The Donald Trump Score Card

This is actually pretty troubling.

Analysis | The White House calls Ty Cobb’s exit a ‘retirement,’ but it sounds as though he was pushed

Donald Trump is the head of Trump's legal team. Ty Cobb was the only lawyer left with a security clearance. Trump deserves a competent legal defense, and at this rate he won't have one.

 

"The White House calls Ty Cobb’s exit a ‘retirement,' but it sounds as though he was pushed.’

If it ever ends up like Nixon, the White House will claim that Trump wasn't pushed to exit but that he simply opted for retirement.

 

Made America Great Again in only two years, then walked off into the sunset.

 

This is expected. Trump alone can fix it. Trump knows the law (and just about everything else) better than everyone. It's part of the narcissitic fashion of handling his life prior to becoming President.

What Trump may not appreciate are the major differences between local court cases involving his abuse of contractors (where he had the advantage of being a billionaire) and those involving Constitutional law.

 

Trump knows everything better than everyone.

being asked to leave, or leaving on their own doesn't matter. trump's former lawyers are probably glad to be out of there.

 

Trump once again is portraying himself as the victim.

Trump: Payoff deals like Stormy Daniels' are common for 'people of wealth'

excerpt:

"On Wednesday night, after his initial appearance on "Hannity," Giuliani told The New York Times that after the presidential campaign, Cohen was reimbursed $460,000 or $470,000 in $35,000-a-month installments through a Trump family account for having "settled several problems" for the president.

Giuliani said he was "not clear” whether Trump was aware of the payments to Daniels when they were made, according to The Times.

"I don't think he did (know) until now," Giuliani said. "That removes the campaign finance violation, and we have all the documentary proof for it.""

 

Trump: "Cohen, I did it again. Fix it!"

 

Guiliani is calling on Sessions to close Mueller...

 

I would like to watch that Russian sex tape they made of Trump and big 6'9" Boris the proctologist extraordinaire...

 

If that ever happened, what would happen then?

 

Giuliani talks like he's on the team prosecuting Trump.


Giuliani’s Defense Only Intensifies the Legal Risks for Trump

How Giuliani’s Defense Just Intensified the Legal Risks for Trump

excerpt:

"“Money from the campaign, or campaign contributions, played no roll [sic] in this transaction,” the president insisted.

But Giuliani quickly contradicted that explanation in an interview with Fox and Friends Thursday morning, indicating that the payment to Daniels was meant to prevent damaging information from emerging in the latter days of the 2016 campaign. “Imagine if that came out on October 15, 2016, in the middle of the last debate with Hillary Clinton,” Giuliani said. “Cohen didn’t even ask. He made it go away. He did his job.”

That statement, legal experts said, appears to confirm that the payment was a campaign expenditure. “This is good circumstantial evidence this was campaign-related,” said Rick Hasen, a law professor at the University of California, Irvine. “Giuliani did Trump no favors.”

Fischer agreed. “Giuliani's reference to the October campaign debate makes the electoral purpose of this payment more clear than it already was, and it already was pretty clear,” Fischer said. “It is hard to argue that this payment was not intended to influence the 2016 election, and it should have been reported.""

 

Liberals are leftists because the extremist right wingers labeled them that, because it sounds worse than liberal. Liberal denotes being liberated, leftist denotes commies....you know....like the Russians and Putin, Trump's buddies. CONservatives have no shame....they side with the commies, and demonize real Americans. How low will YOU go?

 

I don't really know how far it would play out in a constitutional crisis. It would be a limited collapse of federal institutions, something Trump has started anyway. (i.e. government services cut or ended) Then the Democrats and Republicans will go at each other...maybe take it to the supreme court? I know Trump and the Freedom Caucus have done some serious damage to this country.

 

And Trump brought all the women who sued Bill Clinton to the debate with Hillary...knowing all along his own sex adventures were safe in Cohen's file cabinet.

 

Well that's where we enter the real Constitutional crisis. A conflict that the current law is unable to resolve.

The only resolution we have in that case, is impeachment. Which is is a political solution, not a legal one. Meaning if the political will for impeachment doesn't exist, it won't happen.

We didn't even remove Andrew Johnson from office, who was arguably a worse president.

If I were to bet, I'd say Trump get's impeached but not removed from office like Clinton.

 

If enough Republicans vote with democrats...like corker and McCain and Flake...he'll have to resign or get impeached like Nixon. Big Question is how far Repubs are willing to back him knowing what the voters are about to do. The recent attacks by Republicans on Mitch McConnell are sure to piss him off.

 

lol. trump really knows how to pick them doctors, and lawyers.
