1. Trump's worse nightmare continuing

Especially when there may be proof of it other than Cohen's word. More tapes ? Is he being set up ? I think from many different directions, and being played . He has patterns .

it would be huge! It sure does seem like more than a coincidence that the emails were released right after the Access Hollywood tapes, and if Trump orchestrated it...

3. I thought the wiki leaks of some Podesta emails

happened the same day as the pussy tape reveal.

Within hours (almost like it was coordinated to steal the news cycle).

October 7, 2016.

On October 7, 2016, during the 2016 United States presidential election, The Washington Post published a video and accompanying article about then-presidential candidate Donald Trump


On October 7, 2016, WikiLeaks began publishing thousands of emails from Podesta's Gmail account

So... I'm not sure what it means that Trump spent the next day (Saturday the 8th) talking about the "convenient" release of the stolen DNC emails.

to violate U.S. election laws in numerous ways. You can't put the bride and groom on top of the cake until the layers below are finished. Keep in mind that Cohen's trial in SDNY was an off-shoot of Mueller's investigation and as such had to be conducted 'in the light of day' so to speak. I'm frankly amazed at this point that we still have virtually zero leaks from within the investigation itself. Manafort's next trial is likely to pull the covers off of some very unseemly goings-on in the Ukraine and with some of the principals in this opera, namely the Russians. We're going to see a lot more of the Russia-GOP connections exposed in the next few weeks.
