“I need to open up a company for the transfer of all of that info regarding our friend David,” Cohen told Trump in the recording, referencing Trump ally and American Media head David Pecker.

Had to read this twice....so David is a Pecker head?

Cohen taped his phone conversations with Trump. That just smells of weasel to me. Maybe it was a CYA move? My guess is he wanted to make sure he got reimbursed by Trump for the $130k he was going to pay to Stormy.

An yet I heard an MSNBC anal-ist comment this morning, "Trump is in a legal hurricane.....with Mueller, Stormy Daniels, Cohen and a law suite from a former Apprentice"

Being a billionaire businessman I'd guess there was not a single day in the last 20 years that he was not involved in multiple legal issues.

When you are rich and powerful, you don't fret....you pay people to fret for you and you go on about your happy life.

I read something recently that said something to the effect that, Trump's poll numbers being so high means people no longer believe the media. Not sure when we ever did. IOW, the public is smart enough to filter the media bias.

Someone has once again destroyed DT's walk of fame star in Hollywood. Trump Derangement Syndrome is a bad drug.

So CNN has a copy of Trump/Cohen conversation. Atty/client privileged information. Is this some of the items seized by the Feds during their raid on Cohen's offices? Seems all the civil rights 'alphabet' groups would be protesting this violation of the President's rights. Where's the outrage?

Consistenly inconsistent, leftwing trademark.

yeah, i'm a bit confused by this. although there are rules regarding attorney client privilege. for instance if you said, i'm going to murder someone tonight, they can tell. other exceptions exist but i don't know what they are.

And releasing something seized during a search warrant while the investigation is ongoing???

This NEVER happens.

I just chalk it up to more ridiculousness from those who want to get rid of our DULY ELECTED President. This won't work either and next week they'll be on to something else to try. LOL

I found this at legal website:

Attorney-Client Privilege

Definition

A legal privilege that works to keep communications between an attorney and his or her client secret. The privilege is asserted in the face of a legal demand for the communications, such as a discovery request or a demand that the lawyer testify under oath. Contrast with attorney's duty of confidentiality.

Attorney's Duty of Confidentiality

Definition

The ethical duty of a lawyer not to affirmatively disclose information related to the representation of a client. Unlike the attorney-client privilege, the duty of confidentiality is in effect at all times, not just in the face of legal demands for client information.

Cohen's legal career is over. He needs to find a job at MSNBC or CNN bashing Trump or learn how to drive a Zamboni because, even if he is not disbarred, he will have a hard time finding clients. Who would hire a lawyer that secretly taped conversations with clients?

That's a good point. Why/who would want it or benefit from it being leaked? Cohen? The prosecution? Trump-haters? I really don't see it benefitting anyone. It doesn't prove or disprove anything....both sides just spin it to assert it makes their case.

I love Zambonis! That is my dream job! Drive around the ice before the game.....then watch the hockey game.....after each period drive around the ice. Why is that such a great job?

1. It has a very specific objective - smooth the ice
2. It is a cool and clean environment - unlike mowing grass in the hot sun or plowing a dusty field
3. Beer, hotdogs, big doughy pretzels and a hockey game to watch on your breaks
4. Your breaks are longer than your work periods!
5. You can instantly see the impact of your labor and feel like you actually accomplished something

Why is it a good gig for Cohen? Because he was known for 'smoothing things over' so this is right up his alley.
