Wow - Cohen Rips Trump in RNC resignation letter

[NewJeffCT]

"As the son of a Polish holocaust survivor, the images and sounds of this family separation policy is heart wrenching,” Cohen wrote. “While I strongly support measures that will secure our porous borders, children should never be used as bargaining chips."

1. This is his excuse to flip

[flibbitygiblets]

4. Yup. When you lose the guy who said he'd take a bullet for you only 6 months ago...

...dude, you're toast.

Also: Why did Cohen have to RESIGN from the RNC? Shouldn't they have, IDK, FIRED his corrupt ass months ago? Oh yeah. Nevermind. No ethics.

5. +1, they must of thought Red Don was going to pardon him already

[Thomas Hurt]

13. that whole loyalty thing was creepy and sick...

anyone who would say that for someone other family is off.

[Hortensis]

11. Yup. Also, bet the RNC wanted him out,

big fundraiser or not. No doubt donors are distancing.

2. Lol and WOW

3. This doesn't sound like a guy who's angling for a pardon.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I wonder if Mueller told him that a pardon wouldn't protect him from state crimes.

[NewJeffCT]

6. What I'm wondering

is if anybody told Trump that a pardon (or self pardon) doesn't apply to state crimes? Somehow, I doubt he would know on his own and I doubt his staff would tell him because Trump seems to be the "shoot the messenger" type. (Well, I don't think Trump would shoot somebody, but he would berate them and humiliate them in front of others)

7. I think he's actually angry.

Because for the past few months, it's been clearer that Tangeranus was going to throw him under the bus with the way he's been talked about by the misadministration.

8. Flip like the world-class gymnast we all know you are, deep inside, Michael!

Good boy! Now dance for us!

[Tatiana]

9. Gonna take a wild guess and suggest that he flipped?

No way would he disagree with Trump unless Trump had lost him.

Maybe this is related to Trump's playing fireman at the sight of his own arson.

[NewJeffCT]

12. I hope you're right

and he's not negotiating in public with Trump in hopes of getting his legal fees paid

[Duppers]

14. I'd say he's definitely flipped.

[JI7]

10. Does he realize how which side Trump would be when it came tothe holocaust ?
