Well, at least it gives them a scalp to nail to the wall to justify the tens of millions of dollars already expended over the last two years in an effort to unseat a sitting president.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>But Trump\u2019s enemies are certain that the end is near.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>As Brooke Singman of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/mueller-probe-trump-in-search-of-a-crime\">Fox News<\/a> points out<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Significantly,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/muellers-questions-for-trump-read-the-full-list\">Mueller&#8217;s questions<\/a>\u00a0to Trump included a specific inquiry about any interaction or communication\u00a0Trump may have had with Cohen and others, including foreign nationals, regarding real estate developments in Russia\u00a0during the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>But Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani told Fox News&#8217; Catherine Herridge there is no \u201ccontradiction\u201d with Trump\u2019s answers and they \u201cremain comfortable\u201d with the president&#8217;s responses.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, in response to Thursday&#8217;s plea deal, called Cohen a &#8220;weak person&#8221; and accused him of lying to get out of trouble.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>There was nothing at all illegal about the Trump Organization negotiating a real estate development deal with Russia or anyone else during the campaign, or even in office, for that matter. Perhaps Cohen mis-remembered the date the talks ceased, or perhaps he was \u00a0trying to avoid embarrassment. That embarrassment was not because of any illegality or impropriety but rather has to do with keeping up appearances of confidence in victory. \u00a0It seems obvious that President Trump was hedging his bets, not 100% certain that his campaign would bring victory (as 99%+ of the media and \u201cexperts\u201d predicted), and not torpedoing the process of exploring new business projects, a steady of stream of which is necessary to maintain his activity as a developer.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<div><strong>View the complete article including images, links and comments at:<\/strong><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanthinker.com\/blog\/2018\/11\/msmdems_are_certain_for_the_umpteenth_time_that_the_end_is_near_for_trump_admin_this_time_with_michael_cohen_guilty_plea.html\">https:\/\/www.americanthinker.com\/blog\/2018\/11\/msmdems_are_certain_for_the_umpteenth_time_that_the_end_is_near_for_trump_admin_this_time_with_michael_cohen_guilty_plea.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cohen exits NY federal courthouse after guilty plea (CNN screen grab) American Thinker by Thomas Lifson 11\/30\/2018 Excerpt: Once again, Robert Mueller\u2019s team is nailing a witness they want to use to incriminate President Trump in some nefarious scheme with &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/11339\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11339","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11339","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11339"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11339\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11344,"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11339\/revisions\/11344"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11339"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11339"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wasobamaborninkenya.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11339"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
