Michael Cohen is a Russian Mobster and His Testimony is Going to Consist of Protecting His Own Ass and Protecting the Russian Mafia

Exhibit One, Cohen's Statement:

https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/27/politics/cohen-testimony-read/index.html

Point One:

"TRUMP IS A RACIST!" is propaganda. It's the media equivalent of yelling "SQUIRREL!".

At one point, people were even trying to paint Trump as an anti-Semite, which is funny since his own daughter married a Jewish man and converted to Judaism.

His personal attorney was Michael Cohen.

"Cohen."

Trump isn't an anti-Semite.

But do you know what uncomfortable truth you're being shielded from?

From Misha Glenny's "McMafia"...

STOP . EMBRACING . IDENTITY . POLITICS .

You're going to get it wrong, EVERY SINGLE TIME if you go down that road.

Every religious group and race has its assholes. For our Jewish friends, the assholes are the Russian mob...like Trump and his extended Russian mob/Russian intelligence family.

Which brings us to my second point...

Point Two:

Michael Cohen is represented by Lanny Davis, who is sitting just behind him in the hearings.

LANNY DAVIS ISN'T A "CLINTON OPERATIVE".

HOWEVER, HE'S AN ATTORNEY WHOSE CLIENTS ARE MEMBERS OF THE RUSSIAN MOB.

I have no idea whether the Clintons are aware of this or not. Either way, it's largely irrelevant.

More to the point, Lanny Davis is presently representing Dmitro Firtash, in fighting Mueller's attempts to extradite Firtash from Austria in the Trump-Russia case.

We're talking about a man who, instead of blaming the Russians, published a book that blamed Comey and the FBI for Hillary's 2016 loss.

These people are NOT helping. They are NOT being totally up front and truthful. They are continuing to protect both themselves and the Russian mafia.

So my expectations and overall excitement about Cohen's next few days' worth of testimony are relatively LOW.

Buuuuuut...

I WILL say that Jim Jordan's and Mark Meadows' blatant fear over Cohen's testimony is VERY interesting.

I hope that Mr. Cohen's testimony concerning Mr. Trump's criminality is helpful. But it is clear to me that Mr. Cohen could offer considerably more damning information than he's providing.

Cohen has stated that he's no longer protecting Trump. I think that's partially true.  But I DO see him protecting the Russian mob.
