Bloomberg: Trump should be worried about Cohen Probe. REALLY WORRIED.

https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2018-04-16/trump-cohen-and-mueller-a-turning-point-in-the-presidency

"the Southern District can investigate potential Trump crimes in any area connected to Cohen, a fixer who is known to have arranged payoffs to an adult film star who says she had an affair with Trump. These prosecutors can go back as far as they want before the election, not to mention during and after it.

And there’s essentially nothing Trump can do about it. He can’t fire the career civil servant prosecutors who are now on the job. And practically, he can’t order the Southern District to stop investigating him, because such an order would likely be construed by the prosecutors there as a criminal obstruction of justice."

He never tweets “NO MONEY LAUNDERING” or “NO RACKETEERING” or “NO TAX EVASION”

It's hard to believe there are that many intellectually sterile people in our country. People who are perfectly content to subsist on a steady diet of FOX Noise, who'll dance to any tune the GOP propaganda Wurlitzer plays for them, and never, never question any of the official party doctrine, no matter how bizarre or contradictory.

40% of Americans. They are not paying attention!

Inadmissible, whatever. He will be fighting tooth and nail and, unfortunately, just heard on LO tonight he got two really excellent top tier democratic lawyers to represent him.

- No hookers!
- No pee!
- No spanking!
- No emolem..emulo... whatever they are, there are none of them! If they're bad. They sound bad. So, no...them.

"That's it, sir! You're sounding more and more Presidential every day!"

Despite many check-ins with what I THINK is objective reality, I can still scarcely believe that this is really happening.
