Today the public will hear from Cohen in live testimony to congress. This man is facing prison for lying to them and if he does so again will get even more time, so he knows better than to lie again. he will be touching on many aspects of Trump that lay at the foundation of what his base finds so attractive and the testimony has the possibility of changing the perceptions that allow Trump to keep them hypnotized or whatever it is. I am creating this poll with the ability to change your vote so we can try to track it and invite everyone who is watching to contribute as they wish and as the hearing transpires.

Let the games begin.
 
The results and responses to this poll should be interesting.

I can't imagine a lifelong liar like Cohen would possibly lie again.
 
Cohen is a liar. That has already been established, but today's games are not a joke.

Today's games have nothing to do with whether Trump is bad or good, whether he should or should not be removed or exonerated. Today's games has only one purpose: To provide the media with something to talk about...something to spin, speculate, hyperbolize and advance innuendo. Today's games are all about next year's election.

Well the good news is we know the FBI is watching and if he does lie, like when he said Trump had nothing to do with Russia, the FBI will charge him with lying to Congress again.

Of course, if the FBI doesn't charge him this time when he implicates Trump...

According to his cult, Trump is evidently the only honest man in America.
 
Public hearings won't reveal much of anything. It's the closed door meeting where the important information will come out.

I had no idea that Congress was a PAC.

They aren't. The Congressional Dems are people who are using taxpayer money for campaign purposes.
 
Even liars sometimes tell the truth. If he does provide a copy of the cheque that Trump Jr signed, Trump Jr is in legal trouble.

WOW!...……...you should file a legal brief and civil action. At least start a blog to make your data public. Maybe just forward the information to Wikileaks....they will probably pay you a nice sum.

No, the results will be predictable. The left will believe every word the guy says, the right will not. The only thing that should be believed from this guy are things he can support with actual evidence. Personally, I think most of what the guy has to say will be the truth. Will he testify to things that never happened? I highly doubt it. Will he embellish to make himself look good and Trump bad? Almost certainly.
 
Before the hearing starts I went with trump should be removed. A president who does little beside belittle people, the institutions of america and the office of the president with his constant lying should be removed from office. Now if only the right would grow some balls and act like the check on the president they are supposed to be, all will be fine. If not, trump can drag the GOP down with him. Their choice.

The republicans are under no obligation to remove a president simply because you are having a hissy fit. We already have a means for removing a president. Its called an election. Beat him in November 2020 and he goes away.

Yep. Prosecutors to Cohen: "Mike, if you knock this outta the park today, you might only be looking at 5 years. You could be out in two. Anything less from you, and I'm afraid there's not much we can do for ya. Sucks, I know, but which one of us here is guilty of tax fraud? That's right. Now, get in there and make us all proud."
 
This is just gonna be a bunch of 5 minute Youtube moments.
 
Today may very well be the 'Joe Valachi Hearings' revisited.

It would be irresponsible to remove a leader only to replace him with someone far worse.

Is he a life long liar or just someone who lied for Trump? Kinda sounds like the lies he was telling before were at the direction of Trump and to protect Trump. Why would a lawyer for Trump tell bald-faced lies to Congress in an effort to protect Trump if Trump hadn't done anything wrong that needed protecting?

Trump is a liar too. Most likely the biggest liar to ever set foot in the marbled halls. Why would one liar be a scoundrel to you yet the other liar is worshipped by you? If Cohen was to clam up and "take the bullet" for Trump, like Roger Stone says he intends to do, he would be your hero.

So, it's obvious to me that liars really do not bother you. I think what really bothers you is when they quit lying for your Lord and Savior, Donald Trump. You would lie for him too. I've seen you do it before.

Birds of a feather, I suppose.

Well, we can't bring Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini or Pol Pot back from the dead. Last I checked Kim Jon Un wasn't Trump's vice president. So I'm not sure there's anybody else that would be in the ballpark of worse. Don't get me wrong Pence would be terrible too, but Trump is a life long criminal, and clearly in over his head.

Based on the Testimony it doesn't sound like even Donald Trump thought the Republican Party would be stupid enough to elect him, yet here you are still defending him.

Trump should not be president, but I love seeing the Right self-destruct defending him. I'll have some more of that, please.
 
Whatever Cohen says has been corroborated by other witnesses, the SDNY and the evidence of the OSC and the FBI.
