Nailing Trump as a felon
Laurence Tribe thinks it’s serious for Trump.
WOW: The Dec 7 filing in SDNY on Michael Cohen’s sentencing charges that President Trump (aka “Individual 1”) directed a criminal conspiracy with his attorney Cohen to violate the federal election laws in order to increase his odds of winning the presidency by deceiving voters.

This unambiguously *condemns* the President. If Trump truly feels “cleared” by it, either he just can’t read or he’s totally delusional. https://t.co/CfftRTV7Al

Here’s the 12/7 SDNY memo nailing Trump as a felon who directed a criminal conspiracy to steal the 2016 election. This isn’t Mueller; it’s the US Attorney for Manhattan, untainted by Trump’s hail of attacks. Read especially pgs 11-13 & 23. Devastating :https://t.co/uIc53Hi0ok

“nailing Trump as a felon who directed a criminal conspiracy to steal the 2016 election” – that’s not a parking ticket.
Exactly right, @neal_katyal & @JeffreyToobin. Actually, it’s the first time in the life of our republic. https://t.co/ivpWQ9lgx4

Mueller’s 12/7 sentencing memo re Cohen points to an elaborate scheme coordinated with Trump, Inc. to deceive American voters from mid-2015 to mid-2016 about Trump’s plans to get “hundreds of millions of dollars” from Russian sources. This too is huge:https://t.co/tNMV3cceXj

What people need to get is that it’s not “the money, stupid,” it’s that Trump illegally pulled the wool over your eyes to rig the election in his own favor. Are you gonna let him get away with a crime that tricked you and that would land anyone else in jail? https://t.co/tcoxkq1hqs

I’ve just heard that Trump’s announced the departure ‘before the end of the year’ of John Kelly, his replacement yet to be named. The only certainty is that it will be a yes-man and the appointment will precede a cull of all those in the administration seen as not loyal to the boss but who Kelly refused to fire.
The lunatic probably thinks even now that he can put people in place to protect him from the ‘conflicted’ Mueller.

Nailing him is fine, but at this point I’d be happy with a thorough gluing or the application of a reasonably strong duct tape. Riveting would be much better still, but ideally a good firm weld would hold a set of iron bars good and tight.
Thank you, Not Bruce. I’m glad my mouth was empty when I read that.
