"...there will never be a peaceful transition of power..."

Link to tweet

One of the most chilling statements from Michael Cohen today: “Given my experience working for Mr. Trump, I fear that if he loses the election in 2020 that there will never be a peaceful transition of power, and this is why I agreed to appear before you today.”

Another one of Putin's directives, no doubt.
