Why? Specifically?


This would be DOJ confirming that a campaign finance violation was committed by Trump's team to sway an election. Not a small thing.


so, paying a whore so she won't talk about an affair is equivalent to campaign finance violaitons?

sorry, I don't see it, not unless they can prove campaign donation funds were used and Trump knew; which I do not believe...

Isn't the entire purpose of a campaign team is to "sway an election"???

It would mean Cohen violated campaign finance rules. It doesn’t mean anything about trump.


His personal lawyer and "fixer" isn't connected to Trump?

And “to sway an election”? What do you think a campaign does?


A campaign doesn't commit crimes in order to sway voters. This isn't a difficult concept.

Yeah, if Cohen is pleading to paying women off for Trump then it's a pretty big card.




So, youre blaming the victim in extortion?

So let me get this straight....

Comey leaks notes for the purpose of getting RR to appoint a special counsel.

The scope of the Special Counsel is to investigate possible obstruction of justice, but then somehow the scope expands to investigating possible conspiracy with Russians to influence the election.

And so far, the Special Counsel has got:

PapaD on lying about when he met Halper - process crime.

Manafort on 5+ year old tax fraud - unrelated to Trump and SC scope.

Gates on 5+ year old tax fraud - unrelated to Trump and SC scope.

12 Russians + 3 Russian companies on creating social media propaganda campaigns attempting to "influence" our election - unrelated to Trump and SC scope. [None of which will ever see a courtroom, except one company which is fighting back and making Mueller look stupid.]

12 Russian GRU agents for allegedly hacking/phishing the DNC server and disseminating factual materials showing the world how corrupt and shady Hillary, her campaign, and the DNC are - unrelated to Trump. [again, none of which will ever see a courtroom and face charges]

Michael Cohen, Trump's attorney, on allegedly paying off women Trump banged to keep quiet, and not reporting the payoffs to campaign financing regulators - very much outside the scope of the SC.



So when is Mueller actually going to do something inside the scope of his appointment instead of just stepping through every Trump surrogate searching for unrelated crimes?

How is this at all prudent and justified?

What is your personal investment considering your dedication to wanting to damage the country by praying for your conspiracy theories to be true?

Well be that as it may, Cohen does, so he's pleading guilty.

You think this is waaaay bigger than it is.

Hillary’s campaign didn’t report payments for the dossier. That is a campaign finance violation. A crime committed to help sway an election! Gasp.

Stop being so dramatic.

Cohen can undo any damage he may have done to the country by telling the whole truth.
