I find this to be the most disturbing.

Trump himself has dropped hints many times he's fucked his daughter.

Lol paid her for what? Nothing happened or did they forget?
When your current lie is to cover your last lie you sometimes lose track of yourself. Each time they open their mouths I take it as a new lie and usually given enough time that turns out to be true. I've also seen stories that Mueller is investigating this payment so there must be a method to the madness. They're like the Keystone cops on crack.

I just don’t understand why Cohen would put himself in the crosshairs of criminality. If he paid someone for the benefit of his client out of his own pocket that’s completely unethical. That close to the election it’s potentially illegal.

Someone in Trump's circle doing something unethical and/or illegal? That's totally unheard of.

There's a reason why he had to make this ridiculous statement, in order to clarify that campaign financing laws were not broken.

I hope the press core grills the liar Sanders on all questions about the $130,000 and Stormy.

1st: Was the $130,000 payment for sex or other services rendered.
2nd: What were the other services rendered.

Keep peppering her with these kinds of questions until she runs out of the room.

Legit to ask now. Since the WH want to play games lying to the public. Show people how much of a joke this WH is

Just imagine if this were Obama and a porn star payoff.
Oh My god!!!!!
The mighty wrath of the entire US congress would come down upon Obama.
If that congress were still controlled by the republicans, that is.
And this would go on and on for Obama's entire term be that 4 years or 8 years.
Endless investigation, unlimited taxpayer money spent.
But with Trump? Just a teeny tiny blurb that we hear about for a week or two, maybe, then nothing.
Certainly no concern from the republican controlled US congress.
Democrats bitch, republicans ignore, Trump calls it all fake news despite the confessions from his lawyer.
And the life of a dictator goes on.....

Or just imagine if Hilary were president and this involved Bill and a porn star payoff ?
Again... oh My god!!!!!
The mighty wrath of the entire US congress would come down upon Hilary.
If that congress were still controlled by the republicans, that is.
And this would go on and on for Hilary's entire term be that 4 years or 8 years.
Endless investigation, unlimited taxpayer money spent despite not directly involving Hilary.
Despite Bill not as the active president, but for republicans that wouldn't matter.
And oh the spin....
Before this was over they would have Hilary paying off the porn star with taxpayer money to protect Bill.
Or, accusing Hilary as having the affair with the female porn star. Then the payoff.
But Trump?
When your orchestrating a political coup with one entire party hijacked and taken over by a dictator, what really matters?

I still can't help but wonder why, with all the other allegations that came up during the campaign of all different sorts, this non issue rates Trump's lawyer potentially getting himself disbarred at minimum for something that didn't happen. $130,000 out of pocket to prevent the fake story from coming out and damaging Trump (his words why he did it) in the face of all the other allegations already on the surface.

A lawyer paying a hooker violates union rules.

Self destruction in service to Trump is kind of a defining characteristic of the people who work for him. So this seems pretty par for the course.

Remember the days when Obama caused the righties to lose their minds just because he wore a tan jacket in the Oval Office?

My my how standards have lowered.

Remember when Hannity had a segment about Obama putting dijon mustard on his burger and that was somehow a scandal? Republicans have brain worms.

Ok, so, if I've got this right, about one month before the election, Trump's personal lawyer wakes up with a wild hair up his ass one morning and decides, for no defined reason, to use an LLC to sign over 130 grand to a porn star. Well, glad that's all cleared up. Moving on...

Hush money paid to cover up an affair, paid just before the election counts. Or..The hush money wasn't done to influence the election; it was likely paid out because Trump didn't want to have any whiff of infidelity in the air when Melania began divorce proceedings. But let him explain that to the investigators.

I guess his lawyers are lawyering up.

Also, didn't John Edwards face criminal charges for exactly the same thing...Notice Cohen is very specific about who did not reimburse him for the payment he made.

Oh shit and when he put his feet up on the desk while on the phone. What an unethical amoral piece of crap that Obama was.
