurate self-appraisal from a Trumpian. I’m too used to things like: hateful trolling, scapegoating, dog-whistling, insincere denials, and “irony” from the alt-right playbook.
That looks like a man who’s hit rock-bottom and is fully aware how far he’s fallen. No need for empty posturing now, I guess.
Not even a blow job. Lying about a blow job. Which we now know is a mere “process crime”. It’s not even a real crime when Republicans do it.
Seeing the diversity of the people questioning Cohen is really turning me on.
Cohen agrees that he covered up felonies committed by Trump and is not acting in the country’s interests.
Meadows trying to strike Tlaib from the record, unsucessfully.
On what grounds?
No, YOU’RE the racist!!!
Tlaib states that it was offensive that Meadows used a black woman as a prop to try to prove Trump isn’t racist.
Meadows demands it be stricken on the grounds that she is insulting him.
Cummings allows Tlaib to repeat her statement and denies the motion.
“No; YOU’RE the racist!”
It was racist to suggest I did something racist!
Asshole Meddo$e: “Some of my favorite chairmen is black. Ah hain’t no racist.”
Hice reading more nonsense into the record.
I gotta admit, “I didn’t say he was racist, I said he did a racist thing” comes across as a weasel move. Either have the guts to stand by your statement, or take it back entirely.
There are 11,513 magazine articles explaining what a criminal Trump is. Why don’t the D’s ask unanimous consent to place those in the record?
Cohen to give closing remarks.
Without objections, so ordered.
Oh there’s plenty of need! He’s facing 5 years in prison, max. Likely only 3 if he behaves himself. He’s a lot of things, but he isn’t stupid. He had the foresight to tape his interactions with Trump after all. The worse this week looks for him, the more it will look like atonement, and the sooner he can get back out there helping to seat Russia’s pawns. He cries about missing out on his lovely wife and beautiful kids–he was perfectly willing to cozy up to some right nasty SOBs and place them at risk. But you’re right–the Trump way is chest thumpery and grandstanding. Can’t wait to see if Trump is defiant to the last of if he wets himself as well when the chips are down.
