It sounds like Michael Cohen was also given some money to help boost Trump's rating in online polls, something like $50k to give to a small IT firm called RedFinch that just so happened to be owned by the CIO of Liberty University. Michael also apparently asked that they create a Twitter account called "@WomenForCohen" to tweet about how hot he is.

I am not making this up.

Also of note, it looks like then Cohen stiffed them, paying out significantly less than the $50k offered (I've heard both $18K and "$12-$13k plus a glove that had previously been worn by a Brazilian MMA fighter.")

I'm not sure that this is directly politics related, but it is hilarious, so I'm going for it.

I’d Definitely vote for more humor in the political thread...

Treason; punishable by up to the death penalty.

Yet McConnell and company will continue to hump his leg like he's the second coming of Ronald American Jesus Reagan.

And if/when he and his ilk do finally turn on Trump, their bases (those slightly less deplorable than Trump's base) won't see them for the spineless cunts that they are.

That's one of the ones that I think has shocked me the most. Texas has that reputation where you don't mess with someone, and you sure don't insult their wife, yet somehow they're okay with their senator basically saying "Please, sir, can I have another?"

Mueller's spokesperson has since stated that BuzzFeed's article is in accurate. Bad look for the "liberal" media. 😐

Inaccurate as it is... Anyway, I still think Trump’s days are numbered.

Republican Party has finally repudiated Rep Steve King. He’s basically John the Baptist for Trump. Not only that, King’s Election win in Iowa also had the lowest margin ever...

Government shut down and trade wars might further ruin the economy...

Can things rebound for trump in 2020? I think not. Fingers crossed.
