If he has any sense at all he never would take this to trial. Without motivated prosecutors he would have been able to plead out lower, I expect, but unfortunately he and his compatriots have made things difficult for very motivated prosecutors.
To be fair, the TT meeting was in June and the FBI warning was August. Still, they should have known better, they should have reported the meeting after being warned, and they certainly should not have lied about it at every step.
Any campaign that was forewarned about Russian efforts would have taken the meeting and then denied taking the meeting and then lied about the content of the meeting and would then say they'd be stupid not to take the meeting like they've been very clear about all along and what about emails and Benghazi and Uranium One and #######s.
It needs be considered more than just cheating.... Hillary cheated by getting debate questions from Donna Brazile.
Needs more donkey.Nothingburger. There will be no impeachment or jail time. The donkey show will continue as scheduled
Cohen is pleading guilty to 8 counts. Only one of those counts is the campaign finance violation.
Would we if she had been elected President? My point this was more than just cheating by “Candidate 1.”

If Hillary had won, she would certainly be investigated for the Steele dossier. And as long as Republicans were in charge of Congress and there were elections on the line, there would be hearings about "Dossiergate". But without establishing guilt of people working for Hillary, it would be very difficult to justify impeaching Hillary.
You must be kidding. Trump’s election exposed and emboldened the dark underbelly of racism and ignorance of a huge swath of Americans which will linger almost as long as it’ll take for us to repair our reputation on the world stage. Whatever time Trump remains in office, we will need five times as many years to recover from the damage he has done, if not more.
I don’t think so. The whole “Steele Dossier” story was fabricated as a response to the Russian investigation.
Manafort cuz Cohen has more dirt on The Donald and can make a better deal for leniency.
If he gets pardoned he will face less time in the end. Part of the reason I posed the question.
The House would have impeached Hillary by July 2017 at the latest.
Not a big deal, but if you had said "serve" rather than "face" I would have answered differently.
Ah. I didn’t consider the wording, honestly.
Maybe, I’ll even concede probably. But wasn’t a core tenet of Trumps campaign he was going to clean up the crookedness of Washington and “drain the swamp”. So shouldn’t he drain himself then?
If they convict him in the DC case I don’t think they’d re-try him on the remaining EDVA counts. Convictions on those counts won’t increase the sentence on the overall case
Even now that he knows his chances in the next case look slim after what happened today?
showing his loyalty and hoping that Trump pardons him and Putin or one of the Ukrainians he double-crossed doesn't kill him.
