Cell signal puts Cohen outside Prague around time of purported Russian meeting


So if Cohen met and paid off hackers along with Kremlin officials in the late
Summer of 2016 at the behest of Donald Trump will that be enough to make
Trump backers give up on him? Or is the real crime Hillary's email server?

[wryter2000]

1. Sadly, no

Did you see the signs that said, "I'd rather be Russian than a Democrat"?

[fleur-de-lisa]

2. It is a huge deal to those of us who closely follow the Mueller investigation.

To the rubes who worship Cheeto, it will mean nothing. Shitler will say "it has nothing to do with me" and the TrumpHumpers will agree. Sad!

[LonePirate]

3. Unless he disavows and repents for his racism, his base will never leave him.

Cohen being in Prague and everything in the Steele Doosier being true will not change his base’s opinion of him. They do not care about how he won. They only care that he is a dumb racist just like they are.

4. To me, that is consistently the greatest shared value between tRump and his supporters. And what

they cheer loudest for at his rallies. Other supporters are primarily concerned about $$$$$'s and what he brings/might bring them.

[AlexSFCA]

20. 100% agree

E.g., if he decides to soften his immogration stance, that would be the only way for him to lose his supporters. As far as DNC e-mail, they actually support the hacking cause “dems are not people”.

[Ohiogal]

5. The majority of them

think Russia did us all a big favor conspiring to get Trump elected by any means possible. So, no.

The depths of their brainwashing is bottomless.

[Botany]

9. "The depths of their brainwashing is bottomless."

I was eating a meal @ a local pub* the other day and the guy in the both behind me
kept going on and on to the man he was sitting w/ about how much money "the O man"
had stolen from him in the past 8 years.

* Clintonville area of Columbus, OH

[Ohiogal]

19. You showed remarkable restraint

Not hauling off and punching him in the face.

I assume you did not, anyway. lol

Ohio has our share of MAGAidiots, for sure

[Botany]

25. He is a regular @ the bar and a big Fox watcher too. Nothing will help him

Besides he is really big too.

[True Blue American]

32. That area is Republican to the core, but a Democrat came close this time.

Columbus was Kasich’s district, gerrymandered clear up to Marion.

[Botany]

39. Not my area ... we are blue but the gerrymandering is massive

n/t

[True Blue American]

41. You said it.

[Dave Starsky]

6. He can roast and eat an an infant on live TV.

His followers couldn't care less. They are a cult.

[Kingofalldems]

7. Kick for the conservative thinks tanks lurking here.

[erronis]

34. And many within those think tanks understand and agree with what we are saying.

But that's not their job - to try to correct the course of their mission and leadership. Basically, they're in it for the money and the access to power.

And to be able to write yet another tiresome story about what they witnessed and what truth really is, this time really.

[enough]

8. No. They're not following this stuff, and they wouldn't care if they knew. NT

[awesomerwb1]

10. I think you already know the answer to that question

There is nothing he can do to get most MAGAts to stop worshipping him.

[Kablooie]

11. This is evidence. Evidence is not considered by Trump supporters.

They react from pure emotion and tribalism.
No amount of evidence would Change their opinions.

[Kingofalldems]

12. Wasn't Melania or the Princess there too?

[Botany]

16. The story is that both Jared and Ivanka were in Prague too.

As of now it is just an internet story now. But we do have pictures of
both Jared and Ivanka in Europe around that time.

The famous picture of Wendy Deng (Vlad's girlfriend and the former Mrs. Murdoch)
and Ivanka in Sofia, Bulgaria was from around that time.

13. Convince

If this doesn’t convince them there’s always Deutschebank/loans, Epstein/Katie Johnson, Rosneft/Putin/brokerage fee and Falwell, Jr/Pool boy/blackmail.

[BlueJac]

14. No way...

they could care less, they are all waiting for the return of Christ!

[lunasun]

15. Hillary . Please c'mon now do you know nothing about deplorables ?

[mwooldri]

17. In the fact-free zone? Naaa.....

When you have Republican senators privately tell outgoing senator Claire McCaskill that Trump is nuts but they still support him... that tells you all you need to know about the cult of Trump.

[UpInArms]

18. ....

[Heartstrings]

21. Nope, it'll be just another

Fore! Just playing through....

[niyad]

22. kool-ade drinkers all.

[Kingofalldems]

23. Kick this one.

[Golden Raisin]

24. No. Deplorable to the end. Doubtful any of them

could point out Prague (or Czech Republic) on a map. And that goes for Trump too.

[Pacifist Patriot]

26. No. It requires a complexity of thinking they don't possess and don't want to possess.

It's just an inconvenient fact they can tell themselves is fake or, if real, doesn't matter anyway.

[Botany]

28. I wonder when Bob Mueller shows them pictures and tapes of Cohen paying off Russian Hackers in ...

.... in Prague in order to rig the elections how many will tune into Rush/Hannity to learn the real
truth and that this is all a deep state conspiracy being spread through Hillary's email server and
the liberal media to make Trump look bad.

Do you ever stop to think this is the biggest criminal operation in the history of the world?

[guillaumeb]

27. No.

The real crime is that many Trump supporters are deplorable.

[matt819]

29. He could appear at one of his rallies

in a Hitler uniform, complete with black mustache and swastika banners, and they would still cheer, adding Sieg Heil to their chants. So, no, nothing will change their minds. Not when the Secretary of State talks about fighting until the rapture and they all keep fear mongering about black and brown people. Not when the Big Lies keep coming, and even as they keep changing. They are going to remain steadfast in their cultish obsession.

[Vinca]

30. Nothing will alienate is cult base. He could BBQ kittens in the Rose Garden and they'd swoon.

[handmade34]

31. "Trump backers"

don't know what "Prague" is, and besides,what does it have to do with maga??

[Bernardo de La Paz]

33. Nope. Example:

I am sorry, but this strikes me as false. This guy has a passport, he would have had to go through customs and fill out a form. They know when he left the country and when he came back, if he ever went to meeting out of the country. It’s not complex. “His cellphone was there” means nothing without his passport and person registered.

This is all about the “Russia Russia Russia”, so they don’t have to face the music about political spying with Federal government assets.

36. +1. What an ignorant idiot

[dalton99a]

35. They don't care, and they don't want to know.

Trump did nothing wrong, and can do no wrong

[NastyRiffraff]

37. Nope

They won't understand the significance. Even if Trump himself had been in Prague for a secret Russian meeting they wouldn't care.

[VOX]

38. Trumpists are a CULT, existing in a manufactured alternate reality, impervious to objective facts.

There is NOTHING that would make Trumpists turn away from their leader.

The right-wing feedback system (Fox, hate radio, Russian trolls, etc.) reinforces daily their delusional beliefs, with non-stop florid tales of the latest attacks to malign and undermine their heroic, embattled Leader, who is fighting a desperate, defensive campaign against the Soros-funded, Obama/Clinton-led, godless, “Deep State” Democrat (sic) pedophile Armies of Darkness.

Sound insane? Of course it does, because it is. Sound far-fetched? Spend an hour reading Breitbart, or watch 10 minutes of Hannity. Take a dervish-spin through social media, using the search terms “patriot” and “liberty,” and read the unbridled, bottomless hatred in the user comments.

If you do, you’ll see that my first paragraph above is actually the lighter fare. American democracy is in deep trouble.

[malaise]

40. I think his lie about the 10% salary increase or the military will

Do more damage than anything else. That's the one that will finish him off.
