Well, a handful of GOP congressmen sent a letter to Attorney General Bill Barr referring Cohen for investigation for perjury today

"We write to refer significant evidence that Michael D. Cohen committed perjury and knowingly made false statements during his testimony before an Oversight and Reform Committee"

When you look at the comparative facts of their claims, I bet he's in more trouble... for perjury.

The Clinton structure, and I agree, she ain't the head anymore, are just using him as a sacrificial goat. I notice today many said in closed hearings he stuck more to script, was more careful in wording, relied more on his lawyer and stayed away from all the liberal drama talking points...racist, sexist, criminal, con man, etc...

Any proof of payments, coaching, etc.? Would really be interested in seeing it, if it exists...

As far as Clinton is concerned, all Cohen did was look around for the best lawyer with experience handling political cases and he settled on one with a good track record; that he happened to be a counsel for Clinton does not necessarily mean Cohen is in the Clinton camp or in any other way associated with Clinton. So, any actual proof Cohen is in the sway of Clinton?...

It seems to me, Cohen finding a good attorney is something Trump should have done long ago; Trump's track record in hiring lawyers, advisers, etc., is really very poor and is highly indicative of extreme bad judgment. Just in the two years in office so far, Trump's managed to to go through a rogue's gallery of losers in his administration; so much for being a real stable genius...

BTW, both Trump and Roger Stone began their long friendship and partnership when they became protégés of their mutual mentor, Roy Cohn; Cohn, in fact was the personal attorney for Trump form 1973 to 1985, until Cohn was disbarred for breaches of ethics and criminal activity. Cohn was also representing several mob bosses, including John Gotti, at the same time he was representing Trump. Seems like Trump sure can pick'em when it comes to being a judge of character...
