A hot mess.

This Michael Cohen Donald trump fiasco is just getting crazier and crazier.

I don't know where this is all going to end, but I think we can all agree that we are now in uncharted waters. One thing we do know though is this: trump's minions will stick with him no matter what.

 "So let’s review: Stormy Daniels‘ lawyer Michael Avenatti put out a document with multiple new allegations about Michael Cohen. One of them concerned $500,000 Cohen received from a company run by a Russian oligarch.

CNN subsequently reported this oligarch was questioned by Mueller’s team over payments to Cohen, and The Daily Beast followed up with its own report confirming the payment.

Another allegation in the document Avenatti shared is multiple payments from AT&T to Cohen’s Essential Consultants, LLC.

Now AT&T has confirmed the payment:" [Source]

Wow! Half a million big ones from a Russian oligarch to trump's personal lawyer and we are supposed to believe that there was no collusion? I don't think so.

But that's not all. Apparently there is more to that story about the GOP fundraiser and the Playboy model than we were led to believe.

Here is John Ziegler's take on it:

"If a story doesn’t add up, there is almost always a major problem with that narrative. And often, the biggest lies are both obvious and right out in the open. These are two basic principles of understanding humanity which the modern media has seemingly forgotten, especially when it comes to covering President Donald Trump.

There is no better evidence of this reality than the amazing piece posted today by New York Magazine which outlines a very convincing theory that the media recently bought into an obvious myth in a way which may have inadvertently protected Trump from perhaps his biggest scandal yet.

Recently we were told that a previously little-known GOP fundraiser named Elliott Broidy was immediately forced to resign from his position in the party because it was revealed that he had paid, through Trump’s attorney Michael Cohen, former Playboy model Shera Bechard $1.6 million to cover up an affair and possible abortion. My “blink” reaction on Twitter to this story was that it did not add up, though even I did not immediately conclude, as Paul Campos has in this piece, that Broidy was actually taking the fall for Trump himself.

After reading Campos’ in-depth analysis, we should all be embarrassed that we ever gave Broidy’s narrative even the slightest bit of credibility. Campos systematically decimates every aspect of the original unrealistic storyline like it was an episode of Sharknado. Quite literally, there is not one aspect of the current “plot” which makes sense, and only one element which doesn’t totally fit Campos’ alternative theory that it was really Trump, and not Broidy, who impregnated a Playboy model.

I always start at the most basic human level when evaluating the plausibility of any narrative which doesn’t at least pass the smell test. What struck me first here was that it seemed impossible that Broidy, and older, non-famous, long-married man would have had found himself in a situation in which he impregnated a top Playboy model to begin with.

Then there was also the issue of why he would pay so much money to cover up something which would not have had that much impact on his life if it had somehow come out naturally. It is important to note that there is no current evidence that his wife has even left him over this “revelation.”
But Campos goes far deeper in deconstructing the absurd current conventional wisdom about what supposedly happened here. When you look at the details (things which the modern media all-to-often has neither the time nor the wisdom to fully evaluate) of the business/legal aspects, it is actually laughable that it has taken this long for a mainstream media outlet to seriously question Broidy’s narrative.

Specifically, when you look at the motives of everyone involved in this, it all makes far more sense for Trump to have had the affair and possibly facilitated an abortion, Cohen to turn the super-rich Briody to pay Bechard off, and for Briody to take the blame to protect Trump while also obtaining huge leverage over the president of the United States, which was theoretically worth far more than $1.6 million to him." [Source]

Today, knowing that it would blow up the news cycle, Donald trump announced that he is pulling out of the Iran Nuclear Deal. He did it because he wanted us to talk about something else besides his distasteful and reckless behavior. He could care less about foreign policy and the impact on his decisions on the safety of the American people who elected him.   

Sadly, looking at the way that the media has been covering the story, it looks like he might have gotten his wish.

I don't really give Trump credit for being this super-genius wizard of the media, playing 20-dimensional chess to keep everyone from knowing what he's really doing. This narrative is wrong.

The reality is that Trump is just dumb as a bag of hammers and doesn't have a clue. He keeps outraging educated people and attracting horrified media attention, not as a clever distraction or diversion, but because he simply keeps spectacularly fucking up, over and over again. Which is exactly what you'd expect from a guy who became president of the United States despite having absolutely awful personal character and zero experience relevant to the job.

Why did Trump decide to blow up the Iran nuke deal? Because Obama negotiated it, so the dimwits of redneck America assume it must have been A Bad Thing, and therefore Trump assumes blowing it up will please them. That's it. The end. There's nothing more to it. This is the logic by which Trump makes all his decisions.

So Trump has pulled a truly boneheaded foreign policy move, rendering the world significantly less safe, because he, and wingnutland, are obsessed with flipping off Obama, or "owning the libs," or satisfying some other similarly irrational spite-based motivations. These are the idiotic times we are living through.

It's hard to tell what is supposed to be distracting from what when the turds are flying everywhere all the damn time like this, but it does seem like a major stretch to believe this is some master plan Fergus and his felons have cooked up.

I don't really care about his sex life. I would imagine it to be sleazy and gross if I were to imagine it, but why would I do that?

Because he's president?

Maybe if I had failed to consider what a Fergus presidency would actually look like and only opposed him out of partisan hatred, I might be taken aback by a sleazebag Republican acting like a sleazebag Republican, but that's not the way it went. I have well noted Republican sleazebaggery for many decades now.

He and Rudy are both in their seventies and nowhere near the top of their already weak games, and are out there making a hash of it.

All we can do now is hope like hell Bolton doesn't get his war with Iran for long enough for Fergus to be voted out of office, because if you thought the Iraq war was a clusterfuck (hint: it was and still fucking is fifteen years later) just wait until we try to invade a country three times the size of Iraq, with twice the population, and a far more cohesive national/ethnic identity than Iraq had in 2003.

Plus, they have an army. We haven't fought a stand-up army since what? Vietnam? Korea?

And if you thought dealing with Russia in Syria was hard, wait until they turn Iran into a proxy war with them to gin up regional support for their own aggressions.

They have no plan. They say they will enact more sanctions, but Tillerson closed down the part of the state department that deals with sanctions, and the guy at treasury who deals with them resigned.
Meaning they couldn't enact sanctions if they wanted to, and since we don't do business with Iran ourselves, any sanctions we do impose will mainly restrict financial and trade activity of OUR FUCKING ALLIES.

Congress (Dems) thought they saved the children's health insurance program for the next 10 years and Drumpf just tried to steal 10-15 billion bucks from it to pay for koch bros taxcuts.

Taxcuts for the koch bros will put a billion bucks in Drumpfuck's illegal; pockets. Remember he wouldn't get any return from dumping over a trillion bucks into billionaires bank accounts.

But then, we all knew and admitted Drumpfuck was a pathological lying piece of shit, didn't we?

This makes for a funny story, but there’s a pretty good chance the groundhog was a rabid animal. In which case, shooting it was a reasonable decision.

mike from iowa said...

But what’s missing from most of the news coverage is that Cohen was also the deputy finance chairman of the Republican National Committee when these payments were made.

I did not know this.

mike from iowa said...

If the groundhog had/has rabies they will have to give that section of highway rabies shots.

If the cop shot the groundhog in the head, the road will get rabies shots because the brain of the animal needs to be tested for rabies, before it is destroyed by gunfire.

As a Chinese-American I wonder why a "black blog" runs stories like this. Is it any wonder black communities and education lag behind? If you focused more on those things you might actually improve as a people, instead of wallowing in your own victimhood and entitlement.

Well, it does make sense as the donald likes to raw dog it. The biggest problem with trump is that now the bar is so low we have actual nazis running for congress as Republicans. I knew a reality star would be president some day I just didn't expect it so soon. Idiocracy was pretty much a documentary.

This whole flap about poor Stormy who took money to have sex with the monster is nothing more than a tempest in a chamber pot.

The miscreant/misogynist, DJT got his payment to her in time to shut her up for the 2016 election. Fait accompli. That's it, right folks? There is no amount of dirt that can ever disillusion the faithful in regards to their undying and unthinking love for their savior. Trump is the man. Bite it, liberals.

Trump should just be happy to making more money than any president in the history of the U.S.A. in no small part due to his flagrant disregard for the Title of Nobility of the United States Constitution.
