The next few weeks and months are certainly going to be interesting!
As we’ve said before, somebody like Trump, in his line of business, MUST have so many skeletons in his closet. Whats protected him in the past was that there was no motivation to go after him – particularly given his litigious nature. In becoming such a contentious president he’s motivated armies of people to dig around in his past and uncover all the shady shit he’s been up to over the years.
I think that realistically they are looking at tying him up until 2020 so he can’t do too much harm – it will be interesting to see at what point the GOP cuts him loose.
I’m guessing that whenever he leaves the presidency the floodgates of civil suits and criminal charges are going to open.
Interesting to see the different approaches of Cohen and Manafort. Manafort is standing by his man, and obviously banking on a presidential pardon (although I suspect he will simply be re-arrested for something else). Cohen has obviously seen the writing on the wall and completely switched teams…… maybe an indication of recent progress in the investigation.
