Рет қаралды 703,418
Күн бұрынAndrew Weissmann, former top prosecutor at the Justice Department, Susanne Craig, New York Times Investigative Reporter, Vaughn Hillyard, NBC News Correspondent join Nicolle Wallace on Deadline White House with live reaction to the Michael Cohen cross-examination, which is showing flaws in the competence of Trump’s defense team, and shows how his lawyers are playing more to appeasing their client then trying to get their client acquitted by a jury.

Dems have been saying Trump is an authoritarian, a dictator, a liar, he will ruin Democracy. Well folks the Dems are ruining our Democracy right in front of your eyes. In this trail of 17 or 18 days the prosecution has not answered the question or proven "what is the actual crime Trump commited". They havent proven anything because there is no crime. Just as in the Trump Russia collusion hoax, that has been proven that Trump never colluded. READ THE DURHAM REPORT. If not the entire report read Durhams summary. In it he states that he is worried about our Country because the things brought up against Trump should have never been. He states the kind of tactics done by FBI, CIA etc. are what third world countries do to opposing persons running for office. The Dems have run over our Constitution and laws. They are tearing down Democracy. For one more example, allowing trans Men to compete in Womens sports over riding Article 9, so that any (no matter what color) Woman will no longer be able to win athletic scholarships for education.

Just like any subject matter expert can effectively and competently play a devil's advocate when discussing said subject matter, thus proving subject expertise and mastery.

At the risk of sounding ridiculously obvious, Micheal Cohen is not on trial here. He is a material witness in a trial which is being held to determine the culpability of an individual in a crime which Mr Cohen has intimate knowledge of. All this handwringing about his motives, his character, his personality, his contrition or whatever are not germane to the case. The question is, did the defendant willfully participate and orchestrate a crime? Yes, Nichole Wallace is a great anchor and yes Mr Weissman is a breath of fresh air, but can we please get back on point? This jury will ultimately be asked to judge DJT. Mr Cohen has already had his day of judgement.

I totally respect the opinion of Andrew Weissman. He's not been wrong on his conclusions so far that I've seen. Very intelligent and wise man. And TFG shutting his eyes during court, is as disrespectful as it gets. He's nothing but a coward who wants to get away with all his cons and criminal things he's done. Very much like a child having a temper tantrum. Immature and idiotic for a man who's almost 78.

It takes a brave person to see the light and redeem his or her life. Michael Cohen redeemed himself, his credibility is renewed.

Don't know the man's name who's sitting in on this round table, but I think he hit the nail on the head about trump closing his eyes; '' its the eyes, the eyes being shut, I don't know if he's sleeping or not, but it shows his defiance of the process....I don't care about the proceedings of this process, with the jury right there''. trump imagines himself so high and mighty, he's somewhere on his own cloud above this entire court case. To him its just an annoying irritant that he's trying to will it to just go away and if he squawks long and loud enough when out on the street, he will command and direct the show and take control. He is the epitome of delusional. If he gets away with it the consequences are unimaginable.

This question is never raised. If Trump is reelected there is a fair chance that he will manage to be President for life. Some may say, well he his 78 years old. It can't be for very very long. Now the question: who will succeed? An other Trump? Is USA will become another North Korea? These young voters who may vote for Trump because they don't like Biden, are they realizing it may be their last fair election in their long expecting live? We can say the same thing for the older Trump supporters about their children or grand children. I don't understand these billionaires supporting Trump. The best benefit of their wealth is the liberty coming with it. The best way to protect this liberty is a democratic system. Do they believe that billionaires in Russia or China are as much free than those in USA? Of course not, far from it.
