President Donald Trump on Monday called for his former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, to “serve a full and complete sentence.”
Trump listed several of the crimes to which Cohen has pleaded guilty, though he misleadingly claimed that the counts were “unrelated to Trump.”
“Michael Cohen asks judge for no Prison Time.” You mean he can do all of the TERRIBLE, unrelated to Trump, things having to do with fraud, big loans, Taxis, etc., and not serve a long prison term? He makes up stories to get a GREAT & ALREADY reduced deal for himself, and get…..

….his wife and father-in-law (who has the money?) off Scott Free. He lied for this outcome and should, in my opinion, serve a full and complete sentence.

Two of the counts to which Cohen initially pleaded guilty, and the additional count to which he pleaded guilty last week, are directly related to Trump.
Those three counts cover two campaign finance violations related to the hush money payments made to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, and Cohen’s admission last week that he lied to Congress about the Trump Organization’s continued efforts to pursue a project in Moscow well into the 2016 presidential campaign.
In fact, in a sentencing memorandum from Cohen’s attorneys filed Friday, they linked the three counts to Trump, referred to as “Client-1.”
“We address the campaign finance and false statements allegations together because both arose from Michael’s fierce loyalty to Client-1. In each case, the conduct was intended to benefit Client-1, in accordance with Client-1’s directives,” Cohen’s lawyers wrote.
The stable genius is declaring war on his capo who knows where all the bodies are buried. Smart.
I’m still waiting for the donald to put together a full and complete sentence.
Yes, we know, Donnie would just hate if Michael got out before he did.
Trump’s projection will never and can never be outdone in the annals of human psychology.
