change the fact that he is defending Trump, a man who has not only endorsed white power groups be bringing them into the top tier of his administration, but proudly stood up in defense of Neo-Nazis and the KKK. Cohen chose his client, whether for fame or fortune, he has indeed aligned himself with racists and fascists... so birds of a feather, my man. You are all that just by the company you keep.

James Fields' mother said he couldn't be a racist because he had a black friend.
