"If you're a Trump scandal aficionado, Michael Cohen is the gift that keeps on giving. Whenever he vaults back into the news, you know it's going to be some combination of comical and appalling, and extremely bad for his old boss, the president of the United States.
"As we learned this week, once President Trump was elected, a surprising number of wealthy and powerful people and organizations decided that if they were going to succeed in the new Washington, they needed access to the wisdom and insight of Michael Cohen. And they'd be willing to pay top dollar to get it. Yes, this ridiculous schlemiel — graduate of the country's worst law school, wannabe tough guy, possessor of a resting 'Oh god, I'm going to jail' face — was suddenly the recipient of millions of dollars from corporations and people looking to influence the new president. What better way, after all, than going through his 'personal lawyer'?"Michael Cohen: "ridiculous schlemiel" and heretofore unknown "Renaissance man."
As we've said before, the one thing that ultimately might save us is the unbridled greed and sheer incompetence of these crooks and traitors.
