I spent 2 weeks active duty at the site of the Hindenburg crash. Not in 1937 though. More like 1980. Lakehurst Naval Air Facility. Hugh hanger.

Sure is a good thing for him that he only has to fly in Air Force One...for now. With so many thousands of bullet fragments in his feet he would never get through the metal detector for a regular flight. What he is going to do when he is out of office, I don't know. Maybe the John Madden bus? Private train car? Hopefully, trump will be flying this in the near future: He would be Johnny-23?

Michael Cohen to Plead Fifth, Though Trump Once Said That’s for Mobsters “The mob takes the Fifth,” he said at an Iowa campaign rally in September 2016. “If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?” --------------- “When you have your staff taking the Fifth Amendment, taking the Fifth so they’re not prosecuted, when you have the man that set up the illegal server taking the Fifth, I think it’s disgraceful,” he said. ---------------------- “Did you see her IT specialist? He’s taken the Fifth,” Trump said. “The word is he’s ratting her out like you wouldn’t believe it.” nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/04/cohen-to-plead-fifth-though-trump-said-thats-for-mobsters.htmlTrump's lawyer is pleading the fifth. According to Trump, only guilty people plead the fifth. Lol!

Trump is crazy or something even those people on fox news looked like they couldn't believe what he was saying and doing. They looked totally miserable.
I'm hearing tonight on Lawrence ODaniel that Murdock told fox news to shut the trump call in down.
Just listening to trump he certainly did sound unhinged, he has problems for sure.

He was talking in an unusually frantic, high pitched voice, wasn't he.
I'm not a medical expert, so I won't predict that he will be dead in two months from Parkinson's, but it was unusual.

I'd prefer him here, I think. Eh...... Isn't that shot from Dr. Strangelove? I wouldn't give Trump any ideas in that department....... Yes it is, and why do you think it occurred to me? Although, any type of "love" the man is capable of must be pretty strange, so there is that too....

I had 2 random strangers comment to me about him today while out shopping. Once they found out I agreed it was like they let it all out. Both said they had lost friends because of their intense dislike for him and could not believe, just like us, congress is not doing something about him. I was shocked, its usually me. I hope this intense dislike and disbelief in the crap he is doing and the damage he is inflicting spreads to more people.
I think he does have some type of mental issue. He sounded crazy on fox news.

I believe that or some other executive...normally one does not want to shut off a POTUS on a exclusive call in....unless that POTUS is acting irrational and u built your reputation on pandering and promoting that POTUS... Notice how CNN and other competitors jumped on it and showed the whole call in..basically promoting their chief competitor and it's staff...but story was to hot to ignore.

Trump knew about the payment or didn't know about it? Trump paid Cohen back or Cohen paid for it out of the goodness of his stony black heart? Trump knows Stormy or didn't know her?

If trump had made one honest statement, stuck to it, then shut up things would not be like they are. I'm beginning to agree
with Avenatti, trump will not serve out his term. He had a good economy going in, momentum would have kept it up.
He could have continued it, not done what he has and been a hero, he is killing it, like bush did. Remember when he came
in and talked the economy down, trump is doing the same with all this stuff. These guys are nuts. This daniels thing and his mouth is going to kill it all before he is done.

READ: George Conway Tweets Section of FEC Law Citing When Money Is ‘Not Considered the Candidate’s Personal Funds’On Wednesday night, Rudy Giuliani, newly minted member of Donald Trump’s legal team, went on Sean Hannity to defend his client against the claim that the $130,000 hush money payment to Stephanie Clifford (aka Stormy Daniels) ran afoul of campaign finance law. GIULIANI: Having something to do with paying some Stormy Daniels woman $130,000? Which, I mean, is going to turn out to be perfectly legal. That money was not campaign money. Sorry, I’m giving you a fact now that you don’t know. It’s not campaign money. No campaign finance violation.
HANNITY: They funneled it through a law firm.
GIULIANI: They funneled through a law firm, and the president repaid it.
Enter George Conway, Harvard and Yale educated lawyer, husband to Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway and frequent Trump critic on Twitter. With one succinct tweet, Conway indicated that Giuliani’s reading of campaign finance law is flawed: Not considered the candidate's personal funds
Personal gifts and loans If any person, including a relative or friend of the candidate, gives or loans the candidate money “for the purpose of influencing any election for federal office,” the funds are not considered personal funds of the candidate even if they are given to the candidate directly. Instead, the gift or loan is considered a contribution from the donor to the campaign, subject to the per-election limit and reportable by the campaign. This is true even if the candidate uses the funds for personal living expenses while campaigning.

Do you suppose they maintain an icy silence, or are they both laughing about the whole mess?

The conspiracy nuts will go wild over this.
Cohen had to pay something like 300,000 in back taxes due to some flimflam over taxi medallions, so it sounds like he's doing some plain old white collar criminal type tax evasion shit. That's probably how they got permission for the wire tap (apparently, he was working with some relative in Chicago on the medallion thing, if I remember right, so they were probably fishing for proof of that crime).
But conspiracy groups will gin it up into further evidence that law enforcement is trying to take Trump down.

I heard on the CBS news tonight before I left for work that someone (Giuliani, maybe?) said that part of the "how this was not an illegal payment/repayment" defense was that "it was paid off by Trump as part of the lawyer's standard retainer".
Ummm.... that's now how retainers work. I'm not a lawyer and even I know that... (would a lawyer from the board either correct me or back me up?)
Oops... Just Googled it. Turns out they were referencing Trump's tweet...
(I believe that that's still not how retainers work though... no matter who said it)
