Bill, don't be a ninny. Cohen is small fry, to be sure. But the real sleazeballs are the ones destroying the rule of law in NY state, and elsewhere by their banana republic style persecutions of Trump.

Love him or hate him, (and it's clear you hate him) Trump was no more or less crooked than any other NYC developer navigating thru a crooked system.

The same is true of Trump the politician. And if he can be bought (and I don't accept that he can) His price is much higher than the petty grifting we've seen him accused of.

I don't feel sorry for Trump. My crimes were much less than his yet I did a bullet. He'll do not a day. Even if every realtor in NY did what he did, he's still a smug and smarmy nausea-inducing slob who knows nothing about running a country.

You are aware that there are approximately 52 other cases like his that have been prosecuted.
