Gotcha there, you hypocrite libtards!!!

That’s right. As another poster has pointed out, Hillary did “lots of illegal things” (although the same poster is completely unable to tell us whatever that is).

Cohen keeps suggesting there’s a long track record of hush money payments involving both women and men and no one is following up on that.

As in, he's had sexual dalliances with both genders??

Uh, that’s not implied. Presumably Trump has non-sexual matters he’s also used hush money payments to avoid seeing the light of day.

There’s an accusation floating out there that people sometimes forget that he’s paid for mistress abortions. Men could be involved in that. In any case, someone should ask Cohen what he’s alleging. A pattern of provable hush money payments would lend further credibility to these.

I don’t understand what the Cohen testimony is supposed to accomplish. Pretty much everyone has known that Trump is a garbage human being since at least the 80’s; and, the one common thread in his life is that he tends to surround himself with other garbage human beings.

Having Cohen reaffirm that we have a willfully ignorant piece of crap for a President doesn’t exactly accomplish anything. I think legislators are wasting time on this. President Trump is unlikely to lose any supporters, and is unlikely to gain any detractors. Conservatives will still despise him, Liberals will still clumsily demonize him, and Republicans will still adore him (with the occasional “I wish he wouldn’t ______, but…” to pretend some kind of morality or ideological consistency).

Meanwhile, we lose sight of the fact that Cohen spent a ridiculous amount of money to have his grandma’s couch cushions turned into a suit jacket.

It’s Congressional testimony providing strong evidence the President committed felonies to mislead the American public. That’s more specific than Trump is a bad dude, true as that may be.

Good point. Trump lies so incessantly that we are always in a quandary as to when we should believe him. Perhaps it is an on balance thing. If Cohen is telling tales against Trump then the tales might have some validity against Trump's more voluminous lies.

Your approach to parenting will be interesting.

No they couldn't, 'cause men can't have abortions.

Waitaminute. He could have agreed, at the insistence of the boyfriend or husband of the woman that he slept with, to pay for an abortion of the potential Trumpkin. This would then ‘involve men’.
