PAUL MANAFORT and MICHAEL COHEN, each 8 counts, on the same day??? OMG.

One new convicted felon and one new admitted felon, both key figures in Trump world.

And Michael Cohen pled guilty to assisting Trump in committing a crime.

Don't let those deadlocked charges concern you -- TODAY WAS A GIANT WIN FOR THE PROSECUTIONS.

And the funny part is -- Cohen supposedly isn't cooperating. But what he did was plead guilty to breaking the law at the direction of He-who-shall-not-be-named.

So he isn't cooperating . . . he's just fingering his co-conspirator.

I am smirking at them all, especially Mr. Temper Tantrum...

Now that they have been convicted, all eyes should squarely rest on rump himself...guilty as hell, lock him up!!
