Nope. His testimony carries weight because Cohen was for many years Trump's trusted personal attorney, a man chosen and previously renowned for his discretion and absolute loyalty.

If someone like that suddenly starts testifying against his previous client, that suggests that something is deeply rotten in the affairs of that client, and has been for quite a while.

And what testimony are you referencing? <insert your fantasy testimony here>

“But what if he’s proven to be a liar, congressman?” Cavuto asked.

“If he’s proven to have not told the whole truth about the fact that campaigns look for dirt, and if someone offers it, you listen to them, nobody’s going to be surprised,” Issa said. “There are some things in politics that you just take for granted.”

“You don’t think this has any long-term impact?” Cavuto asked. “He wouldn’t be the first politician, or president for that matter, to maybe just misrepresent things?”

Weird.

First subgenius tells us that we agree with something he thinks Cohen has said, and abuses us for that, then he asks us what it is that he thinks we agree with?

Yep. And this is the same guy who believes in the Clinton Kill List, and just about every crackpot Clinton conspiracy ever concocted.

I wonder if subs would tell us about where he stands on the whole Comet Ping Pong pizza parlor child sex ring thing.

And just hold on to that whole "collusion" fantasy because that is all you have....oh my, is that the 80s on the phone?

Just prior, Rudy said Cohen was a truthful and honorable attorney who always tells the truth. Trump has had nothing but praise for the man up until now. Now, suddenly when he actually says something, he immediately becomes an untrustworthy man who has lied all his life.

The real hypocrisy is on your end, but you're too dumb to realize it.

The fact is there is tons of evidence for collusion, not least of which is the fact that Trump publicly called for it and we now know that Russia complied with his request on the same day. But that doesn't count as evidence to idiots like you.

Only the dumbest of the dumb would actually believe Trump had no idea about this meeting that was taking place on the same day he was present in the same building.

Nope, you specifically referenced "testimony" and I asked for you to cite/reference that testimony since your claim was that it would (now) carry weight.

My observation is that when Cohen was pro-Trump you considered him untrustworthy, and now that your assumption (<---emphasis) is that Cohen is anti-Trump, suddenly his "testimony carries weight". Glad to see you place so much credence on an alleged flip-flopper. :eek:

I think you just came up with that colorful description. It's cute. : )

And now you still can't tell me that you don't believe in the Clinton Kill List, and just about every crackpot Clinton conspiracy ever concocted.

Subgenius,

You're absolutely God damn right I didn't trust Cohen when he was being paid money by his client to defend said client.

Seriously. What the “F” is wrong with you?

Yup.

And now he is no longer being paid by Trump, what he says on his own account, and what documentation he produces to support what he says, demand a quite different kind of attention.
