Just so we remember:

“Michael is in business. He’s really a businessman, a fairly big business as I understand it, I don’t know his business. But this doesn’t have to do with me. Michael is a businessman, he’s got a business. He also practices law, I would say probably the big thing is his business, and they’re looking at something having to do with his business. I have nothing to do with his business.”

As the saying goes…he wasn’t an ambulance chaser, he got there before the ambulance.

Of course he was. Insurance fraud is one of the primary businesses of organized crime. Right up there with gambling and prostitution.

Better Call Cohen is the title of the article, a real life CRIMINAL lawyer. I’m happy.

@cascabel Strange but true. Ratso hitting the cab and hollering was not in the script, took everybody by surprise but director liked so it, so it stayed.

@mike_in_houston He is or was what used to be called an ambulance chaser, who’d sometimes show up at funerals and hospitals looking to drum up business.

It’s worth noting that this kind of thing is apparently extremely common in Russia. The reason there were so many videos of the meteor fireball a few years ago is that everyone has dash cams to keep from being ripped off.

So a criminal attorney represented criminals? Huh.

Everyone deserves representation, and I’m sure they got everything they deserved with Cohen.

The accidents were fake! How can a crime be committed if the underlying act is a fake?!?!*

This looks like the opening salvo in the Trump camp’s efforts to discredit a potentially lethal witness against him.

"Michael Cohen represented clients involved in car crashes.

But, according to a new investigation by Rolling Stone, many of those accidents were staged or deliberate."

Rest assured, Michael, the sudden and catastrophic impact you are about to experience will be very real.

No brakes will slow you.

No airbags will cushion you.

No insurance policies will fraudulently enrich you.

Enjoy the ride.

And don’t be concerned if you feel a couple of sets of wheels - that’s only a bus.

…he may have not known about the nature of his client’s intentions.

The cause of his sudden, miraculous blindness to the patently obvious can’t be ascertained with any certainty, but I’m willing to wager a Ben Franklin on my explanation for it.

Given the propensity for Republicans to project their own illicit activities onto everyone else, and the river of corruption flowing daily from anyone in Dump’s orbit, perhaps a federal Special Victims Unit squad should begin searching for a pedophile ring operated under the guise of a pizza :pizza: restaurant in the DC area, NYC, or possibly Pruitt’s hometown (for starters). Because at his point, it wouldn’t surprise me in the least. Heck, maybe that’s why Dump and Ivanka are so heavily Invested in maintaining their supply of goods from Asia.

Scum through and through, top to bottom. Though this comment is pure snark, I put nothing past them at this point.
