Note to Russian intelligence. I would "Urge People who are Not Looking for America’s “Dumbest Criminal” to commit their crimes not to hire Preshitident Skanky-Manslut.

Real Warning from America’s Dumbest Criminals: “The crimes you are about to see are real. Only the names were changed to protect the ignorant.”

But what if I want a CRIMINAL lawyer, huh? You’ve had him since 2006, is he any good?

Dumbass Dotard just reemphasized that he retained this dude for a decade (though not as a lawyer) - not that we critics needed the reminder. But it might read a little jarring to his twitter fans/devotees inside of the bubble – if they ever pause to think.

Donnie’s locking the barn door a little late. First of all Cohen is about to be disbarred to not likely to be hired by anyone and secondly, I thought Donald only hired the very best people, so what gives? s/

This may be the smartest thing tRump has said since taking the oath. Cohen’s a bit busy these days, and he’s going to be even busier in the next few months, talking to the feds. I doubt that he’d have time to take on new clients.

There you go Michael; thrown to the wolves as this first response. I do hope you will repay his loyalty.

Hey Donnie, remember that oath you took? The one about faithfully upholding the Constitution and laws of the United States of America?

Some of us still believe in that oath, and that Constitution, and those laws.

Is this supposed to pass as humor? Seems Trump’s competent lawyer (Flood?) might have told him not to say anything about Cohen at all. But he just can’t shut up. So something strange oozes out of his twitter fingers…

Well, you people are simply ungrateful.

I, for one, am glad that Trump is sharing with us the benefits of his experience.

Future nuggets:

  1. “If anyone is looking for a good career, I would strongly suggest that you not lie, cheat, and steal your way to the not-even-close-to-the-top!”

  2. “If anyone is looking for a good family life, I would strongly suggest that you not betray woman after woman after woman after woman after woman!”

  3. “If anyone is looking for good children, I would strongly suggest that you not adopt mine!”

  4. “If anyone is looking for a good foreign power to collude with, I would strongly suggest that you not pick Russia!”

  5. “If anyone is looking for even a modicum of self-respect, I would strongly suggest that you stay the heck away from me!”

Yup, if you employ Cohen, your judgement is seriously in question.

Now that’s unfair. The Trump/Stormy affair had a definite beginning and end, no lingering foolishness about romance. Oh, you meant DISCREET? Then fucking say so (pet peeve).

Now let’s hope Cohen replies to the tweet with something like… “And for all you lawyers out there that might be looking for new clients… If you are looking for a client that won’t lie to you and pays his bills, you should stay away from Mr Trump.”
