Interesting! What was the Asshole-electâs cut, thatâs the real question.
Did ANY of these 'people try to arrange meetings between Trump and US citizens or just everybody in the former Soviet Union?
It was just a friendly gesture from the Ukraine. They wanted to make Trump feel better for never winning an Emmy Award by awarding him $400K instead.
What are the odds that Mueller already has the bank records? Cohen is in deep, deep doo-doo.
If Cohen did all these behind the back dealings, making big bucks off Trumpâs brand and pocketing it without Trumpâs knowledge and blessing, weâd expect a Cat 5 twitter storm from the WH. The absence of this can only be explained by 2 scenarios, Trump knew and was getting his (lionâs) share or Trump was ignorant but his thumbs are tied because of all the other stuff Cohen has on him. I suspect the former.
Will there be a Dotard Challenge Coin cast for this event too?

wonât it Michael.
You want to say Michael, the earlier you cut the deal the better the terms.
The rest of us are having no difficulty seeing the walls closing in on you
Your options are narrowing by the minute and if you think Fat Nixon is going to bail you out yer a lot effin dumber than I thought

The story notes that there is âno suggestionâ Trump was aware of any payment.
Oh come now! TRUssia probably got two thirds of the money. Or more. Heâs got some very expensive rooms -for-rent at Moron Logo.
From the BBC story:
"A report by a member of a Western countryâs intelligence community says Mr. Poroshenkoâs team believe they have established a ânon-aggression pactâ with Mr. Trump âŚ
âThis information was given to me by a very senior police officer who saw the report. He said it had not been passed to the Americans.â
Letâs hope it was passed to one American at leastâŚ
This was always a bad business proposition for Ukraine â they were a mark. Putin would never give the green light to substantial, positive modifications in US - Ukraine relations. Representing it as anything else was doubtless fraud, although that wouldnât be anything new to the denizens of Trump World.
Still, Iâd love to see where the money went after it was given to Cohenâs shell corporations. I presume SDNY is looking into those connections.
I think this Cohen fucker Just might have out grifted that whole god damned family of grifters. Itâs pretty bad when the payer of the bribe complains openly about the poor value received.
If Cohen did accept these funds, it would be just the latest example of the presidentâs former personal attorney raking in huge sums in exchange for his purported access to the White House.
Can someone remind me what T rumpâs beef regarding the Clinton Foundation, and pay-to-play was all about?
It was just Ukrainian leadership reimbursing Cohen for having him cover up all of the affairs with porn stars they were having.
The Ukrainians were ultimately dissatisfied with the brief sit-down between the two leaders held at the White House last June, saying Cohen had accepted âhundreds of thousandsâ of dollars but failed to deliver a substantial meeting, according to the BBC.
Donât feel singled out, Yegor and Oleksander. Donald Trump hasnât had a meeting of substance any time this century.
One source told the BBC Cohen received $400,000; another put the total at $600,000.
Both could be correct. The total paid was $600,000, of which Cohen received $400,000. David Dennison got the rest.
