Speaking of animals, if we had to have a president with the first name of Donald, why couldn't his last name had been Duck?

I bet if you asked him directly now he'd answer.

He sure was in a chatty mood on Rachel's show

I don't 100% believe Cohen - I think he tries to tell his story in a frank way. But my guess is he's still something of a game player. And there are probably a few things he still hides, massages the truth of, or can't even quite admit to himself.

That said, I think he tells a lot of truth. He's an interesting character, and at least part of him wants to get the story - the real story - out there. For whatever reason, he likes talking to Rachel (like all the meatballs maybe?). And she teases interesting answers out of him. 10/10 would watch again.

Kayleigh...Yes, Cohen is a mendacious scumbag. He also happened to be Trump's long-time personal lawyer. Do you think that the excuse that everyone who surrounds Trump is a mendacious scumbag perhaps says something about Trump?

This. I love how the "president's" current round of Michael Cohen wannabes is trying to bash him for being a lying criminal... when everything he got caught doing was on Orange Hitler's orders.

Not interested so much in whatever Cohen’s trying to sell at this point as much as I am watching these paragon’s of moral virtue reveal who they actually are

“ "Hang up the goddamn phone," she told her husband. "Hang up the phone, Jerry!"

Just like Jesus would have done

I'm reading this book myself now. I'm not very far into it yet, but it seems to be giving a pretty good idea of what it's like to be a Trump toady. It lines up really well with what we already know about the culture (and cult of personality) around the toddler king.

There's already a lot of stuff I personally didn't know - not sure how much of it is new though, vs just things I hadn't heard. It would take about 500 terabytes to hold a bullet point list of all the evil / stupid / pathetic stuff that parasite has done, so who knows how much of it is already known / forgotten.

Somebody needs to make a website with a name like like trumpsfuckups..com, with a searchable list of all the fucked up shit he's done, with links to pictures / source material, just to get it all in one place. Should only take a couple thousand years to complete.

Also, I get the impression that he really despises Don Jr... Who talks about their own son that way, in front of anybody.. let alone an employee? I get the impression he might have read the book early, and that's why we have seen him coked out of his mind, trying way too hard lately..

Get someone to throw something at his head at one of his hate rallies, see if we get the joy of a Secret Serviceperson yelling "Donald! Duck!"

Christian scumbags and Republican scumbags all target the same audience and dupes.Rather than fight over the proceeds of the grift they simply joined forces and share the wealth.Tithe/donation, same same.
