Cher, when asked about her impression of Reagan after meeting him: He has his shit together.

Probably Trump needs to take a look at the Republican hero, uncle Ronny.

Now it is absolutely necessary that the erratic one be kept away from his big nuclear button.

It appears that Trump is being held accountable for the first time in his life and it's freaking the shit out of him.

This President is the culmination, apex of those who believe lying about your taxes, cheating your partners stiffing employees. Laws or any rules are for others, the stupid. Doing what you want and not being questioned.
This is why he still has supporters and always will. Because of the many who feel enabled, entitled due to perceived superiority or wealth. There by able to do what where when how and to who they want whenever they want.
Much liken to those seeing no problem with the ads running on getting a lawyer so not to pay the IRS what is owed, hiding funds from ex spouse. There are those who relish the thought of getting over and see no shame in this.

An investigation from the Associated Press ties those fees to government influence. Of the nearly $22 million Clinton made in fees, most was from groups that had recently lobbied the government.
Hey Whell.
My opinion, if she had won the election then this would have been very thoroughly publicized and looked at. So yeah, there is a disparity in ethical accountability in politics.

Hopefully our next president will be held more accountable before he becomes president!

The FBI May Have Tapes Cohen Recorded

President Trump’s personal attorney Michael D. Cohen sometimes taped conversations with associates, according to three people familiar with his practice, and allies of the president are worried that the recordings were seized by federal investigators in a raid of Cohen’s office and residences this week.

Cohen, who served for a decade as a lawyer at the Trump Organization and is a close confidant of Trump, was known to store the conversations using digital files and then replay them for colleagues, according to people who have interacted with him.

“We heard he had some proclivity to make tapes,” said one Trump adviser, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the ongoing investigation. “Now we are wondering, who did he tape? Did he store those someplace where they were actually seized? . . . Did they find his recordings?”

The Dotard must be freaking the phuck out.

It would be karma after Trump threatened Comey, tweeting that he had tapes of their "loyalty" conversation.

"A federal judge dealt a blow to Michael Cohen, the president’s embattled personal lawyer, in a closely watched court decision on Monday afternoon.
Judge Kimba Wood of federal District Court in Manhattan denied an attempt by Cohen and President Trump to stop prosecutors from reviewing the materials that the FBI seized from his office, home and hotel room last week, according to multiple reports." The Hill

In related news:

(CNN) - Another white collar lawyer has turned down the opportunity to represent President Donald Trump, citing an unidentified conflict, as the President struggles to add to the legal team representing him in the special counsel investigation.
People close to Trump contacted New York attorney Steven Molo, a former prosecutor who specializes in white collar defense and court room litigation, in recent weeks following the departure of attorney John Dowd from Trump's personal legal team.


Real lawyers won't touch the Dotard with a 10' pole. He'll need to find another fixer as Cohen will be headed upriver pretty soon.
