Scott Jennings, a former aide to President George W. Bush, on Tuesday tried to downplay prosecutors’ harsh words about Michael Cohen’s hush-money payments during the 2016 campaign.
“There is no way they are going to impeach Donald Trump over $280,000,” Jennings said on CNN, where he is a contributor. “I mean, look, the prosecutors’ theory here in this indictment, this is flimflam. They’re basically saying if only the American people had known Donald Trump had had sex with two women who weren’t his wife, the outcome of the election could have been different. This is flimflam.”

Can I haz Chief of Staff Pleaze?
Maybe, but we don know, we are talking about 57K votes spread over 3 states. Add the russian collusion, and the FBI’s October surprise…
This is why the SDNY has to take the next step and charge Trump with the crime. The GOP will diminish any crimes they’re accused of until forced to face justice.
And a smocking gun to go with it!
“All those Evangelicals totally knew Trump was a manslut when they voted for him and campaign finance laws, like marital fidelity, are only for Democrats.”
