Are you more interested in hush money payments and PR moves than war crimes?

Not when the guy telling me he's committed those crimes did what I just described. Cohen has a history of taking multiple actions that personally benefit him, often at the expense and ignorance of his clients. It also clashes with what the Democrats pushed as their narrative, AKA "the man who was perfectly loyal to Trump for years and never strayed the course". None of this came up at all in the testimony from either side even though it is a critical point of consideration for his culpability/capabilities as a reliable witness.

I don't equate financial crimes with war crimes but I'm also not trying to paint Cohen is a positive light here either. Ants post just confused me. Just came off as diversion tactics.

I'm just saying that the dude has some pretty damning evidence and that a spade should be called a spade.

It’s an old fight that both sides have accepted will remain contested. I don’t see it spilling out of Kashmir. Pakistan is entirely in the wrong, btw.

I'm still confused as to why Cohen would publicly turn on his client and publicly destroy any ability he has to have any other client trust him. Like, maybe Cohen is screwed and has legit dirt on his client that he can leverage, cause otherwise I don't see what he stands to gain from this.

Lighter sentence, right?

Everybody squeals when faced with the slamma.

But if he has nothing to squeal with then he has no leverage for a lighter sentence.

^ what he said.
